I HAVE MY SECOND YEAR VISA!!!! woo hoo Yep its offical I will be staying in Oz for a while yet! Immigration checked up on me, they asked me to send evidence and they also rang my farmer to make sure I had done all the work, which of course I had and then they granted it, I was so happy!!

Like I said in my last update my plans are forever changing and guess what they have changed again!! I plan to leave here in a few weeks then me and Jen are heading to Cairns, prob stay there for a month then we are off to New Zealand in November for 2 months, we will be spending Xmas and New Year at my Cousin Lisa's apartment, unfortunatly she will be here in Oz for Xmas and New Year but said we can still stay at her's and have a pre Xmas dinner before she goes away, I haven't seen her for about 4 years so i'm really excited.

I'm still working on the basil patch but my last day there will be saturday then i'm hoping to get on another farm for a few weeks to save some money, we haven't been getting very good hours lately so not saved as much as i'd like!

Don't think I mentioned this before but I had a little friend in my room a few weeks ago.............. A MOUSE!!! I heard it running around one night then the next night we set a trap and as soon as we turned the light off and got in to bed it was caught in the trap! it was massive it could possibly have been a rat!! Thankfully there hasnt been any since!!

Jen and I are going to treat ourselves to a Chinese next week as she has got her visa aswell.
