The internet has stopped working in our house (I think they stopped paying for it given we're going to be moving) so I went into town to Peter Pan's so they could find a campervan for me. However, when I was looking last night they were a lot more expensive than I thought they would be, so whilst I was waiting for an advisor to be free (they kept seeing people that had come in after me before me) I was looking through the brochures for tours, and so I decided I'd...

We knew the house was getting knocked down at the end of January, but obviously that wouldn't affect me and Alice as we are leaving on the 14th. However for some reason the council hadn't told Joe it was actually going to be knocked down on a date rumoured to be around the 5th/6th, which meant we would have to move out this weekend. There's another house in Caulfield North, but that only has space for 12 people, and so me and Alice are one of the selected ones to...

Lucas shared out his Christmas sweets including some crystallised chestnuts that I had never tried befo...

I had my Christmas manicure from Grandpa booked in for 11 am, so I walked to Chapel Street. To me, my nails looked fine before but it occurred to me that whilst the lady was removing my cuticles, they would probably shock a manicurist. It wasn't quite the Elle and Paulette relationship in Legally Blonde, as they were all Asian, and talking amongst themselves, and I don't think they had a very good English vocabulary. I found it funny that I had to soak my nails i...

One of the dresses I brought in Thailand has ripped, so I thought I'd try and save it by turning it into a skirt, so I sewed that whilst sunbathing. It looked like it had the potential to be nice, but when I tried it on, it needed more loops to thread the waist belt through, to ruffle it in a nicer way. Having already spent an hour or so on it, I gave up there so I don't know whether I'll continue or just give up the project, but at least I felt a bit more produc...
