G'day!! Well Tasmania was amazing- SO beautiful, fresh air. lush vegetation, alpine mountains, lakes and waterfalls, and so much wildlife!!! LOVED IT. We started off in Hobart the capital, a town rather than city. Explored the harbour, ate fish and chips, the surprisingly good museum, Mount Wellington and the famous Salamanca market. Watched the footy grand final (St Kilda were robbed!) in our hotel Prince of Wales and were filmed for Tassy TV! Lovely place...

She is doing about 15 shows just in Melbourne, a massive tour round Australia and I would definately recommend seeing it if she comes to the UK. (Better tha...

Greetings and salutations to our avid readers and fan base of approximately one! We have been a little disheartened by the sheer dearth of comments being left (that haven't included the mighty ICT's freefall in to the depths of the Scottish League) and Leah reckons that our page is in need of a bit of Steve magic.
