G'day and bonjour you lucky people! You've landed smack bang in the middle of a Stephen blog! Oh YES, I hear you say despite your salivating in anticipation. Oh yes indeed, but be further intrigued with the knowledge that Leah has allowed me complete control of what I post here! This could get messy! I have digressed marginally from my blogging I fear, so with no further ado... Last Friday was spent watching a hybrid of Aussie Rules Football and Gaelic Football...

JOKE OF THE WEEK So, we fulfilled the lifelong dream to swim with dolphins last week which was AMAZING! On the boat were about 30 folk but we were split into smaller groups myself and Stephen with 3 Welsh lassies. It took us a good 3 hours to FIND the elusive dolphins at which point this joke came about: Welsh lass #1 : "I've seen more dolphins in Aberystwyth" Leah: "Don't you mean Wales?" True story.

Does anybody know how long it takes to drive across Austral...

G'day from AUSTRALIA!!! This is Leah and I am SO EXCITED to finally be in this country it's unbelievable!! I was practically jumping up and down as we landed; although the landing was very bumpy (apparently it always is into Perth) and Stephen looked like he didn't care where we were as long as it was no longer in the air! Just like when mum and dad came out we were greeted by a torrential downpour and freezing wind- yet that still didn't phase me! We are s...
