Still no luck on the work front but it has only been a week, I've been firing my CV off to every admin role I can find and there's loads of them! We're trying to see what Steve needs in order for him to work in an electrical role but there's nothing apparent that we can find other then he needs a licence but it's getting difficult to get any info out of anyone, I remember this situation well! We're all off to Noosa Heads on the Sunshine coast this weekend, going...

You all know what we're like but i'll try to update a bit more frequen...

Moments later we got a call for a viewing, 2hrs later we had a buyer!!! At this moment in time I'm freezing me ass off in the van having cleaned and washed everything today wi...

Before we got to Brisbane we went to Steve Irwin's zoo, which was brilliant, I Love all things to do with animals and this really didn't let down. Because it's slightly out of season there wasn't a lot of people here which was nice, we saw the huge tortoises being feed, went to the crocoseum for the daily show about all the different animals kept there, it was nice and sunny too which made it a really good day. My highlight was the Tiger talk which we were lucky...
