We are back!!

Its been 2 weeks now since we got back from our European travels, so we are definitely back in the swing of work and life down under.

After 6 weeks of curries, pizzas and pints of ciders – we are attempting a detox!! No alcohol, no caffeine, no processed food, plenty of exercise and sleep. We feel great, and I had no idea weekends could be so long. Every day we avoid alcohol we put money in a pint glass, (its called Ness & Mackys Piss Pot) and sometime in September, we’ll do something great with the cash we’ve saved up. Not sure what yet, maybe a 24 hour bender somewhere!

I am joking… (ish)

So since we got back there has only been 1 day, so far, where we did have alcohol – and mine was only 2 glasses of rose. It barely counts does it.

Sally, Simon, Benjamin & Louise have been in Hamilton Island, (Great Barrier Reef island) and got back last week, so it was great to see them again after 8 weeks! They got the airport bus to our house and then stayed the night with us, we had Louise in our room who woke up at 6.30 (not bad for a work day) and was playing with all mine and Macky’s old teddies, very sweet.

Due to no hangovers on weekends, we’ve been off at the market for 9am! And guess what, other people were there as well!! Its amazing really. I also have spent hours tidying out drawers, cupboards and something that even disturbed me – I folded all our carrier bags and sorted them into neat and labelled bigger bags. I am really turning into my mother. All I need now is to perfect a fruitcake recipe, and I am Ange.

Last Saturday night we drove (yes drove!) down to nearby suburb Brighton to try out a curry house that had a good name, its was “ok” service and bits of the food were good, but the main event curry was just mediocre. Its so disappointing really.

Tasha & Max are house sitting for some of our friends who have cats, so me & the big fella are home alone again, hence the detox is easier!
