It's all gotta go

Mick is on the ebay treadmill at present. He is trying to get rid of as much stuff as possible whilst gaining some $ for anything of value and I mean anything. I think sometimes if I sit still long enough, he will take a photo of me and put it on ebay - one wife, going cheap, in good used condition....

All our preparations are coming together. We are still waiting to hear back from QANTAS to see if they have decided to sponsor our airfares.

Back from holiday, now down to preps

It was wonderful to travel to Victoria during the school holidays to catch up with Marcus, Susan and the kids. The boys all enjoyed sharing the time with their cousins and the cooler weather. Now that we know for certain that we are heading to West Africa next year, it was great rug up and enjoy one final winter for a while. We were fortunate as well, to then head to Mount Buller for a week in the snow. Whilst the white stuff wasn't exactly abundunt to begin with, a 25cm fall in just over a day was an answer to prayer and a joy to behold. Jack and Mark had a great time at ski school and Harry knocked himself out learning to toboggan. We had a refreshing holiday and now it is full steam ahead with our preparations for the next stage of our journey.
