Saturday 25 February – Singapore
Goodness I slept well! Despite the time difference, I slept through and had a nice breakfast with Christina de la Sala who arrived late last night and is also staying in the Ed and Justinna Pank hotel. She is a big fan of Tim so we had a nice chat about him! I then headed…

Friday 24 February – to Singapore
Early start to get to the airport, though needless to say Amanda was up and out with the dogs before I left. I was so sorry to say goodbye to her. She has been so unbelievably kind to me and we have had just the best time together. Having only met Amanda a handful of…

Thursday 23 February – Last Day in Sydney 😔
One last early morning walk with ‘the girls’ – Luna and Piper – and to say goodbye to Michelle and Elly. The mornings are getting darker (all so upside down!) so the dogs had illuminated collars and we had torches! It looked as though the rain was going to continue, but in fact it was…

Wednesday 22 February – Sydney
There were two last things to tick off on my list for Sydney and that was the Rocks and the MCA – Museum of Contemporary Art. Lovely Amanda agreed to join me, but as it was pouring with rain we decided to do ‘The Rocks’ by car! The Rocks is the most historic part of…

Tuesday 21 February – Sydney
I can’t believe, I only have three more days in Australia/Sydney and confess to feeling quite wobbly about the prospect of leaving, after two wonderful months. I have seen so many incredible places and been spoilt by so many lovely people and really have been rather blown away by it all. In particular, I think,…

Monday 20 February – back to Sydney
We woke to the most beautiful day and said a sad farewell to out little house. We thought we would drop by the Three Sisters one more time, as we could not really see the third ‘sis’ yesterday in the mist; they were looking pretty glorious today. There was also some black cockatoos in the…

Sunday 19 February – Blue Mountains
We woke to a rather misty morning so had quite a gentle start to the day in the hope that it might lift, but sadly no. So we headed to the well known Three Sisters which were unfortunately somewhat shrouded in mist and by this time also, Chinese tourists. We had a quick chat with…

Saturday 18 February – to The Blue Mountains
Bit a of noisy night as the neighbours were having a really good party till the early hours, so my plan to rise at five to take the dogs for a walk with Michelle did not quite materialise. I made them porridge for their return and packed my bags for the Blue Mountains. Gibbsy arrived…

Thursday 16 & Friday 17 February – Sydney
Thursday was a bit of a catch-up/admin day but ended with a lovely dinner with gorgeous Hamish Baxter and his lovely girlfriend Larissa. We had just the nicest evening at a Korean Restaurant which, much to our surprise, we found in the middle of a shopping mall in China Town. Regardless, it was utterly delicious,…

Wednesday 15 February – back to Sydney
Today has been a bit of a travelling day as we bid farewell to our dear little house and the Sunshine Coast. For me back, to beautiful Sydney and Diana on to Melbourne. We heard, last night, our kayaking/Dolphin trip which we hoped to squeeze in this morning had again been cancelled due to the…
