Julie, DH is now a public servant, doing sort of financially-type stuff (don't wish to put all readers into a coma with details). Before this he was a quasi-accountant (works as one but doesn't have an accounting degree). We are hopeful of him winning a job in the NSW public service up in Coffs Harbour or, if we're extremely lucky, Lismore or Murwillumbah.
Cool name - Balaklava!
Oh, agree totally on electric cars. I have an electric-powered bicycle, it is wonderful (I used it to commute in Sydney, amazingly only had one serious accident, given how dangerous the roads there are).
Hmmm, the sling solution for a fussy baby! Never tried it, now I have the Ergo I will see if it works.
...I'm a census nerd, I filled it in the day we got it (I knew no-one else was going to be here last night)
