Maya - will check out the local rag, pity you don't get a picture too!!!

Rory - have fun in Canberra, sounds like you've planned it well with plenty of stops. Unfortunately, me and camping don't go, I can't stand it. Bit of a snob when it comes to where I sleep and shower lol!!!! Fingers crossed for lovely weather.

Bath - sorry to hear you are not yourself. I'm had to absolutely PML about the CBF's!!!!! Our receptionist wondered what I was laughing about - oh nothing I told her!!!! I am going to use that saying now. I have a case of them frequently. Regarding time away, DH and I do so many separate things due to his work hours and limited babysitters. Something I am very used to now after 14 years together. He would never organise anything though, I always do! The ferry was so good, I want to do it again but from Sorrento to Queenscliff this time. Could you and DH go out and you organise a babysitter? I would be happy to come and look after your little brood and let you and DH have a night out. We all need a bit of time away from the house and kids. I am a cold fish and love my electric blanket, DH hates it and is very warm and toasty. Totally opposite to you. While we were away, we had a queen bed + single in our room, DH had to sleep on the single Saturday night as he was so restless and snoring his head off. I needed him as far away as possible!!! It must be so frustrating for you but I agree that having a nights sleep on your own is bliss! I love when DH is on night shift and I get a whole 7 days of hogging whatever part of the bed I like. I keep thinking of your saying "this too will pass"! We might have to give it a name like Baths Law or Baths Theory? Seriously though, I hope you get a good nights sleep tonight and tomorrow is a new day, hopefully a better one than today.
