DH just rang to ask if I wanted to go away for a few days next week... what timing! It will narrow it down a bit further but we'll only be away 2 nights. I suggested the Yarra Valley Sebel... close to home but with air con and an indoor pool! DH's work paid for our last stay there... it was great. Also it's close to a local Polish chicken breeder where we were hoping to pick up two friends for Tina!

Oh short courses Maya!!! Sounds great! My motto (an old aboriginal saying) this year was meant to be "The more you know, the less you need" trying to reign in a bit of spending! But my logic is that a class doesn't count :P I'm thinking French. Hope you make that drama class Maya!
