Very Quickly

Heya!

I have been meaning to sit down and write you an e-mail but it has been pretty crazy here.

The saga that has been the Today Show! My goodness! We spent close to two hours walking the length of the Thames River from Big Ben to Tower Bridge and didn't find where they were!! BUT we are going again tonight because now I know exactly where they are! Four of us are going and we've signs to put up...he he he, we'll see how it goes.

I have been reading your e-mails with great interest, I love them so much! They make me laugh. Yeah and coming home on the coach hearing 'In the Ghetto' did bring back memories looking out over the lake after dark...Erin tells me I am insane for being at work after dark. I keep reminding her I wasn't the only one that was there...

So I officially start in the office here on the 4th of November. Which means I reach the shores of Oz again sometime in the second week of November next year. Gosh that seems such a long time away. Actually I had a family thing to go to (not that I know many here, only had met the one person!) on Monday night and I was walking back in the rain with my brolly and my nice pants and my boots and this lady asked me for directions and I knew exactly where to tell her to go. I sort of walked on a bit further and went, wholly shit, I am like living in London. Like I know where things are, I'm walking the streets at night and I kinda sorta have a life out of Pax Lodge. I tell you it was the freakiest thing. And try as I might, I couldn't remember what it FELT like living in Melbourne. I mean I know what I did every day...but I can't remember how it felt, if you can kinda get what I mean. It's a little weird you know..

So can't believe you only have 8 weeks left...gosh that's gone so quickly. Keep your chin up as your in the home stretch, you go girl!! Hope your dinner didn't burn and I'll be sending through an 'update' e-mail in the next couple of days.
Take care chica and talk soon,

Rachael :-)
