Where did September go?  In my last post I said that spring was close to springing – and almost as soon as it did we got grey skies, wind and rain.  Added to that John had to have a skin cancer removed from his leg which was of a sufficient size to need a skin graft – so before hand he was sore, and after he’s been very stoic about his recovery keeping him housebound for 2 weeks.  His recovery has been going well, but he’s looking forward to getting back to normal.  And so am I!

So between the inclement weather, university commitments and recuperating there’s not been very much venturing out in our household.  I’ve enjoyed the university course so much I am thinking about going back as a real student to do a graduate diploma in italian – but as we have a trip planned in the first half of next year, it wouldn’t be until second semester and very definitely part time.

So, coming up is our trip to Brisbane – we booked 5 nights on Heron Island before we moved here, so it’s a chance to do that and catch up with friends and family in Brisbane as well.  And it will be warm!!
