Brrr it's cold in Canberra

Last week the children and I were in Canberra having a few admin appointments before our move there in January. Coming from the lovely tropical climate of Darwin to inland NSW during August/September was a bit of a shock. It was so cold!!!! My 3 year old daughter is contemplating joining a nudist colony and to see her resentment of winter woolies was hilarious. Though she did walk into school (in Darwin) with her beanie and tutu on the other day?

Sorry I don't have any pictures to share of our Canberra adventures as someone (I wont mention anyone's name) broke our camera before the trip. Canberra is so family friendly and we are really looking forward to the move. We visited Questacon and spent 5 hours walking around the new exhibits that have arrived since our last stay. Parliament House and the War Memorial our also great locations to take the family with a hundred others waiting for us in the new year. If you ever go past the Russell offices and see the large Eagle on the concrete pillar, the Forbes' have renamed it "Chicken on a stick".

I was also very lucky to see Posie's new "headquarters" for 2008. Can't wait to be set up with Jennie, working up a storm!!! A whole new batch of Peggy-Jean and Posie products has headed south to Meet me at Mikes so if you are in Melbourne take a drive to Bridge Road Richmond and say Hi to Pip.

Hopefully I will have some sort of pictures available in the next post. Till then stay safe and happy!!!
