Ok, it’s been hectic since I got back, and I didn’t have a chance to write anything about our weekend in Sydney, but, we had an absolutely fantastic time. The city is very, very cool! Aside from the weather, which, as I’ve already mentioned, was more Irish than Australian for the weekend, we had a [...]

I’m working in Sydney this week, and Kassie and I are staying down for the weekend, which is really very cool. But, I’ve noticed that Sydney is just like Dublin, it’s bloody freezing! Compared to back home in Brisbane, where the temp still climes to 24 or so during the day, it’s only getting to [...]
Grrr! That’s about all I can say to Singapore Air’s 20kg baggage restriction. The amount of fantastic books, clothes, and bits and bobs that I have spent a lifetime collecting have been sold, given away or thrown out over the past few weeks.

I have no internet access in the hotel, and haven’t really been there long enough to write anything anyways, so, I’ll save the updates for later. Having a fab time in Amsterdam, seeing hundreds of MINI’s driving along the roads of Holland is so [...]
Ready, set, and (almost) go! The bags are just about packed, MINI is about ready to go (need to give her a final clean and put all her MINI United stickers on tonight) and I’ve just worked out my final route to Zandvoort. I get the ferry from Dublin to Holyhead tomorrow, head over to [...]
