well tonight is our last night in sydney and we've had a great time over the two weeks we've stayed here. the two weeks have gone very quickly, and it doesn't seem like 9 weeks ago that we arrived in australia!
tomorrow morning we have an hours flight up to byron bay where we are staying for 5 nights before heading up to john's house.
last night we met erin at the pub near her work for a drink then went for something to eat. after that we got a bus into sydney and went to minus5, a bar made entirely of ice. unfortunately we weren't allowed to take the camera in, but we do have a photo that we bought from the bar. we're just waiting for them to upload it onto to the net so we can put it on here.
the bar was amazing, we were allowed 30 minutes in the ice room and had a cocktail, the glass it was in was also made of ice. everything in the bar, the walls, tables, chairs, sculptures and the bar were made of ice. it was -15 degrees inside and by the time we left all our hands were freezing, despite getting coats, gloves and ugg boots to wear.
tonight we are hoping to go and see lilly allen down at luna park in sydney. luna park is a very old theme park next to the harbour bridge. amy can't wait to see lilly allen. hopefully there will be tickets left!
we'll post again as soon as we can, maybe if we find a spare 15 minutes to use an internet cafe in byron bay. but we will definitely put pictures up when we get to john's house.
hope everyone is well and made the most of the snow in marple. x

Sydney is a great place and well worth a visit.
In the short time we were there we managed to check out the regular tourist spots......
..... but if anyone wants to know about the bits of Sydney that don't make the tourist guide then get in touch!!
We have some good stories to tell.........
sorry Hayley I have been very very busy but I will get on the case this weekend. all blog commenters are invited to the Royal Scot Friday 9.30pm onwards for birthday drinks...
Amy and Greg! will see you in the Scott tonight at 9.30!!!
(Dave, if i dont make it, sorry i am going for a meal which was pre arranged, have a good night!)
I went onto myspace to show my housemate "the best photo ever" - of Greg catching a fiercely struck football like a girl - and it's not there, it's been replaced by photo's of Aus, which can be found on here!. Sort it!!!
