This is the plan.


Really is a pretty city Ballarat, and only a hop skip and a jump from Nigeria via the Western freeway.

Speaking of which, I'd best be heading off to bed..... I really need my beauty sleep as Malcolm pointed out earlier.

I don't get cold enough for heating but the kids whinge and put on the gas heater occasionally. Just using it for a few hours for a handful of days made my gas bill explode.

My wife sleeps alone in winter because she needs the room 25deg and leccy blanket and I sleep with the window open.
