Skippy

Have had our first encounter with a kangaroo wth a baby in her pouch.  They were having a drink of water next to a pub.  The baby roos do seem to be all arms and legs and really a bit big for mum to have to carry around.

We are off for a holiday from our holiday tomorrow to Ledge Point which is next to the Indian Ocean so watch out for pictures of Martin on a surf board.  Where we have been staying is a bit inland but has a beautiful 50 metre pool in the local town.  As you can se from the picture below it is relatively quiet.

Had a very traditional weekend with a curry on Friday night where the staff were amazed that Martin could eat a Vindaloo and kept coming out to see how he was getting on.  On Sunday we went for Sunday lunch at the Rose and Crown pub in Guildford. See photo below.  The temperature was about 37 degrees but Aussies still seem to like their roast lunches.

  Afterwards we went to the cinema (if only to get out of the heat) and saw the King's Speech.  Very apt as the speech therapist was an Aussie from Perth.  The locals certainly seemed to enjoy the irreverant pokes at the monarchy
