Had to buy sunblock today … sorry all you Orangeites with minus 4… but it gets incredibly hot here.
House meeting ended with groups going out on shopping patrol… we got the market… so good chance to practice numbers and food names.
Markets are a variation on the worldwide market theme selling everything from dodgy pirated DVDs, unidentifiable local food stalls and an amazing array of fruit and veggies…
We happened upon a festival today at the main square and took a heap of pictures. There really is something about watching a brigade of women, holding a machine gun!!! anyway where was I…
Tomorrow we head out and have an orentation day with the rest of the houses, and will get a brief on whats expected from us over the next 4 weeks.
Hi guys – good to read about your adventures. I’m on uni break and back to work full time. I don’t know how I managed that. Also HD and CR for assignments. Big YAY for me!
I look forward to reading more, maybe Gord can cook the other contestants if it gets too much in the BB house?!

Thanks for the news.
Helen and I enjoyed our days in Dubbo and are heading for Newcastle for a long weekend. H will return to the big O to ensure the economy remains afloat while I see the elders in Sydney before escaping to the Sunny Coast for a week with Brad and the girls. .. the pensioner’s retort.
I have no idea where we’ll go for dinner on Wed night after snooker without your guidance, let alone what we’ll order when we get whereever.
Sonia, I imagine your colour allows you to blend in perfectly. They may even keeep you.
As always .. enjoy
