I'm going to another music festival next weekend. See link above. Triple J is a national radio station here. They are hosting the event.

The festival is being held in the tiny little village of Tumby Bay about 700km from Adelaide. We are driving up after work on Friday and then home again after the concert on Sunday.

Then a couple of weeks later I'm going to do a 8000feet tandem dive. First time for me. Will I be able to jump, or will I chicken out I wonder?

Fleurieu Wknd & Future Music Festival

Here's a few pics of where me and some of the girls stayed this weekend. We went down south and stayed in a friend's 'beach shack' for a couple of days. We had a surfing lesson (and I surprised myself no end by getting up a couple of times!!) and then went for a horseride along the beach. Lots of fun.

There is also a picture that was taken at the Future Music Festival on Monday. The light show was part of the Chemical Bros set, which was very good.

Today is mum's 60th... I've tried to call a few times and not been able to get through. So happy birthday! Hope you have a great day.

Next weekend I am going down south to the Fleurieu Peninsula for a girls weekend.

We have hired a holiday house and have booked to do a surfing lesson and to go for a horse ride along the beach... and of course there will be some cocktails and eating out!

Here is a link to the house where we will be staying:

It belongs to a friend of a friend... so we have got it for a really cheap price.. $160 for the whole weekend.. between 5 of us! Bargain!

Adelaide Fringe is almost over :-(

But we have a Public Holiday on Monday and I am going to the Future Music Festival :-)

Click on link to see interior of the house where I live.. there have been some changes since the photos were taken... eg the kitchen wall is no longer blue but slate grey.. and some new sofas and dining table.. but it gives you the general idea!

We've hit Fringe season here in Adelaide. So it means I'm out loads at shows. Last night I went to see a really funny comedian. Her show was called 'how to get almost anyone to shag you'. Highly recommended! It was a hot night though and we were crammed into a small tent with just a fan to cool us down. So by the time we left, everyone looked post coital and definitely less shaggable! It was a sweaty affair! ;-)

More comedy lined up for this week. And doing another big cycle race this Sunday. Coast to Coast. For mum and dad's benefit (who know a bit about the geography) it's from Glenelg to Vitcor Harbour. 120kms. The last ride I did was in the Adelaide Hills a couple of weeks ago. It was supposed to be 80kms, but got chatting to this boy. We missed a turn off sign and got lost! Found our way back, but it added another 25kms to the ride! Worse still, when he took his helmet and glasses off, he was decidedly less attractive than I had imagined! Darn it! My friend says that this is an inexperienced error. And I should always get cyclists boys to take their helmets and sunnies off immediately. They can hide a multitude of sins! ;-)

I went out in my friend's small aerobatic aircraft yesterday. Pictures to follow.

Hope all is well with you my scattered family.

Has Kelly fallen off the face of the Earth?

Hello from Down Under! How are you all? Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Hope you all had a great time.

So what have I been doing over the holidays? Well, Christmas Day I went to my friend Louisa's house... (she lives 5mins up the road)... and we had a pool party. Was great fun. We spent most of the day in the pool splashing around and drinking... and then half way through the day we had this massive turkey dinner.... well I didn't... me and another veggie had fish... but all the same it was quite a surreal experience to be hot and in a bikini munching on roast potatoes and gravy!

Boxing Day I went down south with a few friends from the gym and we spent a few days on the Fleurieu Peninsula coast. Hired a beach holiday cottage and just spent our time sunbathing and relaxing.

Then went to Perth for a couple of days to visit friends... and got back on new years eve for a weekend of partying in Adelaide. It's now Monday night. I am knackered... and skint... and have to go back to work tomorrow. Yawn! O well. Only a couple of weeks til mum and dad arrive.

I took these pictures on the beach today. I was at Glenelg beach, which is where mum and dad are staying when they are in Adelaide. One of the apartment blocks is the one that they will be staying in. As you can see, absolutely no effort was used taking these photos. I barely lifted myself off the beach towel to take them...:)

Ok, Gary.... now your turn to get Skype installed... remember..??!! :)

Here are a couple of shots from our Wellbeing Day at work on Friday (read: day in the park getting pissed). It was fun. We played lots of silly games, had a BBQ and some beers and the sun shone all day. Beats working for a living.

There was a 'guess the baby' competition. I entered the above shot of me on Scarborough beach... and everyone got it so easily... they were all like: "English beach... must be Kelly"... darn it..!

I have at the last minute arranged to go to Sydney this weekend... woop, woop! Just Fri til Sun, but looking forward to it.
