Today the children and I and @Huxley (aka Mr Man) are heading out the door at an obscene hour (5.30am) as we are catching a plane to Cairns. We will then hop in a car and drive north for an hour or so until we reach our final destination - sunny Port Douglas.

The reason for our sudden departure is a family wedding this Sunday. Little Miss Hoover thinks it's all about her as she is the token flower girl. Whilst Fussy would much prefer to hide under the nearest rock as he is not given to extroversion like his sister and Papa! It will be four fun, filled days and we are all looking forward to being together in the sun, albeit for such a short time.



I look forward to connecting with you all again next week. It's an exciting week for me as next week will mark the first 'guest post' on Gourmet Worrier. First cab on the ranks is none other than the over talented, extremely gifted Madalene from the British Larder.
