Justine here.... We picked up our new car today! Very happy with it. Only 1 year old, mint condition. Manual 1.6litre turbo diesel and obviously bright red to make it go even faster!

Alex and I have achieved a great deal in our first week.... mobile, internet, and now a car. Just got to get a more permanent roof over our heads and then can relax a bit. We are staying in Toorak which is probably the most expensive suburb in Melbourne - the houses, or should I say mansions, around us are huge and remind me of Double Bay in Sydney - very grand with gated access. It's a great area but too expensive for long term so we're on lookout for something a little further east but still in good residential area. So.... on to house hunting now!

  2. "Missing a little poke"....? Well, I'm too much of a gentleman to even touch that one!

    Car looks nice, so good luck with the house-hunting you two.

    What do people think when Alex whips out his camera to capture the moment? Are there raised eyebrows, or do they think Jus is a minor celebrity who's bypassed their radar?

    Note to Alex: avoid the obvious, dear boy - no photo of house keys being dropped by beaming salesman into Justine's hand!

    Keep up the good work A&J!
