Canberra weekend and Josh's visit

Last weekend we made a quick trip to Canberra. After having a nice dinner with Annette's dad Harley and Pam, we stayed at Rydges on Friday night. The next day, we went to Clare (Nettie's school friend) and Vy's wedding celebrations which was great. Katie (far right) had a healthy baby 2 days later!
When we came home on Sunday, we fired up the combustion heater for the first time (It was installed on Friday). You can also see my entertainment centre! The living room is now finished (just the curtains to hang up).

And on Tuesday, my mate Josh (ex-flat mate from St George) came to stay. He's on a holiday for a few more days and is going back to Florida where he is doing a PhD.
Nettie made a very nice lamb shank pasta dish. The lamb was slow cooked on top of the heater and it was quite yummy!
Meanwhile, the rain refuses to go!! We've had 140mm in 3 days and its still going! So the concrete hasn't been poured yet and the shed construction is going to be hold for a while which is very very frustrating.
cya!
