Move along...

Nothing much to see here. This will be the last update from Perth - we're off to Melbourne tomorrow morning.

Relaxing afternoon letting other people take the strain whilst we sat and drank wine and ate food on a Swan River lunch cruise. Very civilised.

Not content with winning the test series yesterday, Western Australia has also hijacked the real Ashes urn, so we went along to the museum this morning to make sure the cheating bastards were looking after it properly. It seems fine and as I'm fond of telling the Australians we meet, even though they may have "won" it, it'll be on its way back to Lord's soon enough. It's always kept in England, you know.

We experienced the excellent public transport again yesterday morning as we made our way via taxi, train and bus over to AQWA - the West Australian aquarium over at Sorrento. Very good it was too - though I wasn't too keen on the sausages in the cafe :-(

Finally, you'll all be delighted to hear that I've stormed into a massive 2 rack lead in our pool tournament. We've played 68 games in total now and the score's sitting at 35-33. Doubtless Hoopy will sort that later.

Farewell, Perth.
