Buying a new dress, by accident, on my way home from the Department of Immigration.

Dealing with Immigration in Oz? Only about a BILLION times better than in the UK. No exaggeration, I was in and out in 15 minutes, I only had to fill in a few basic details, and the lady was super nice and helpful.

Shoe Heaven is an entire section devoted to size 11 women's shoes.

Running back through the maze at Ikea to fetch the lovely wooden fruit tray I noticed right at the front...

Getting two phone calls in a row from my SILs (sisters-in-law) to organise a market day. I love having extra family members of the female persuasion!

Mooching around town with the Sydney-based Miss Chetty (or I guess Missus Mountford now that she's married... WHATEVS CHETTY). Popped into Meet Me At Mike's (the analogue version) and ate far too many macaroons... what a lovely way to spend a Saturday.

Op-shopping with my Mum.

The friendliness of Australian shop assistants.

Retail therapy of the rather sensible kind, I think you'll agree:

1x pair of black stretch trousers and 1x black knee-length skirt from Gap
1x pair of dark blue skinny jeans and 2x super-cheap tees from Uniqlo
