@ Bar Beach, Newcastle - 2nd March, 2007 For the lazy, a Middle Australian summary is provided. The Move to Newcastle Susan + Frog's Wedding @ Jarvis Bay, South Coast - 3rd March, 2007 Following a weekend that included some 700km(check this) of travel, around 10 hours in my trusty and efficient VW Golf (known by friends as the Valkyrie, or more jokingly the Tractor), a further six hours with Stu in a hired ute, a wedding (my cousins in Nowra) and a multitude of boxes I arrived in Newcastle.
