The "new" couch

After months of relaxing on a not so comfortable futon ( a metal frame with very flat cushion) we have bought a "new" couch. It may not be the prettiest one (though I do like it) but boy is it comfy. It is long enough for Gavin to stretch out on and the arms are just the right height for a head rest. Best of all it was only $80.

There are not many things I miss from Canada that I can't get here. I don't have crazy urges for Tim Hortons or Beaver Tails. One thing I do miss though is Goldfish Crackers, particularly the Blasted BBQ flavour. They are soooo good. They don't sell Goldfish, let alone BBQ flavour, in Australia. I did however find an adequate substitute in Jumpy's. Tasty kangaroo-shaped crackers.
