    Just got back a few days ago from your lovely country. It was great although I was only in Perth and areas around there.

    Smeg,

    Keep me posted on your final plans for Houston - I may come down from San Fran if there is a suite at the rockets going.:)

    Also, let me know if you are coming to the Bay Area.

    PM me for contact details.

    My mom is a visiting professor at UWA and I went out to see her over the holidays. She is living near the CBD so spent a fair amount of time in Northbridge also went to Freo, Cottesloe, City Beach and Rockingham. A bit further afield did a three day Margaret River /SW Australia tour and went to Rottnest Island for two days.

    Really enjoyed my time there and the weather was perfect most of the time. It got a little cool down along the Southern Ocean but around Perth it was generally sunny. Not too hot either with it getting to 38 C when I went to Cottesloe.

    The only drawback though was how expensive things were. The mining boom is driving the price up of everything. Even with that I would still pay $11 for a pint of Little Creatures Ale.

    Just keep me in the loop. I'm down for whatever. Well, at least the game, not sure about a suite, but we'll see. :)

    How much would the suite be per person? Obviously it depends on how many people.

    Don't worry about getting here (unless you want to rent a car). I'll get y'all at the airport. It's only 25 minutes from the house.

    What about a gathering at Main Event on Saturday? Lots of kid friendly things to do there, while meeting up with Clutch Fans at the same time.
