I've been spending time with some of the UK candidates since we got in touch on Sunday. It's been absolutely brilliant, especially to speak with people who have been experiencing similar emotions and the frustrations that we've been presented with.

Yesterday, we journeyed to Westminster to create a little patch of Australiana (deck chairs, beach towels, tim tams, vegemite), approaching anyone who dared enter our 5 meter perimeter. The reception from the public was fantastic, only too happy to accept our free Tim Tams (which everyone just said were penguins) and lapel Koala toys. Hopefully working together might get more press for Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef and even possibly ourselves.
