So nice to hear from you.
How are things going with you and Bill?
Went to see the movie Australia last week even though it got a bad write-up here in the states. I guess I just missed your land of OZ, despite the reviews and I really enjoyed the movie.
Happy New Year to you guys.

I saw the film and really enjoyed it (didn't think I would as it's long and not quite my style of movie!). It was great to have lots of Aboriginal elements and issues, as they were treated so badly for a long time. And Baz Luhrmann is such a kitchy type of director :-)!
Happy New Year!
Cheers!
Tizz and Bill
