Copycat from Ballarat
Adam's pretty well brought you up to date about what we got up to in Tassie and we had a relaxing few days with lots of home cooked food at Adam's Aunty's. But unfortunately its back to dorms beds and pasta in Melbourne. We spent yesterday in the sun in Federation Square with the cricketers from the Aussie and World XI teams. Most of the huge crowd were British so Sadler was in the minority cherring for the Aussies. So that was definitely the highlight of his day. Today we've been to Ballarat, to the 1870's goldmining village, Sovereign Hill. Sadler went there when he was in primary school so remembers it well. Ballarat, apparently, is most famous for the popular children's expression, 'copycat from Ballarat', which was one of Sadler's favourite childhood sayings! They're an intelligent lot these Aussies!

It wasn't my favourite childhood saying, maybe second favourite after 'You've got two chances, Buckely's and None'.
