Hmm.... I am quite the simpleton. I use homely for ugly, and homey for....well homey.
 I should have caught the LOTR reference earlier, as I have been accused of being a Hobbit on more than one occasion. |

Me too. I went to the dictionary to show the difference between homely and homey only to find they overlap. Who'da thunk it?

You do realize that the difference between 2:11 and 2:12 can be as small as .01 seconds?

That's a lot of added content for only .01 seconds, love the little island and the description.

Hmmm - We may have to go check that out!
We're going to be in Surfer's Paradise (I kid you not, that's what it's called). We will be staying at our friend's house in Mudgeeraba..... gotta love those Stralyan names. Actually we will probably be hanging out at Bond Uni for the most part - with all the the attractive, wealthy 20 somethings. Just what an out of shape 30 somthing wants to be doing.

The whole of the Goldie is full of 20 somethings with money to burn and nice tanned figures. It's why I usually go north. lol At least the people on the Sunshine coast are older and less beautiful.
