Seems I remember how to go out as a single girl. In other words, my phone is full of Instagrammed selfies as I scroll through it this morning. There’s a particularly beaming shot at one point: someone had asked my friend if we went to school together. She’s 12 years younger than me. Oh yeah, I’ll take that thank you very much. Lucky they can’t see me this morning!

I may not have stayed out as late (read: all night!) as I used to, although I still got very little sleep. Will I ever learn to sleep – and sleep in – when Bubba isn’t in the house?

I had a fun night and Sydney, as usual, put on a spectacular fireworks display. It was funny watching with a number of international visitors. They were all if you’ll pardon the pun blown away by the fireworks, yet the Aussies were harsh critics. Personally, I think we’re just so spoilt because we get to watch such amazing displays year after year against the phenomenal backdrop that is our beautiful harbour.

Was there a midnight kiss? A girl never kisses and tells!
