We went out to dinner

We went out to dinner tonight. Where did we go?

The Casino! Star City casino in Sydney to be precise :)
Now we don't usually spend an awful lot of time at the casino, in fact this was only the second visit for Em and I, and the first for DH. Em and I saw a show there around 2 years ago.
My sister-in-law is visiting from Queensland for 3 days, staying in the city, so we went in and met her and took her to dinner. Fun was had by all, and much time was spent admiring Sydney's harbour by night.

A fun mail day today :)
I got another cute tape measure from eBay.

I could collect these forever!
And I got the confetti sock yarn I won from Brenda.

Thankyou again, Brenda! This is the first RAOK I have recieved by snail mail, and I love it!
I also got a cute kit in the mail that I ordered for Emily, that makes a little person. You knit it up (a more-or-less simple rectangle), sew it up, add arms and legs made on a French knitter, and felt it before you stuff it. I have promised her that I will blog it for you all when she starts it.
Between all that stuff, and the little bit of sewing and housework I managed today, not a stitch has been knit today :(
Better time management tomorrow!

i love the tape measures you've bought!

i tried searching on ebay for something similar and all i found were industrial construction worker types of measures.

you obviously had better luck!
