My best advice to you is to skip Canberra. I lived there for 5 years and it’s an ok place, but if you’re coming all the way to Australia, there are a million other, nicer places I’d recommend. Weather in the south will be cool, but not cold. Brisbane should still be pretty warm, I’m there right now and it’s about 28C…

I’m Australian, and we do the Times cryptic. Aussies tend to be pretty up-to-date with all things from the motherland, so it’s not really a problem for us. I don’t know of any American ones, sorry! And I’m going to have to take it to the members that we change our name to the Cryps, because that is the greatest idea…

Once you get the hang of them, they’re really fun!

I’m currently obsessed with Nepal. And Iceland. I’ve already been to 40 countries but that’s not even scratched the surface of all the places I want to visit.

Where in Australia are you going? I live in Cairns, but I’m from Melbourne and have been to every state, so I have plenty of advice to share!

I mostly buy expensive, high-end stuff (because I’m an idiot) but I think the Garnier BB cream’s fantastic and I keep going back to it.

I want both of them! The PB&J one is on my shopping list for this week and I only just saw the Peach one on Instagram last night and now I want that too. Because I really need another palette...

Ah, the Tom Ford one was mentioned in that thread as well (possibly by you!) and I’m keen to try that one too.

I’m visiting my mum in the big smoke and we’re going shopping on Tuesday and I plan to buy alllll the make-up. I have a long list and it now includes Santal 33 (thanks, Julianne). As far as current loves go, I know everyone is always looking for the HG liner and I am in love with the Shu Uemura calligraphy liquid…

Hi Emily!!!

I like to have fish and salad. I make a salad with baby spinach, grape tomatoes, beetroot, fennel, orange slices and feta that goes very nicely with a piece of grilled fish.

It was such a fun day! I had two full sites to read so it meant I did nothing else all day, but so worth it.

This is the first social I’ve been able to make in over two months!!! I’m so excited, bring on the make up threads and give me all the news! The reason I’ve been unable to join in lately is that I’ve joined a gang. We meet every Sunday morning for breakfast and we do cryptic crosswords. We are called The Cryptic…

God, and I thought it was dire being a single woman now.

I hear you! Waiting patiently for new Kimmy Schmidt and OITNB.

But I only just started playing golf this week!!! Why am I always late to the party?

This is an April Fools joke, yeah?

Way harsh, Tai!

She’d cut you for saying that!

Celeste Barber does it again!
