SYDNEY HERE WE COME 8TH FEBRUARY



Australia here  we come 8th February
We have a busy morning sorting everything out and somehow manage to fit everything into 2 suitcases and 2 rucksacks and head off to the airport.  We have a good flight and as I am watching The girl on the train Jim fills in the arrival forms and asks my opinion as he has ticked we stayed on a farm!!

BORDER CONTROL
I have watched my fair share of border control and am well aware of the form that has to filled in but didn't realise it had a tick box for farms.  I was immediately nervous and said to Jim "we will have to tell them we went on a tramp" and "you will have to tell them you swam in a river" and by the time we landed my heart was pounding how ridiculous we had only stayed at Airbnb on a farm.  So we walk towards the customs area and before we get there a random man standing in the middle of the room says "you ticked you stayed on a farm" is this man psychic can he see the faint trace of mud on my trainers we will never know. I nervously say we stayed at a farm with Airbnb and show him my trainers. He sends us to entrance 8 where there is a sign saying Channel 4 are filming here today please let us know if you don't want to be filmed, does anyone ever say no!! Wouldn't that be an instant full search of your luggage, who knows,  anyway thankfully we were not stopped my heart rate returns to normal and we catch our bus to our hotel.
