Our friend Alex (see the many posts here and her actual blog) has finally got around to writing a few posts on her new exciting life in Australia. She has moved over there to be with Mat, and it looks as though they will now not be sharing a flat with two other blokes, as the couple’s employers have rented them a vehicle, so they can commute instead of moving. Given the amount of time the two spent apart prior to their joyful reunion, this is probably for the best đ
Anyway, if you have not done so yet, visit her blog, consider subscribing to her RSS feed, or at least give the site a quick Ctrl+D đ
Oh, and I can’t remember if I mentioned it already, but congrats to Alex on achieving a Google Page Rank of 2!

Has Google’s Page Rank Update Occurred?
Many website owners are currently checking their statistics, as rumours are rife that Google will be updating their Page Rank statistics any day now.
