Birthdays, Rain, Work and no internet

and that pretty much sums up the week or so...

Tuesday was my first birthday away from home, little different spending it with Lindsay rather than the parents, but spoke with them on the phone for ages. Then Lindsay took me out for breakfast, which was yummy. Then we went to a show called We Will Rock You. Its based on the songs from Queen with a bit f a story thrown in for good measure. It was awesome. And stoked they played our day song. A day song for those that dont know is a song that we listen to every morning when we got on teh bus on Contiki. It is Dont Stop me now. As soon as it started playing at the show i got all excited and nostalgic, for being crammed in a bus with 50 other people!!

Well i have experienced first hand why everyone thinks it rains a lot in England... BECAUSE IT DOES!!!!!!!!!!! the last few days we have had quite a bit of rain... and me yet to invest in an umbrella (doh!!) is has fined up today but the clouds are still a-threatening :)

... and work... yes well who would have thought i'd be itching to get back to work... ok who wouldnt have thought it! but i am, 2 weeks off doing not much, apart from job searching is getting slightly tiresome!!! so if anyone has a cousins, friends, mothers, son looking for anyone who needs work??????

Internet will be hooked up on sunday... all going to plan so then i can be in touch a lot more... these internet cafes are not cheap!

hope you're all well and happy

Man, you got Queen for your Contiki song? I'm jealous. We had some dumb pop-punk Blink-182 wannabe singing "Life's a holiday".

Also, Boots sell those barely-worth-it mini-brollies for about £4 on any high street, so get to it.

Besides, shouldn't it still be summer?

I spent three summers in England and two of them were amazing.

Last year's was a bit of a no-show, but the other two had sunshine for Africa! When I arrived, it was only dark for about five hours each night, and the temperatures were consistently above 20°C each day.

Britain does too have a summer! (And the weather in Sydney has been solidly rubbish most of the time.)
