Drummoyne Serviced Apartments

... didn’t help that she chose to completely ignore us until we landed on the tarmac at Heathrow 12 hours later, and all of a sudden it was like we were best friends for the 40 minutes we were stuck out from the terminal.

There was no entertainment on this flight and the food was shocking (cooked within an inch of its death, then resurrected, and cooked to death again – was the way it was described by Si) and you ...

... a hangover. We arrived late afternoon, crossing the Harbour Bridge over into the city, this was something that we had both been looking forward to. Our hostel for the next few days was decent enough, another 10 bed dorm but we're used to that by now. After dumping the bags we were out exploring the city, Darling Harbour was only a short walk away so we walked around and ended up back at the pub next to our hostel. It turned out to be a good night, Robbie won 2 pitchers of ...

... guys on the trip as it was his birthday the day before. Another Oz Experience bus arrived so there was quite a crowd of us which was good fun. On Thursday we stopped off at Canberra which we all thought was quite a strange little place! Everything is man-made so is in perfectly straight lines and all of it is just spotless... Stinger described it as Truman Town (after the film The Truman Show) and that's exactly what ...

... her way up, who wanted to find out what the view was like. well, at first, i thought she was absolutely mad to stop us that far up from the ground, but, after a minute or so, i forgot about the height and we had a rather pleasant conversation about the view, how amazing it was that we were that far up, and how weird it was that mostly girls were attempting the climb while their boyfriends or husbands all seemed to be electing for feet firmly on the ground?! anyway, upon my ...

Well we decided to move and get a place togther. Looking on the first weekend back from the trip we popped into a couple of places and got lucky with this one. The owners and we clicked, the agreement was set so we started giving notice. How could we not like the place with off street parking (nothing special but easier then existing), two ...

... pretty exciting çause things were so similar. You may ask how this is exciting, but the whole thing really helped me out in the sense that it was always be there. For instance, Airlie Beach was just the same as it was last year, and if I'm so upset about leaving Australia , I can always come back and it'll still be here. We spent two days in Brisbane as well, but didn't do much other than make our very own ...

Well I am now in Adelaide, but thought I would just add a quick final entry to my travelogue, for Drummoyne - home for the last six months. First of all - I must say that the time here has gone quite quickly really and it does not seem long ago since James and Kelly were both busting moves in the living room, taking advantage of the newly polished floor on the day we moved in. However, what have I done over the last month I hear you ask.... Well here is some of the more interesting ...

Well I haven't written anything in a while, so I thought that it was about time that I added an entry. Especially as it does not appear that I will be doing any work this week. Unfortunately both of the jobs that I have previously mentioned, have come to a conclusion. The roadside assistance job ending because they did not deem the call volume to require two people. I could tell you which UK insurance companies not to take out roadside assistance with and expect a fast ...

Well it has been a long time since my last entry and this one is completely unplanned. Due to my recent working efforts, I have not actually achieved much apart from finally earning a bit of money (not that much - it is still going fairly quickly...) Since the 20th March, I have had just four days not working. "So what else has happened in the last month or so?" - I hear you ask. Well, James has left the house and is now somewhere in the middle of Australia ...

Well, well... It has taken over two months for me to find work and then I get two jobs in two days! The first is a temporary (4 week) IT support job that will see me working for the Snowy Mountain Engineering Corporation, starting this week. See www.smec.com.au They are consultancy company, working in various fields including consulting services in physical infrastructure (water, transport, energy), urban planning, social infrastructure (education, health, public ...
