Well, what to say, it's a week since I had the opportunity to write, so a bit of catching up to do. Last Thursday we moved out of Frenchs Forrest, and back to the south of Sydney. We had originally thought that we would move to the city to make it easier for work, but since we haven't been able to find any yet, we thought we may as well be in a groovy and sexy beach type place full of bikini clad young chicks. We decided on Bondi and after a bit of looking around we moved in to a backpackers 2 mins from the beach.

The highlight of the week has been our night out on Saturday. We got ourselves on to 3 guest lists for the night, The Chinese Laundry, a straight club night featuring a set from Lisa Loud, The Shift, a guy club featuring a lot of topless sweaty guys, and the Ark, a mixed club with a good atmosphere and smattering of trannies. We also ended up in another club at some point but I can't remember any of that. We started of at a bit of a party in the city, a lovely house belonging to a friend of Mary's, Roger. After a good nights clubbing till 6.30am we went back to a bit of a party back at Rogers to end the night sitting on the patio with a good smoke. Lovely.

The rest fo the week has been spent looking for work, with little time on the beach because of the weather. It is never cold, but there has been very little beach weather. We did bag Bondi though, Monday night, a couple of laps, in the rain and running through the surf. It sure beats a tread mill.

Anyway, I must sign off now, I am out of time, and still have to upload soam photos.
