A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my big SISTER! (who is littler than me)
Happy Birthday Heh!
Yeah I know I'm a day late but.. the... um.. internet.. wasn't.. working.
And the postmen were walking up and down the street saying they were on strike....
:P
And all telephone services had been cut off... forever..
..and my phones been playing up. (that last one is true)
So if anyone sees my sister in the street they have to run up to her and give her a big hug for me.
And if you don't know what my sister looks like, well, just run up to anyone and hug them..
But don't blame me if you get in trouble.
xoxo
Yes im helping to build a wall...
..In case anyone was wondering.
But the weather here has been pretty bad lately. Rain, rain, and some more rain. Sometimes there is some hail, but even that is boring as it is pathetic tiny hail about 5mm big, not like in sydney where you'd get massive golf ball hail doing damage.
And the cricket? well being in wales they don't really go on and on about it like when I was down in London, but it looks like its gonna be a walkover.
I got a bit homesick the other day cause they keep on showing Aussie on TV. Either live crossovers to the ashes, where its sunny, and hot, or this other program called "Im a celebrity, get me out of here!" -A survivor type show where they put some "celebrities" in a rainforest in Queensland.
Oh well I'll be at the snow soon. No time to worry about the sun and sea.
Can't think of anything more to write.
Sunny England?
Dave, Chris and Andreas place in East London.. (represent!)
..compared to my uncles place in Wales.
The Bill !!
Well yesterday we nearly had a robbery, that is to say we DID have a break and enter, but Andrea and Dave were home to foil the would-be-bandits.
I left the house in the morning at around 11am, and then about half an hour after that, Andrea said she heard the door opening and closing.
She came downstairs to see a guy coming through the front door and he said "Oh Sh*t!!" before running out the door, jumping in a car and driving off.
Well Andrea was smart and got the cars number plates, and then rang the police.
Next up, (the best part) we get a visit from THE BILL!
*cue bill theme music*
"da-dah, da-dah, dahh!!"
It was just like being on a real episode, except we saw no chase scenes or people getting arrested. :(
And they came round this morning to fingerprint the door!! But they found nothing.
(I knew or door wouldn't have any fingerprints, as it has no fingers, but they fingerprinted the door anyway.)
Thats all the excitment for now..
What? a TV?
Well over the weekend saw the arrival of Dave and Meels (or Meals or however im gonna spell it), and also Tegan and her friend Julia.
So there was a grand total of 8 people staying in the tiny abode.
So then Friday night came and arrived and we all went to Fabric (a club) for the big 21st celebration!!!
But for some reason, the club was crap. None of us seemed to be having a good time. (was it something in the food??) Anyways, I think we had enough of super loud mid-range noise and stupid MC's yelling stuff into a microphone, and a DJ who would rewind every second track and double drop wobble tunes on each other.
Are we getting to old for this music scene do you ask? Or is it just me?
Hmm...
Nah, I think its just these really big clubs that dont seem to live up to expectation. They cost too much to get in, and then drinks are too expensive, and together with the overcrowding it just doesnt make it fun anymore.
In other news,
Dave (dirty dave, ie. david graham, chris's mate) and Meels went and bought a TV Yesterday!!
WOOO!! - theres now no reason to leave the house! Neighbours! Home and Away! Yay!
And quite possibly the greatest ever British show...
"Cash in the attic"
-daytime television at its best people.
Some people come round to your house and go through all your old stuff, then, they take what they reckon they can sell to an auction house and sell it!! Gripping on-the-edge-of-your-seat Drama!!
no not really.
Oh, and i finally got my contract from the employer.
And I dont start work till 9th December.
Yeah i know, i thought that ill be starting in novemeber but they've obviously been playing with me. So, its a matter of waiting untill december. Grrr.
Now, you have to help me decide what to do next..
Accomodation is provided with the job, but, they also offer you a packet of EXTRAS.
For 110 pound a week, (yes 110 pound is about 260 aussie dollars), they will provide me with:
-Food whilst im not working (im guessing i get fed on the job)
-Ski lift pass
-Snowboard/ski hire
-medical insurance
-laundry facilities
Now, 110 pound seems a bit steep to me. and over 18 weeks that makes 1980 pounds!!
instead im thinking of buying a season lift pass (468 pounds), and possibly buying a snowboard over there...
what does everyone think?
