On the road again

I have been working and living in Melbourne for the past 7 months and the time has now come to start heading home. Me and Mail have planned 3 weeks traveling up eastern Australia and then 2 weeks in New Zealand. After that, its a leisurely 27 hr plane flight back to London then Glasgow. I will be in London on the 27th of May and Glasgow on the 30th.

The last few months have mostly been spent working with the occasional jaunt to public house. I went to see an AFL game. Who would have thought a game so brutal could turn out to be so boring? Fans of opposing teams were sitting together, whole families were there enjoying themselves, people were drinking responsibly, no one was swearing. This is not how competitive sport is meant to be!

Its the Melbourne comedy festival at the moment which attracts comedians who cant get a gig in their own countries. This afforded the opportunity to go an see Pauly Shore, America's 'most annoying' actor. We went to see him at a really small venue and he was surprisingly funny. He was around after to talk to people and try to flog his t-shirts. We got a photo and Mail managed to get a free t-shirt as the largest size they had was a woman's medium.

Anyway, i will be home soon and look forward to showing off my tan and telling my stories. See you in a few weeks!
