The Australian Embassy

You can live in hope DA6..

 

Yes I could Az

YES I COULD or BETTER STILL............................

 

Yeah, I kept the SMS messages. Mainly because I need the number to call in a few days to find out who it is.

I had to work today, which was cool. Up, dressed, showered and at work in 30 mins!

Blimey, that is fast - what's your secret?

 

Re: rugby

Its all gone quiet... all gone quiet
Its all gone quiet over there, over there...

 

So am I British or Australian?

I was born in Bath but have lived in Sydney Australia since my first birthday.

So what does that make me?

 

British with the misfortune of an Australian upbringing

 

Technically a Pom, but lucky enough to escape the worst of it.

 

What does your passport say, m-m?

Hey all, back after a lengthy absence as I had to work heaps last week. Yay music retail! Yay Christmas!

BTW, temp's hitting the late 30's every day. It's perfect beach weather. How's the UK?

I'm in the same boat as Mauls-Menace. I was born in West Bromwich (where I live now), but I was raised in Hobart.

My mother is also English, but my father is Australian by birth.

What does that make me?

 

I think it makes you both DUEL nationality... I have a friend who was born in the UK and was raised in Canada and he's duel nationality

 

But it's by choice you don't have to be duel nationality

 

I'm only single nationality!

Just been watching the extended LOTR - again - and I'm amazed at how much better this film is! Two Towers will rock! Yay Faramir!

awww @ Ender

I know what you mean I cant wait mind you I have tests to get through first

 

Good luck with those tests. You know how hard my week has been and will be? Working Thursday night and Saturday, otherwise sitting on my behind and watching T.V. I've earned it!

How's Die Another Day, if anyone's seen it? We have to wait till Dec. 12!

E_S

 

Its abysmal.

 

Nooooo!

Hey, here's a whacky website: MGS Codename.

I am Humongous Chimera!

Thanks

We're seeing it this weekend Ender

Hey you still want a pressie from the exhibition?

 

oooooh! Yes please!

But, what was your Metal Gear Solid codename LV?

E_S

 

lol

Ok We'll get you a pressie but I'll need somewhere to post it to

 

I'm British born and raised (till age 11 ) and have lived in OZ since then, could explain my insanity

Ohhh, actually I want to come and see the UK again soon ...'tis best around Christmas . Maybe I could pretend to be a UK cricketer, bah I'm sure that I could get more runs than those cricketers

 

Sorry all, I've been working heaps and too buggered to hop online. You gotta love Christmas - gaudy decorations, crowds, sales, and in my case, every cretinous oaf of a customer. They seem to flock to my till like moths to a light.

Anyways, I saw Die Another Day. It was OK. I liked it, but the first 20 minutes, up to Cuba, were fantastic. I kinda hoped he'd kick the snot out of the traitor and Zao, and the movie would end. It started like that...but no, we get a plot about some twit of a supervillain with a naff plot to reunify Korea by shining a light at it. OOOOO-kay. Is it me, or did it feel like that plot was, uh, thrown in because the original plot wasn't "fantasic" enough? Eh, never mind... I did like seeing all the little references to past films - Bond eating grapes in a hosptial room (as he did at Shrublands in Thunderball, and all the gadgets in Q's office), as well as the torture scene and opening credits. Bloody awful song though.

Anyways, how are we all?
