I'd be Jim the Immigration Officer of Sydney

As you come through I check your passport and say...

"No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no"

and every now and then...

"No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no yes"

Pleased to know that we are keeping you entertained.

I actually hold back on some of my stories as I think that people would be sick of reading all my posts.

I remember waiting not so long ago to get here, and how every day seemed like a year, but when you read posts from Baldbutts, Pollyana, Podgy etc, it can really re-charge those batteries.

Hear hear!

I am (as you can tell) new to this malarkey but being (hopefully) Adelaide bound myself always look forward to seeing what PP has to say.

Usually a good mix of entertainment, insight and empathy.

But - I do read all comments (+ and -) and find (almost all) worthwhile reading....

Though I was going manage it on the fags after a day off them yesterday but succumbed today after a really stressful day sortigng out stuff before I go. Family seem to be circling like vultures to get the stuff I'm leaving but disappear into trhe woodwork when I nedd help with stuff (OK a slight exaggeration but it felt like it)

Don't know if i'm going to conquer it before I move out my flat at the end of the week
