Jonahs Mummy is pole dancing using Jim as the pole, gyrating around a smiling Jim.
The agents are even letting their hair down and are limbo dancing under a broomstick with Wombat and Pommi league.
Rooskie has started a Miss Wet T shirt and is trying to round up the girls.
Even the TRA men are enjoying themselves and are dancing - it may be on their own, but they are dancing.
All is well in the world of Aussie Expats.
For now....
'It will all kick off soon, you will see' Manc said to JAJ knowingly
'Not on my patch' JAJ replied.
Bob had disappeared and was found down a busty beauty's top, enveloped in her cleavage.
So far so good......

It will be a proper one, everyone will get a mention.
They will all be wearing Jim tour jackets and earings.
Even 'The Agents' and the TRA men will be in it, as will John Howard.
Oh God, now i have the idea in my head, Im tempted to start it now. Thats the trouble, get an idea and need to write it down.
Jim, you are going to regret the day you started this thread because you have an official part in all my stories.

As I say I don't know what I did wrong, but something for sure.
I only ever wanted to be part of the community, but I obv don't fit for some reason.
I've had a few longish threads of recent and apart from the moderator Jeremy, there's been 4 or 5 pages with no other comments other than from 4 or 5 members 1,500 viewings tho! I appreciate they was Student Visa related, and not everyone has a lot to say about that if they are going with PR in hand, but even a word of support would've been nice. Instead of each time my partner asked "well, what are the other people saying?", I'd say "no one has replied but JAJ again", I'd love to have told her "oh 'so and so' has posted saying blah blah blah, but alas!
I don't want knock Jeremy as he's helped us the most on here, but he can be a bit negative towards ppl who want to study to get PR. He's perfectly entitled to his opinion, but maybe a few opinions from others might have made the whole 'bashing feeling' we seem to have felt over the last few days not so bad.
For me and my partner the last 2 years has been terrible as far as the Immigration (if it ever happens) has been. We've been on the roller coaster of emotions with the 'yes it's on' and the 'oh sh*t, we can't do it now'. We've been thru the TRA who took 7 months (with priority) to tell us no good! Reasons they gave were there under their eyes, its not like they had to do any checking to come to their conclusion, and maybe I am too paranoid, but I think they just wanted to mess us about, it doesn't take 7 months to tell me I have no qualifications when page 1 of my portfolio stated that!
Anyway, we was told about study to PR, and that's been just as bad as which ever way I look, there is problems or high risks. The last week or so I have probably been spending up to 10 hours a day on the PC. Either on Expat, DIMIA, or whatever, but all Australia related.
My partner suffers with depression anyway, and being a SADS sufferer has not been taking the Winter too good, but with all the stress of the last few days has had a break down, had to go to the Doctor, and is now on medication to get her thru this period. With hindsight maybe I have been too obsessed with this Australia thing that I have neglected her Either way the best thing I can do now is leave Expat and everything else, and put my time and effort where it is more needed for now. We'll be back on track with getting to Australia as soon as we are over this period.
I thought about just disappearing and pop back with a new username then, but that's not fair to the few ppl that have helped me, and have pm'd me to wish me luck and keep them informed, so here's my last post I think, at least I have explained my reasons.
I just want to thank everyone who DID help me with advice and support since I joined, especially JAJ even tho what I just said about the guy.
I'll definitely need to post on here again in the future, but I think I'll get more responses as someone else which is a shame, we all need answers!
THE END
RIP Jim2004 (Paul)

In a puff of smoke, he was gone to the chilly parts of Watford - thats where famous people live, and people that like the shopping centre there.
'Who shall we worship till tomorrow?' Hevs asks, a little worried.
'bollox' replied Wombat and cracked open a beer.
'Yes, but whos bollox?' Hevs asked
'Jeremys' Wombat grinned and swigged the beer.
Jeremy nervously backed out of the room, he valued his crown jewels and was more than afraid.
The Agents and TRA men crossed their legs all at the same time.
Oh dear, Jim please come back.

They had not all gone back to their own beds though. Oh no, dont think those TRA men were innocent.
Back in their flasher macs and glasses, they had gone back to 'The Pink Panty Parlour' for a glass of brandy with Princess, Scissors and Jonahs Mummy.
John Howard was there and for a bet, was wearing womens underwear. The Agents were absolutely pissing themselves laughing too, they could never apply to the TRA again with a straight face.
But apart from that, the stadium was being cleaned for the next big event where Jim was making yet another appearance, supported by Wombat and Worzel.
There would also be some mud wrestling too.
But not tonight. The cleaners want to lock the place up and are tapping their heels impatiently on the floor.
Until tomorrow.
