I won't be back at work for the rest of the week (recovering from Dagboys?) but since I am getting broadband tomorrow, I'll be around plenty.
Hey, please say hello to Dags and MrsD from me
Tell them it's now definately Cairns for me.
Thanks.

Sounds like a fantastic job
And yae to dorky students prancing around, I like the frogs with rucksacks hanging around their arses, and the germans with tiny round glasses and weird coloured spiked hair....very bad stereotypes, but when you live in Oxford, you see bloomin' millions of 'em *l*

You actually go somewhere to do it? Impressed....would have thought a dvd and kick up at home would have been enough effort

So where bouts in new england you thinking off and when?
Good luck with boston logon, bunch of arseholes there....i've known people to fly in through montreal and drive into maine, or into NY and drive up because logon is so rude....and also time spent trying to get out of the place, might as well have gone through the other places, about 5 hours drive from other places, so by time get through logon, that 3.5 hr drive would be around 5 hrs...

Too many books, it's all a trick to flock people over here to fleece them out of money while everything shuts down for the season...plus someone has to pay for the over priced petrol before the season ends
