There was a time when I would have agreed with much of what you have to say about Australia... but I moved on, I got over the issues and learned to embrace what was on offer. You, on the hand, have firmly planted your head ever further up your backside with each passing year.

You're a parody of the forever whinging Pom.. nothings ever good enough for you and everything was better 'back home'. Not only is it laughable its a bit sad as well.

Lets just say until my job changes, I cant go on meetings really.


Hopefully will be able to follow through with my football invites now we have some home games at Richmond.

So probably seems guilty as charged, re the friendly, but not wanting to be friends tag, It really is my night shift job though....
You've met 'Margaret' is that right? She told me you were cracking. (she also told me there were a few others she met who she thought were going to be a hoot (from here) that ended up being eejits.

You never can tell.

I was beginning to think that you're option three was "laugh at my own jokes" with the on the end of each post.

Oh well, you'll probably still be here in another 10 years, still telling people how crap you think Australia is. I guess some people just can't move on.

Yehp, I just feel really bad that I can't spend more time socialising. My work even meant I've left behind plenty of friends from pre night shift days.

She's cracking too... I love genuine people.
