I wanna be there
i feel really bad now
its not all great out here y'know
this morning i had to drive my cab all about the coast in that heat!
and watchin all the nutters out walking by the broadwater gets on your tits after a while. even mothers take their babies out for a jog with the buggy, what kind of life is that for a kid?
after being in that cab for hours it statrts to get cold yknow. too much aircon, so i had to get out and have a cool drink while sittin in the sun on the bonnet of the taxi now im too bloody hot!
got back in and had to drive by the beaches a few times more, before pulling over for lunch. best wee bakers in the gold coast too (oh i meant it was shite) got myself a wee pie and a cake, cant find anywhere to park so i had to pull up next to the broadwater you should try having to eat your lunch while loads of half naked ladies jog by. it can put you off your food yknow
trust me you dont want to be here, its PISH!

Really you’re not missing much. It’s going to be another long hot weekend, where we will be either on the beach, in the pool, waterskiing or just hanging out. Then there’s the Easter weekend, that looking sooooo dull at the moment, we are going away with a group of friends, there will be lots of eating and drinking, some friends have a boat so we will be cursing the Mandurah Canals

Its just so dull and boring here

Good God Almighty!!!

I wake up this morning & what do I find?

Our blessed brothers on the far side of the world have set up a thread about what a load of whinging moaners we are! How dare they?

It's about time they got back to concentrating on hoovering their pools, or chilling their suntan lotion or something. And if they've got any spare time, they should be offering us a bit of support & caring guidance as we suffer, frozen & hopeless, in dreary old UK, with nothing to look forward to but yet another storm later on today.

Victor Meldrews indeed - we're not moaners, it's their fault, flaunting their assets in this shameless way..... it's upsetting you know

I would love to have a big house to whinge about, but instead I am dealing with supersmug, self appointed God like status, rude and often arrogant Real Estate Agents.

If and I say 'if' we manage to secure a rental we are going to see on Saturday, I promise to stand in the garden and moan about the sheer size of the size of the bedrooms

That is of course, providing I can crawl far enough up the Estate Agents backside, asked for his autograph and thrown my undies at him in order to get a house.

I hope that's your red undies you'll be throwing...

Good luck with the rental Sam.
