Been a while ey!

Bonjour darlings, I know its been about a month since I last posted, and I still haven't really done much of any interest to be honest, but I've been having fun even though I'm just working in a bar still...

At the weekend it was tremendously busy at work, and on both Friday and Saturday nights we had a huge bar dance which was really cool, the DJ put on a good tune and it got cranked up and most of the staff just clambered onto the bar and started dancing throughout the whole song. Some of the customers loved it and it gave most of us a bit of a buzz and it made work a lot more enjoyable! But by the end of the night we'd had enough, so me and the two others that were left to close the bar just kept tipping glasses of cold water over each other, we were all soaking wet by midnight but it was fun! I technically have to leave the bar where I work on the 21st of Feb, as you can only work for the same employer for 3 months under the Visa working conditions, but I've been told I can stay on, get paid cash in hand so thus not get taxed (travellers get taxed 29%!!!) so I might do that for a few weeks, as I have a few places left in Sydney I still need to visit such as the Blue Mountains and the Royal Botanical Gardens.

Sydney Opera House, as if you needed telling...

Me and Amy went for a walk over the Harbour Bridge the other day which was fairly cool, the view of the Opera House and the city skyling was spectacular. It didn't take long to walk across and we found ourselves in North Sydney, which is a kind of mini CBD (Central Business District), but we still caught a train back to central Sydney! Earlier on that day though, I bought a Mc Bacon Double burger thing and as soon as I unwrapped and had taken my first bite, a seagull flew into my hand and stole the bacon and two burgers out of my sandwich! The meat was lost in a swarm of seagulls and I was left with an empty cheese cob! Now if I see a seagull I try to kick it into the sidelines like its an american football.... Evil vermin!

Sydney CBD

I went out each night last week, (so much for staying in and saving cash?!) met a pair of crazy Scouse girls Cath & Mandy (in where else but the Side Bar!) but they buggered off up to Surfer's Paradise later on that week. Me and a couple of peeps from work went out on Saturday night in Kings Cross (the dirtiest but most fun place to go out in Sydney) and got in at about 6am, all of us had work at around midday the following day. Work hasn't dragged so long for a yonks, as we were all totally wrecked!

If anyone has Superstylin' by Groove Armada they can send to my e-mail, please do! I miss this song so much and need it on my iPod!

Sorry to Becky for missing your birthday, hello Suzi I hope you do make me a nice t-shirt, Ben I hope you are looking after Suzi! And Ed I hope you are looking after Ben! To everyone else, I love you all lots and miss you all too.

I won't leave it so long next time, I will try to do something interesting soon to write about, I promise! Oh, I did go to a beach that I'd not been to before, me and Louise from work hit Coogee beach and tis lovely I tell thee! Was rather strange though, Louise saw a guy that she last saw in the hostel she stayed in a while ago, I saw a guy I met ages ago in Fiji, and I also saw a girl called Natalie that I met in the Wake Up! hostel. Crazy.

Oh, and Happy Chinese New Year!
