Small world....

What a great day.

Woke up very hungover (don't ask.. just don't ask..) and went for a trip to
Manly Beach. Much nicer than Bondi Beach a mon avi, and fantastic
weather. Meant to be 28'c today, and 38'c tomorrow.. so I chose today to
top up/being my tan.

Anyway, whilst doing the coast walk thing, I bumped into a couple of
English guys, one of whom left England in March to come and live in Sydney.
And where did he live in England ? At number 27 of my street, Melbourne Road,
back in Bristol.

I mean... come on... what are the odds....?

I have to fly to the other side of the planet to meet my neighbours.

Anyway, I've bunged a load more photos on my photo site, click on the
"Photos" link to view them, if you can be arsed.

I wouldn't, if I were you. They're only gonna annoy you. I tell ya,
two weeks before xmas, and I'm lying on the most beautiful beach,
with all the locals, nothing's crowded, nothing's rushed, the sun is
shining, and we're just a 15 minute ferry from the centre of Sydney.

This is the life.

Nice pics, looks like Mike with a tan, do I see, or have you been sprayed? Cold wet & windy here in the uk at the moment. This time last year we to were in the sunshine in florida, its nice to think of everyone at home freezing thier bits off.
 
Well, you did go during their summer. Good choice!

Is it giving you an itch to move there?
 
Actually, while you are in the land of Oz, see if you can pick up one of these:

I'd heard that the bloke who lived in your street but moved to Australia did so because you moved in up the road. Any truth to that rumour ?

Oh yeah, if you manage to get your arse back to England by 26th January, there's an ELO tribute playing at the Wharf !! Go on, you know you want to !

Ollie.
