A post from Over the Ditch

September 7, 2005 by

Ssshh! *sneaks in, cases the place, drinks the milk straight from the bottle and puts it back in the fridge*
Fi from Kiwifruit here, doing the guestpost bit.
Looks like Deeleea’s still sunning herself on the beaches of Hawaii and sipping exotic drinks with tiny umbrellas and maraschino cherries floating in them.
Lucky, lucky her!
In Big News from Deeleea’s country of birth, it’s the thrice-yearly general elections coming up in one week’s time. It’s the first time I’ve voted since 1993 – not because of apathy, but because I was out of the country each time.
The first time I was living in Manly, Sydney in a cockroach infested apartment with an Aussie truckdriver. It was an eye-opener, living in another country. All those insects! All those loud birds! (crows, cockatoos, rosellas – Australian birds are so noisy!) and all those Aussies with their funny accents!
But the best part about Australia? Charcoal Chicken. There’s one on every main street and boy do they make the best chicken ever.
And the second and third times I was living in London, but that’s another story.
Anyway, I’d better get out of here before I start to waffle on about the good old days.
Have a great day!

    Charcoal chicken? I think I’d have to be brave to try that!
