Dam Buster of .... well Sydney

Hello everyone,

Yes I know it has been a long time between posts. The life and times of DB have been a little hectic to say the least.

So where am i? Sydney
WTF are you doing there? Workin
Why? Because I was requested by a client to help with a project
How long? until xmas at least

So there you go. Expect a few posts about why this place is different to Melbourne.

First thing - Coffee. In Melbourne you cannot turn around without tripping over a Barrista with a proper coffee. Sydney expect Gloria Jeans instead.. errk. I have found a few decent ones so far.

Second thing - Walking pace. Melbourne will take over as Australia's biggest City soon. Why? because we walk faster than Sydney-siders. Melbournians walk like they are 3 mins late for the 5;15 to Belgrave. Sydney-siders amble taking up the whole path while at it!

more to come...

Re walking, REALLY?! When I was in Melbourne couple years ago, I was constantly complaining about how SLOW you guys are, and how we in Sydney whizz around so much faster!!

Well Bron, maybe it is just the people who are walking where I am?

Power walk challenge??

Have been wondering where you'd disappeared to - come back, all is forgiven!
The poor coffee is your punishment for deserting us *snort*

Thanks Jayne.. yes I have been shipped to Botany Bay. Hopefully will return in 3 months with good behaviour.

Johnny Howard could challenge you to a power walk. He's a Sydneysider. And likes to walk. In his trakky daks.

A sight I am glad we don't have to see again.

Well you'll be happy that your hanging out in the Gay capital of the world. Should suit you just fine.

Gee thanks anon. Sounds like you talk from your own experiences with man love?

Bron said...

Bahahahaha. Those who use gay insults...

Well, we know what they really are, don't we?!
