You're right of-course. I have been thinking this and many other ideas about Australians and English in general lately. Only natural considering I am the prior living with the latter, and also because you start to view people, situations etc differently when you are removed from them, as you well know being a traveler yourself. I extrapolate because it allows me to define in my head..I believe we all are guilty of this in one way or another. ...Still, you have a point. Don't know if it changes my opinions however..:-) And you'll recall I've had some rather extensive experience with some of those English living in Australia so my viewpoint is not completely biased.

happy bday lauren
looks fun. the cafe and ice skating. re aust in england - you must remember that australians choosing to live OS will generally be more motivated/adventurous than the standard model at home so you can't fairly compare their attitude with the average stay in england pom. same here - there arent many 'average' poms but there are certainly at lot af average australians.

clever girl
I wish you were here to help me send a musical birthday card to L auren for next Friday. My lap top is waiting for you to operate. Dad says we may have visited the castle on our bus trip. It certainly looks spooky. Looking forward to your next trip.

No, don't worry, I'll warn her against doing anything as silly. :-) BTW I don't show it in the photo but I was severely in pain from touching those chestnut outer spikey things to get the chestnuts out. (until I figured out a special foot removal technique) We cooked the chestnuts that night and they were delicious however so all pain forgotten.

Trivia
Umm... Kangabeavers. :) And I did *not* know everything! Herve knew Paraguay when I was thinking Uruguay... 0 C here last night. +7 would be nice! (Sunny and 13 today though.) Hard to believe it was 35 degrees the day before we left for London (at the end of August).

A little too early to make changes yet. I have heard the school does this at the beginning to get the students 'in line'. Apparently then they loosen up. (It's meant to shake off the ones of "low character" .. a mother actually said this to me). I know Christine doesn't enjoy the strictness but she is actually enjoying the excitement and challenge of the actual subjects. A hard call, but I am loathe to say, 'OK, forget it, don't go anymore' as that's a pretty bad precedent to set. Ie giving up in the first few weeks. No, no chance of changing schools now. It is a buearocratic nightmare to get in to any, changing is like climbing Everest. We've already decided to finish early however. See you third week of January.

Christmas and school
No, I haven't seen any Christmas decorations in the shops, yet. Christine's school sounds a bit horrible to me. Wonder if the other high schools are the same?
