Hey guys, Just putting up some pics of Cambridge. Not a lot is happening here at the moment, but I've got three days off which is very nice. What is not so very nice is the fact that I have to work lots this weekend - we have live music on Fri, St Pats Day on Sat and Mothers Day on Sun. Its gonna hurt quite a lot. It is also not nice that I have an ear infection and am so exhausted from the weekend just past that I am pretty much going to sleep for all my days off. The original plan was to go to London, but sore ears make me sleepy. The weather here is lovely. Well it was absolutely freezing at midnight last night when I was walking home, but I ... read more
My plans to marry a rich scholar

Hi kids, Am settled down and working hard here in Cambridge. I'm living in a nice little old pub. I've got the river on one side of me and the common on the other. Its very pleasant. Except for the stupid rowers on the river. They spend the mornings shouting and rowing and shouting some more. I'm considering purchasing a megaphone to yell back at them out the window. Then they come in to the pub and expect me to serve them. What cheek! Nah, they are okay. Think I've got the hang of bar work pretty much. I also have a new life goal - to be able to pour perfect Staropramen pints every single time. As much as I hate and mock Fosters beer, atleast it is easy to pour! I'm still struggling to ... read more
News from the other side of the world

Hey Guys, Not a lot going on over here, but I had some internet time to waste, so I thought I may as well do a blog. Got myself a job at a pub in Cambridge, I'm moving up there tomorrow. Hoping I will find a rich scholar to marry me. Its only a short term job, so after 2 months or so I'll probably have to find something else. But its okay, pub experience will look lovely on my resume. Went to Oceana on the weekend... saw the 'famous' lit up dance floor. Then I preceeded to sleep for most of Saturday and Sunday. Damn jet lag. Its fairly cold over here. Tried to go for a run yesterday but it was too cold. Thought I might catch hypothermia, so had to go home. The ... read more

Hey guys, Quick one from me. I've arrived safe and sound in London, and I refuse to fly again for a while. There was nothing wrong with the trip... it was just so long. 8 hours to Hong Kong, a 3 hour stop over, then 14 hours to London. Plus having to wait on the plane for about 45 mins before the airport decided to get us buses to taxi us to the terminal. Damn Heathrow. Never again. Thought I was gonna die after the 8 hour flight... serves me right for going to trivia the night before. Hope everyone else pulled up better than I did on Wed. Still no plans as of yet. Except to spend quality time in Sutton, my favourite place in England. Grim, when you come back in June can we ... read more

Hey Kids, New year, new website. Thought I should finally break it off with Kimbo. The relationship just wasn't working, we decided to go our separate ways. Hahaha. Love ya Bo. But after an awesome summer and an awesome tan, I'm heading back to the UK. As much as I love it here in the northern suburbs of Melbourne, I feel its time to move on. I am going to miss the endless rows of bridal shops, the men oogling me from their plastic chairs outside the cafes and unreliability of the number 1 tram, not to mention its drivers who refuse to go over 20 km/hr. Actually, I don't think I'll miss any of those things and next time I come back to Melb I refuse to live so far out from the city. I ... read more
