So this is now my 4th week working at the cafe and it is killing me. I have decent hours and seem to have regular 8am - 2.30pm shifts Monday to Friday. I am permanently stuck on the front desk dealing with all the orders and the takeaway counter but I am so sick of the bloody Aussies looking at me like I am Chinese and as if they don't understand me and I am talking a foreign language cos I have...

The fun you can have with a ear plug!
Hi Jane, You must of just wrote this blog as i was emailing with regards the phone cost - cause it wasn't on when i emailed on monday! So only just read today - Wednesday!!! The photos are really, really good - i am very impressed! In my specialist Tom Cruise opinion though i do believe the chinese girl to be so wrong - the man claimed looks nothing like my man tom cruise. Please make all aware!!! With regards the phone cost. Good news - no need to kill myself. It cost just £2.86 for i think it was 56 minutes! So very cheap - i'll pass it on to Lou ball and see if she wants to try it. I've also left a message with your dad on his phone (house phone) saying that it did only cost 5p a minute - so he may give you a bell this week! I can call on a weekly basis now. I'm not hard up for £2 and it saves me trying to think of everything to type - so i'll call you Monday after i've been to the Doctors, about the skin problem i was telling you about!!!!! With regards you. I think moving on is best - especially as there dosn't seem much going on other than work! You'll end up getting fed up if it's getting up your nose now. So keep me updated on how Darwin is before you zip off to Asia - P.S please be careful in asia i don't want some forign man buying you for £3 or something - you know what they are like in these forign countries they buy and sell in camels and you can't understand a word of what they are saying - so remember never nod your head to anything!!!!!! Back home, nothing exciting has happened since Monday. Linda rang last night - shes having a ding dong with the neighbours. They have apparently rang brian saying she was making loads of noise over the weekend. But i don't think it was her! I think it was next door - Enid was having a rave party!!! Only joking, other next door!! Louise has just been working. I've not spoken to Emma for weeks? Not sure were she has disappeared to???? And me - working as usual!!!! So nothing to report!!!! You take care. If having a lager - have one for me!!!! Speak to you next week. Deb xxxxxxxxx

You are the greatest!
Well i have just managed to pick myself up off the floor after laughing so hard at your ear plug story - we can always rely on you Jane! at least you're having fun! I know what you mean about Team Asians in the kitchen aswell - although you will be glad to know there seemed to be less on the east coast so you can prepare your food better. And your off to Asia!!!!! I wanted to go to Cambodia and Laos, sounds fun and like you said not fully been hit by the commercial trains yet so still cheap - am sooo jealous (yet again). Life here is just revolving around the house, but as you said will be worth it (it better had be!). Keep up the good work and keep writing these blogs - I love em and they are one of the rare things that get me smiling at the mo! Love ya babes x x x x x
