HAPPY AUSSIE DAY!!!!

hope all is well in freezing cold GB! Brisbane is as humid as they come and is even on the same humidity level as Kuala Lumpur! how about that!!!

As we are only is Brissie for 2 days, I thought i could give you the run down in the capital of Tir-Y-Frenhines or Queensland if you dont speak Welsh you non-bilingual suckers! Brisbane is how shall i say....in Del Boy terms - "Le Nades Le Chen" (translated - The Dogs b******s) What a quality place! At the moment, we are sharing with 2 irish lads and 2 mancs! well I am sooooo sorted here, my surname being MURPHY and I am a lifelong Man United fan! come on the REDS!!! anyhoo thats all the boys want to do is talk football and drink Lager! suits the Koala and Nutkins to the bone!! As it is Australia Day, it does give the nation an excuse to shut down and get tanked up on the old VB and a barbie!!!

The last couple of days have been chilled out to say the least. Yesterday we just chilled and wondered around looking for a HSBC because my bank has decided that my bank card just wont work in Aussie and that I need to phone an International phoneline everytime I want to withdraw money! OOOOOOOOOOOOH someone is going to have a earfull when I get home! As we roomed with an Irish pair it seemed evident that we were going to end up drinking alcohol - Colleen, you would have loved this drinking game as it consisted of drinking white wine. Oh my god, I have never woken up at 11.30 am after a drinking session before and I intend to not do that again. Irish are evil. Apparently I fell out of a top bunk that had a safety cage thing on it...don't ask me how.

Australian National Day - the dangerous duo started our day off with a hungover walk into Brissie CBD followed by a healthy hangover cure meal - Subway!! woop woop. Later that Arvo, Koala and Nutkins got Aussied up by having "POM" written on our faces in gold and green and sporting an Aussie flag. Koala himself, actually sported a Koala on his ear. Come on!! another phonecall to HSBC fraudline, the dangerous duo had some more cash to invest on making the night a messy one. I seriously need to Detox when I get home, Happy Aussie Day to all. will update with pics asap - when comps stop being gay at the hostels XX
