    Sounds like we've got a solid group for this Saturday arvo then @Sydney people. Does anyone want to suggest a specific starting time and meeting place?

    edit: it occurs to me at this point that any suggestions should be PM'd.

    I'm not too fussed. The Rocks has a few nice pubs that do nice pub food, but the place can be a bit of a tourist trap.

    Surry Hills has a whole bunch of pubs and places to get grub, too.

    I don't think blowing $3000 on a TV is really an acceptable way of using the baby bonus.

    So, I just received an email from the pax people, because I had to change the address they were sending the tickets to.

    And it was pretty much a receipt, with all the details of the tickets, and my id stuff, and how much each one cost.

    And it pretty much just came over me that, holy shit, auspax is a thing that is actually happening. And I am going to it. I've got pax tickets, plane tickets, hostel bookings. This is gonna happen and wow.


    I am really looking forward to the coming holidays.

    I thought about you guys yesterday because I shot a short film for 15 hours out in a nearby archipelago and the sun was being very friendly and today I am a bit burnt

  • chrishallett83chrishallett83 Hi! Registered User regular
    Sorry to hear that, Ping. Hopefully you'll find a better job soon mate!

    And Wimble, I awesomed your post for the short filmage, not the sunburnage.
  • WimbleWimble Registered User regular
    It's a very mild burn and it's serving as a constant reminder of the neat-o yesterday so I actually kind of like that it's there

  • Tweaked_Bat_Tweaked_Bat_ Registered User regular
    Ah ok. Yeah uh, Muswellbrook is... not ideal
  • bsjezzbsjezz Registered User regular

    (farms take care of themselves right)

  • Tweaked_Bat_Tweaked_Bat_ Registered User regular
    I would totally move out into the country if I could have a self-caring farm.
  • marty_0001marty_0001 Registered User regular
    I reckon when I retire I will farm trees, I think they're probably pretty easy to look after.

    Note: not a euphemism for growing weed

    Sorry dudes, looks like I'll be coming up on Sunday because of logistical issues :P

    Can really only justify so many arbitrary stays in the hostel

    I managed to get off work this weekend so that I can write about how modern communalism in India is the product of colonialism, and also write about the convention on cluster munitions.

    I am going to go home soon. Then I'll drink.

    I'll probably go in to work one day this weekend. I need to get some shit done and I work best when I'm alone.
  • AJRAJR Registered User regular
    That sucks.

    I mean, I’ll still be getting up early tomorrow. Hit the gym, help promote the next show, and train. But its work I like to do as opposed to stuff I have to do.
  • Blake TBlake T Registered User regular
    What do you do for promotion Aaron?
  • VivixenneVivixenne Not Mad... Just DisappointedRegistered User regular
    don't feel TOO bad for me

    I get paid bank to work on the weekends
  • AJRAJR Registered User regular
    Mainly just hand out flyers and put out posters Blake. Usually just in the suburbs close to the venue.

    What a country!

    Boxing kangaroo stops jogging Australian MP in his tracks
    A startled kangaroo knocked an Australian politician to the ground and clawed his leg after its morning graze on a suburban lawn was interrupted by the jogging lawmaker.

    The eastern grey kangaroo was grazing on the front yard of a house a short distance from Australia's national parliament in Canberra when Greens politician and keen triathlete Shane Rattenbury surprised the munching marsupial.

    In trying to flee, the 1.4 metre (4.5 feet) tall kangaroo clawed the back of Rattenbury's left leg and knocked him to the ground as it hopped away.
