Rockin' All Over The World
...not really, I just wanted a bit of suspense. Alice Springs was another shithole in the middle of nowhere. It was here that Tom offered me a peanut butter sandwich and I told him to stick it where the sun doesn't shine. So, he's gone back to England. Haha, get it? So Tomm
y B Meister De La Funkster left to go back to a country where it's minus 30 degrees yet the beer is warm. Allegedly. I won't waffle on but it's been good. I've found a new best mate there and I think I speak for both of us when I say it's been a good year. Besides, his sister is well fit. So goodbye Bri and no doubt I'll be seeing you in London before you lose the tan. Well, maybe not that quick.
After meeting u
p with Irish (Aine), another girl from 1770, we hurriedly decided to set off in a rented car for a 3 day trip to Uluru (Ayers Rock). The roads were straight enough to drive the 550Km at 140Km an hour and only need to use the brakes twice. One of those was to avoid two emus running across the road. They haven't been the same since Rod Hull left us.
First stop was Kings Canyon which was amazing. A trek in el scorchio heat and then onto the rock, which I wasn't expecting to be that good if truth be told. But it absolutely blew me away. I couldn't take my eyes off it. Apart from Toadie off Neighbours, Uluru is without doubt the best thing I've seen in Australia.

After a few days camping under the stars (literally as we had no tent) seeing t

Dinky is a dingo who sings and plays piano as soon as somebody else starts tinkling the ivories. A bit selfish if you ask me. You're playing a decent tune and along comes Dinky to ruin it with his less than
grade 1 standard playing. He has begun to make newspaper headlines all over the world and is now even a question in the 20th anniversary edition of Trivial Pursuit. The way his owner/manager/promoter/A&R man goes on, I'm surprised he wasn't sporting a moptop haircut or a fricking jumpsuit. Anyway, watch a dingo sing and play piano? If there's a box for that then tick it!
