Diary for Dora The Explorer


Bank Accounts, Visa`s etc

2006-11-09

So holidays over chaps for the next few weeks at least. Having moved to a new hostel ( an old sanitorium) not part nice -bloody freezing ( think mini-radiators, blankets etc) and large cold rooms. We have bunk beds which creak at every turn.

I got flashed -whether intentionally or not by an old man in his 70`s who when we both answered the call of nature at 01.00am the other morning.. came out of the bathroom with only a hand towel covering his bits - I went into cardic arrest and legged it. I hadnt anticpated seeing my first naked Aussie male like this ( sorry mum).

The sooner we leave this hostel ( next tues) the better. Have been offered to stay with Dave and Bro in North Carlton ( another suburb) indefinately on thier blow- up bed so thats great news... We`ve spent quite a lot of time with them -they`ve been fab and are great hosts.

I think having 2 new fresh bloods off the plane to take out and drink with has made thier day (for the time being at least.). On the negative side I had forgotten how much the Irish and architects can drink- and have been ill already this week. I think as soon as I start work the better.. The thought of going back to university days- Leanne who know the capacity of Dave Graham`s drinking is enough to make me run for the bowl again.
