I write this in Central Sydney and am meant to be supervising a Year 10 excursion within the city, but after a late night last night that really isn't a priority at the moment, and getting some water on board certainly is! Last night was one of the fu... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=82719&go=tommyains Sun, 29 May 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=80001&go=tommyains Well Monday night at Scubar was as messy as it could possibly have been. Planning beforehand could never even imagined the sights that we witnessed, it really was a great evening with many people making the trip to Central Sydney for a great night on the town. I know the managers of Scubar, and they had planned for free drinks and entry to the place for the night and the crab races. One of the man... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=80001&go=tommyains Sun, 1 May 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=78481&go=tommyains Well after a very eventful five days in Canberra I am safely home in Hunter's Hill after such a great time in the nation's capital. I stayed in Kaleen with Lachlan Carr who worked at Ampleforth last year. We had a great time and were joined by Pat Caruso for a couple of days which was great. Lots of talking and exchanging of stories went on, but it was really great fun. We went out every night I t... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=78481&go=tommyains Wed, 13 Apr 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=76391&go=tommyains March has been a pretty active month looking back on it, and it is only now a thte end of term that we can rest. I have made the trip back to Palm Beach in desperation to try and get a part as an extra on Home and Away but with absolutely no success! We have been really busy at the school, having had St. Joseph's Day and the GPS Head of the River to supervise. The Head of the River is the main row... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=76391&go=tommyains Tue, 1 Mar 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=74307&go=tommyains Well, with Mum gone, things can certainly return to their normal state now, and the room doesn't have to be so tidy for starters! So much is happening at the moment, and although it may not all be in Sydney at the moment, it is certainly involving us. The 6 Nations has got off to a poor start for a Pom who is in Australia. But the Ireland match tonight could be the biggest test for me, as the diff... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=74307&go=tommyains Fri, 18 Feb 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=73062&go=tommyains For two weeks of my time in Australia I have been fortunate to be graced with the presence of my mother, and we have had a great time being together in Australia. I have been even luckier to have a tour of Double Bay provided which included going to Mum's old house and seeing the beautiful residency that surrounds. There was a very successful trip to Palm Beach aka Summer Bay in Home and Away and ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=73062&go=tommyains Wed, 2 Feb 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71833&go=tommyains Days 5 & 6 of the Australian Open passed pretty quickly, which was a great shame. On Day 5 (Friday) I enjoyed a great lie in after the late night beforehand, before heading to the Queen Victorian Markets in the centre of town for a quick giggle and get some food. The evening session on the Rod Laver Arena involved watching Maria Sharapova, who played some brilliant tennis, and Andre Agassi, who ne... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71833&go=tommyains Thu, 20 Jan 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71766&go=tommyains Melbourne is the most amazing city and I can only wish that I was based here permanantly rather than in pretty poor accomodation for a week. I am sleeping in a room of 18, it is like being back at Ampleforth in Bolton House I can tell you! Shocking! Hotel BakPak isn't as good as it was made out to be in the magazines but considering I have already paid the whole money for my stay I may as well sta... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71766&go=tommyains Wed, 19 Jan 2005 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71360&go=tommyains Sydney is an enormous place for New Years Eve, as all the TV channels show with their firework display. This year had been slightly turned down due to the tragedy of the Tsunami in SE Asia. The fireworks were still incredible, and everyone was on great form. Much has to be decided upon though when going out into Sydney on New Years Eve. We chose to go to one of the other gap students who have a re... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71360&go=tommyains Fri, 31 Dec 2004 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71354&go=tommyains Although it has taken some time to recover from the offical "Chaps tour of New Zealand 2004" it was certainly worthwhile. We set off deciding to take a clockwise route around the island stopping at all the destinations which the "Chaps" deemed to be worthwhile for their adventureous demands. Having witnessed the splendor of Mt Taranaki on the way up and sampling some of the nightlife in Hamilton t... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=71354&go=tommyains Wed, 8 Dec 2004 12:00:00 GMT
