We’ve landed safe and sound in Melbourne. Although I’ve got three more weeks of holidays which I’ll refer to as JEBFEST for the time being, I shall endeavour to post far more regularly now that we’ve settled down.

My attempts to save a coupla hundred bucks on our removalists backfired. Instead of reverting to the somewhat tried and tested method of packing removalist cartons upright, our genius removalists packed everything on its side. This resulted in many cartons bulging open and spewing out our possessions - I could see that they’d attempted to reseal everything back up. Yet I can’t help but feel the joke’s on them - a dildo was packed near the top of one of the boxes and quite clearly would have sprung forth in a jiggly, wobbling comedy surprise for an innocent removalist.

They also managed to break a few bits of furniture - yet, strangely, everything we insured arrived totally unscathed. Makes you wonder.

There’s a big list of gigs I’m planning to attend while I’ve got time off work. Previously, I would hide the fact that I’m a fan of certain bands, but Last.FM has kinda blown that wide open - so I’m not ashamed one bit to admit I attended the 28 Days CD launch last week. Now, all I need to do is attend a Testeagles gig (seriously, they’re still around) and I’ll be a fully fledged, er… undergraduate student in 1998.
