Well, only Oz, actually. Going back to the country of my teenage years for the first time in almost 3 years. Way too long.
Just thought I'd post this as I've restarted my presence on the board. You guys won't notice much, odds are that I'll post more often from Downunder than I did in the last months.
And, to get into the spirit, I'll sign off with something Ausstralian: I'll see ya when I'll see ya. Til then, jymset

Don't ask me - I only lived there! Because of the book/film?
See, I'm already posting again. Sitting in Singapore airport, killing time (6 hour transit).
Oh yeah, and I forgot how much of a pain English keyboards are (z and y are changed, and so is basically ALL the punctuation).
And Sir Henry - I went on my last trip there about 3 years and a week ago. And left Dec. '99.... Way too damn long.

I just now realized how long I've been coming to an incarnation of Mordel's.... '94/'95 I don't remember exactly.... A long time...My first wife was still alive, my son was a baby and I worked nights...

| The first syllable of Australia rhymes with Oz. At least that's my theory.
