Depends what you want. Sydney is a beautiful city, the biggest, most internationally recognised, has amazing beaches, great pubs, gay capital, and is central for travelling the east coast. It is also the most expensive, a bastard to get around, difficult to find a place to live in within reasonable commuting time and it rains statistically more than Melbourne. Melbourne is the sporting capital, the art/culture city, great public transport, closer to the snow, cheaper to live, better clubs/not pubs though, and much more relaxed. The beaches, beautiful as they are are an hour away, it doesn

Man there has been some fickle arguements there. I can't be bothered mentioning them all but I've go no time for someone who sells their body for cash. I'm not talking about your mind or physical attributes, I'm talking about prostitution. I've never been there, never will, never even thought about it to be honest. It disgusts me even thinking about it. If you can't get some action, lower your standards. There are always people who are in the same boat and want some lovin'. Sure, some people get caught up with drugs and are forced to sell themselves to pay for it but what, an

Do you look (insert your nationality here)?

I get told I look Italian all the time . I think the only thing that resembles and Italian is the black hair. -
Love the stuff. Brought some over from Japan but have run out..Bought some in an Asian supermarket but it is so much darker and doesn't have the same taste as the miso I was used to in Japan. How many different types are there? I'm probably being terribly naive.

I struggled with that for a while because I never knew how to spell Toque..I thought it was as easy as Took. I was reading 'toke' and could not for the life of me ever remember hearing of something we wear being a toke. Its a silly name for a beanie anyway. -

M*A*S*H - what do people think?
neversummer replied to Plucky's topic in General off-topic discussions
Yep, we got it in Oz, everynight during sh*t season (summer) on channel 10. It went hand in hand with all the other shows that no one watched during winter so they put it on TV when people were out at the beach or having a BBQ. -
I think Louis Vuitton (sp?) handbags were trendy for Japanese women to have but now are not!

I spent 4 months at the German Sports university studying Sport Management and spent a lot of time with people involved in the Testing Labs. This is where all tests are sent in Germany for analysing and their opinion was that 90% of athletes are on something, that you cant test for what you dont know is out there and that drugs will forever be in sport because of financial gains to those who win. THG would not have been known about if it weren't for a coach finding a syringe and handing it over to authorities, who tested it, found an abnormality, devised a test to catch people who were ch

Mocking an Aussie - according to the Mirror

Surprised it wasn't in the 'Star' -
I'm thinking of doing this from Beijing to Moscow next year and wondered if anyone else had ever done it? Starting in Thailand, going to Loas, then Cambodia, Vietnam and onto HK. Taking the train to Beijing where the real journey begins. Going through Mongolia rather than around. Any info would be helpful.

If thats the best the British Newspapers can come up with to make people laugh, then I suggest they look at the English Rugby side..It a real 'side splitter'~!!! -
what's everybody listening to now?
neversummer replied to Dokumanju's topic in General off-topic discussions
Just pulled out my Primus collection for a listen..I'm still amazed by Les Claypools bass antics back in the late '80s. Songs like Tommy the Cat, Jerry was a Race Car driver, Harold of the Rocks make me wonder what music could have been like if more music was bass oriented rather than guitar. -
I don't think you'll hear it at all. Maybe the first verse, because from then on you only hear the roar of Austrlians singing louder. The English have their Anthem sang first then the Aussies, then Waltzing Matilda although this is not an official song, then game time. It feels good to be there Kamo.

Miteyak, I should have pointed out I've never been to Italy or France so can't comment on those two countries. I prefer the range of cheese, cured meat, fruit, bread, coffee and cereals on offer in Germany, Austria, Belgium, and Holland than to that of England. I can't stomach Baked Beans; seems to be an English/Colonial thing. Do you seriously like black pudding? Its not for me. I guess I just think English food in general is boring. Maybe its because I'm Australian and most of our food thoughts originated from the UK but once I was able to experience food from other countries, esp

I'm not sure because I forgot you were in Japan. If you were in NZ they would all be gone for 2004, I'm assuming that but when I considered doing it in 1997, the best I could do was apply in Nov 1996 and get a visa for 1998. The Canadian Embassy offers a certain amount of places to Japanese people and residents so I would try the embassy ASAP and hope that all the visas for 2004 haven't been allocated. It's so popular for Oz/NZ crew to head to Canada but I'm not sure about Japanese. You could be lucky.

When my mates from Innsbruck first told me how to eat a white sausage I thought they were taking the piss. 'Dip it in mustard and suck a white sausage'!! I was like..NO WAY. But it's the only way to do it. Europeans have the best sense of breakfast when it comes to variety, not including England though.

How often do you drink alcohol?
neversummer replied to rach's topic in General off-topic discussions
Sometimes it depends on the mood I'm in at the end of the day. If it has been a crap day then I'll have a drink. I like to get home and have a beer, Bass Pale Ale works fine for me, put on some tunes whilst cooking some dinner -
This sounds dodgy as but its how its done in Munich.. Gotta love dipping the white sausage in mustard, and sucking the insides out, followed by 2 large mouthfulls of Weisse. Allow the taste sensation to register with the brain..Mmmm that was good..and repeat until the sausage is gone. Repeat with more sausages. For breakfast this morning I wasn't able to have that so settled with Swiss Museli, Natural yogurt, fresh peach..sliced and added to the bowl, and a cup of green tea.

My lack of foresight is not up to standard..I'll be going out with my mates for copious amounts of alcohol this Saturday morning to watch the Aussies defend their title as the worlds best Rugby nation.. hehe
