Missing in Action

I cannot believe it has been over a month since I last made an entry into this blog!! I have been to Adelaide all of last week for a work conference which was quite interesting- funny how Adelaide really reminds me of Newcastle , just a big country town really. Had to go to sydney for work again as well- quite the jet setter at the moment. Just a statement I would like to add re. public transport, namely trains. Why is it do you think that every socially challenged individual seems to travel by train??

Coming home from Sydney on Fri night was one of our indiginous people sitting in the seat behind me, downing beers , as you do, illegally, yelling obscenities at all of us lucky individuals who happened to win the jackpot in sharing his carriage- it went on, and on and on threatening to kill us all, blah, blah blah. When I got off the train I looked behind realised he wasn't getting off and reported him to the guard- who knows whether the overworked guard really cared, even made the call I don't know, but gosh I wish these people would not use public transport like their own seedy lounge rooms. The lesson- drive in peak hour sydney traffic and put up with the carbon monoxide!!!
