ZOMG () I am here trying to unwind after a long, hard day at work, and you girls take the thread in this direction. Looks like I will be awake for a while yet...... How are we all tonight? I am here for another 6mins before NCIS starts on foxtel... so get in quick if you want to say something!

And now Sparkadia are on! They supported Mika here!

Excuse me while I watch LT on channel v2......

What, like the one about has he heard the ringtone of his laugh I know, flights in Oz are generally pretty good these days. I have flown tiger and had no dramas (well, besides them sending my pram to Adelaide rather than the Gold Coast from Melbourne....) and I am going to KL next year for $190 return. Score!! That's where all my shopping money needs to be dedicated to! That's what I did, when I checked into my hotel I tried tosleep but that was useless! I should have just come straight down to see you guys. May have seen Luke going in if I had of.....

I would love it if Mika came to Perth, but would still def try and get over to Syd or Mel for those shows. I have been trying (unsuccessfully!) to put some money away to pay for airfares, accom, etc. If things keep going the way they have been and I stop spending I will end up with enough to see him in London (okay, I only have about $250 so far so I won't get my hopes up just yet!)

AHHHHH............. This is what I was looking for! Thank you!!!

Am I too late or have I managed to do it again...... http://chaos.com/artist/mika_49159.html

Good idea! Having birthdays or Christmas around the time you go away is always awesome. I like that movie- I watched it ages ago but it was sweet. My dinner was nice- the restaurant we go to (Han's Cafe, which is like a Vietnamese chain here in WA) is cheap and easy- to feed me, mum and the 2 kids cost me less than $30! I only go out for expensive dinners if work is paying

Hello, hello hello!!! Hopefully my absenses from here will not be as long as they have been this week- I am still trying to recover from my week away from home, and unfortunately my recovering isn't just because of the amount of alcohol I drank (well, not entirely anyway!!) Anything exciting happening? I am taking my mum out for dinner tonight, to say thank you for looking after my rotten children all week!

HEEELLLLOOOOOOOO!!!!!! wow- I miss this place, but I have been so busy with work it is just crazy! I left home at 8:15 this morning and got back at 10pm- didn't get to eat anything until about 5pm and got stuck making coffees from 7pm til 930 in one of the stores! I raced back to my hotel to get room service, which had shut, but the nice young manager in the restaurant that I took some franchisees out to last night recognised me and made the chef do something uo for me- he even remembered what drink I was ordering last night- very impressed! Needless to say I shouldn't be on here cause I have another early start but I had to pop in and find out what was happening- so share some goss!!!!!

We can never post that Mr Bean photo too many times!!! Don't know if what you may have heard could have been Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam- I have heard his version on the radio before, here is a link to it off youtube It feels like forever since I have been on here, between the server being down and being busy with work. I am in Adelaide now, flew in from Darwin late this arvo and have just had drinks with a couple of girls who work in the stores here, lovely evening. But am very glad I can come and chill out here

Ahhh, such happy memories!!! But I honestly thought we would have had a return visit by now It was fab meeting everyone there that day and that's why I can't wait to get everyone together again (oh, I am sure the concert will be pretty good too !)

Hi HK! Hi Silver! Cute video OkD! Almost our one year anniversary

Which means it is only a few days til the Aus One Year Anniversary

Oh, god-could you imagine if a random ticket now turns up in the mail cause they tracked down your mum from her mobile number!! That's hilarious. I am still soooo pissed off about my dumb ticket And I only just noticed the edit you made when I reread my post! Oh, I am off to Darwin and then Adelaide on Sunday through to Friday, am hoping to catch some sun in Darwin (my luck they will probably have thunderstorms!) but one thing is for certain- plenty of alcohol will be involved with sveral "work" functions already planned It is the only time I get to drink!

Hi everyone! Hadn't seen that before, but it is soooo true. Not that I go that many concerts (not as many as I want!) but everytime a concert is announced Perth is always on there. Timbaland is coming and only playing Melbourne, Sydney & PERTH! That would be an interesting concert- does he bring One Republic, JT, Nelly, Futardo, Nicole Sherzinger, Madonna and everyone else who actually SINGS on his songs over? Bit like Mark Ronson..... male artist of the year my arse (although I do like the songs he has produced!)

Yeah, so now we just need to get him to SE Asia, get Relax to make it really high up the charts and then convince Mika to 'hop' on down to Oz, even if it is just one show in Sydney I would be more than happy with that. *concentrates REALLY hard to make this wish happen* :drool:

The cake recipe sounds awesome, would love to see it too! And we will def hang out in Oct- how could you possibly give up choc though?? I work my arse off at the gym just so I don't have to give up this vice! Okay, so instead of a petition I vote we do a fundraiser with choccies, or whatever, raise enough money for Mika's airfares (and Luke's!) and then we can pick him up at the airport, bring him to the verandah, so besides airfares there are very few additional expenses. I think it is very doable.... I went to that madonna concert- kind of glad I did now seeing as we may never see her again! OMG- I now have 32 children coming to Bailey's birthday party on Fri- I was only expecting 25 max!!! I have had to go and buy extra loot bags etc, and the Hungry Jacks party room only holds 24!!! Tan, sorry to hear you have had a shiitty time at work- fingers crossed everything will get better! Hi to everyone else!!

Can someone please clarify a couple of things for me: 1. Does my parcel need to leave here by the beginning of June (am a bit confused about the dates) 2. How much stuff are you expected to put into the parcel (I don't want to be cheap!) :thumb_yello:

Yay! How excitng!! *runs frantically to the shops to start purchasing stuff*

Right, better head off or I will be tired in the morning! Night all!

I replies anyway Kelz! I just remembered I didn't tape Jools the other night Hope it is on again......

So to answer your question from my hotseat OkD- no, carrot cake is a no-go- it has CARROTS in it Although I did once have some sweet potato and ginger cake which was quite nice (more ginger than sweet potato!) Has anyone had Chocolate Beetroot cake? Apparently it is really nice and moist, I cannot bring myself to try it (not when there are so many other yummy cakes out there to chose from!)

Invention: Something that would have made me squillions of dollars but allowed me to keep my anonymity Table top- no I don't think so. Bar top- YES!! Fav flower- not really fussed (I will take any!) but I had gerbras in my wedding bouquet. Shoes: Way too many! Over the weekend I cleaned out my closet and got rid of about 10 pairs, and still have about 30 or more (yes, it is an obsession and one that I am proud of!!)

Yay!! Pokie money for when I am in Darwin next Sunday night! I could make a heap more cash!!!
