Life Down Under
I'm currently living in Melbourne, Australia enjoying the sun, surf and sand. Got a house with my girlfriend Sally who is still tolerating my sad jokes and shite cooking after 6 years together... at least I think its 6 years (I might have to look for another home to live in now!!) I'm a permanent resident which means I can stay in the country indefinately - or as long as I behave myself and avoid murder, rape or committing suicide... in which case they might send me back to UK... on a convict ship! (Best not to use the word 'convict' around these parts as it can also get you sent back home... better to just remind of them of the Ashes instead!)
Having a ball 'Down Under' learning to play with my didgeridoo (no sexual connotations intended)... I've also invested in a B-B-Q and have been putting it to good use serving up Shrimps, Kangaroo Burgers and Croc Kababs!! So when you visit Melbourne make sure you drop by and I'll get the barbie going and cook you up one of my specialities ...
Despite taking great pleasure out of leisure (ok, ok...promise no more rhyming as it puts me off my timing)...between my leisure, I am working as State Sales Manager for an International hotel chain, which I have been doing now for 3 years. 2005 has been relatively successful with a busy 2006 ahead - the Australian Open, Grand Prix and Commonwealth Games are soon to take place... let the chaos begin!
