I hate Summer. I don't feel like going anywhere in the heat and drains my will to do anything. So I stayed home and had a quiet one. I made some lamb burgers.

well now there was plenty of "rowdy" celebrators:D on the train stations /trains, cape flags, face paints and sunburnt as heck hehehehehe:p:D it was an interesting and freaking HOOOOOOT train ride back home:(:(

Not to sound like a p@#$! Liege, but I really don't envy you guys who have to travel by train in Sydney on a daily basis, the South Coast line is dodgy enough. :(

Hope your day wasn't too bad at work either dude. :o

Spent the day on the lounge letting my leg heal which sucked because my neighbours and some friends had a beach party. I decided not to go because I know I wouldn't of been able to keep out of the surf and would of ended up doing even more damage to my already damaged leg.

Too hot for a BBQ (mates place has no shade near the bbq, could have cooked the steaks on the concrete!) so stayed indoors with air-condition cooled beers, and watched Michael Clarke further prove he needs to be dropped from the Aussie squad.

Also watched Machete, some very inventive kills!

Well, I decided to take a 5Km walk over to my mate's place to have a max of 4 beers, gotta watch my figure :p, and to celebrate Australia Day - I waited until 6:30pm to leave hoping for a reduced temperature, it sort of worked. :D

Anyhoo, I got there and was promptly told that my mate was going to do a Burnout, as he is quite a Rev-Head with quite a bit of experience under his belt and hasn't done one in quite some time ;), to which I naturally assumed he was going to roll out his old Toyota T18 and do it in the street...

How wrong I was! :p:D


The highlight of my day. :cool:

I just stayed inside all day trying to keep cool. I thought that it was as hot as it's going to get around 1 PM when the temperature started to dive. How wrong I was. Hello 40 degrees at 6 PM :mad:

It's been so long since I've smelt rubber like that. :D

Went to bondi late afternoon. Didn't know the parking rates were different on different streets :( - just overpaid but it was good. Although there were lots of people, the water was still great. Had allergies later on though.
