uh-huh uh-huh!
Just booked the tickets, my new passport should be with me within a week and when it arrives I can apply for the online visa.
Details are as follows:
Leave London Heathrow 24th September 22:30 - Arrive ADELAIDE on 26th September 11:30
Leave SYDNEY 27th November.
So its two months of seeing you lovely lot
My plans are as follows:
Go to Australia.
Work way up SE coast staying with as many friends as possible.
Return to England 2 months on.
and thats about it, Ive spent ages thinking of what to do, then realised you would all know anyway. So, like Lightning did in London, im leaving myself in your hands (
) If you reckon something would be good to do or see then tell me and I'll see if I can.
I want to go to lots of spinning meetings.
I want to meet as many of you as possible.
I wish to chase Bender naked through a field of corn.
I want to spend some time doing nothing on a beach.
Im going to this Common Ground thing too. Is there a spare tent/ space anywhere for me to squeeze into please? The JonCof International Tent Errecting Service, Mobile Skinning Up Workstation and Hug Distributor should also be fully functional.
Can I get some sleeping space on the floor/ sofa/ spare room/ compost heap at your house please? *flutters eylids*
My questions:
Is CG like Play (99% HOPpers only)? or is it more of a public event where the average Joe Human will be walking around?
What will the weather generally be like for the duration of my stay?
Is there cake in Australia?
Can John Howard collect me from the airport in a monster truck?
Would it be worth me bringing my laptop to put all my pictures from my phone onto and to change the music collection on my phone? Reckon you this is a silly idea and I should just get a digital camera and a MP3 player instead?
Can I meet Crocodile Dundee? Can I? Can I?
Who is Bruce?
I assume I will need a plug convertor for any electronic equipment I bring. Can this be confirmed? This is a code red situation. I dont want to bring my white noise generator with me only to find out I cant plug it in anywhere.
I will probably have more questions at a later date of a serious nature, but I think thats all the major ones I need. Thanks everyone
Oh, and by the way, I have NO interest in watching the Ashes in November
Im very excited!

I met a lot of people for the first time at Common Ground this year, so my memory may be sketchy! (that, and i've just pulled an all nighter on a 3,000 word assignment, so i'm a bit out if it ). If I have met UCOF, then well met again! if not...well met!

I should be in Brisvegas for about the last two weeks of November
Im sorry for moaning on about people meeting me at the airport, its just I know I will end up getting on the wrong bus/ tram/ boat/ plane/ rollerskates and ending up in totally the wrong place with no idea of where I am, or any idea of how to describe where I am.
Having no idea where the airports are in relation to the cities, I automatically assume they are really close, and that someone will have the day free. Its just really reassuring for me when im in a totally new place to be greeted by a friendly face as soon as possible.
Sorry again for being a moany

Hehehe. Magpie season.
If you see any big black and white birds with sharp beaks looking at you, go stand near them, or better still, their nest. They love you and will try and kiss you. Go on, try it.
