Update on the Cockroach wars….
Cockroaches – 2

I was sitting writing emails when i saw one right near my foot. The screams did not go down well in the internet cafe. Nor did my frantic foot stamping.
I made it! Finally reached Oz. The plane journey was mammoth. First a 12 hour flight, then a stopover in Hong Kong for six hours, then an eight hour flight to Perth.
Luckily my fears of one day being on Aircrash Investigations did not materialise and i made it safely to my destination but only with the help of a family members prescription tranquilizers (thankyou Diazapan!).
Still the flights were interesting. During the first take off i was so scared that i decided to sing about my favourtie things“…Maria never sang about scotch eggs, munch bunch drinky plus and Kinder Happy Hippos but i think she would have been proud of my warbling. Tried to get the rest of the plane to join in but no such luck.
Anyway..I’m here in Oz. Its 37 degrees so naturally, like any good englishman i have a hankerchief on my head tied at the four corners. Lovely.
That’s it for now.
Favourite song of the moment:
None…been too busy to listen to music.
Favourite Food of the moment:
Shrimps (on the barbie of course).
Book currently reading:
Flying: No Fear …Helped me through the last 48 hours. (Thankyou UCL friends).
Quote of the moment:
“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page” St Augustine said this. Stirring stuff!
Word of the moment:
Cockroach…saw my first cockroach half an hour ago. It was up one end of the corridor, I was up the other. Stared at each other for a good five minutes before i chickened out and ran back up the stairs to take the long way round to the kitchen.
