Home Time

It has been hard getting motivated to get some blogging in since I have been back.
When you are on the road everything is new and interesting,
and you have to tell the world.

Getting back to Perth it seems that hardly anything at all has changed.
The Convention centre is finished, the suburbs are expanding, the clubs have changed names,
apart from that, things are pretty much as I left them.

I am still getting used to the shopping hours and this new fangled "day light saving".
As if sixteen hours of sunlight a day is not enough.

Robyn and myself have found jobs in the city working for the private language colleges.
Big business here and we had no trouble walking into well-paid gigs.
Well... well-paid after Istanbul anyway;
but that is not hard.
The teachers here still like to have a moan about being under-paid.

This is understandable.
Being in Perth, you might as well be in Western Europe.
The prices are astronomical.
How can you charge four dollars for a bottle of water?
It's water!
I think I am just used to less than first world prices.

Anyway, that is my bitch of the moment.
"It was allot cheaper in my day!"

Regardless, it has been good to get back and catch up with crew.
There seems to be a new trend in having babies.
It's all the rage.
Seems to be an international phenomenon.
It keeps on happening with alarming regularity.

We have been doing the tourist thing,
showing off all the spots to Robyn.
We have been camping up at Lake Leschenaultia, to Nambung NP to see the rocks (yay, rocks!), to the PCH Veranda, Cottesloe, Trigg, Freo, etc etc.
Good to do some things that you never do when you live somewhere.

Last night we was the Beastie Boys and J5 at the Good Vibrations Festival.
But that is another story...
