Being a drunken Australian works like that over hear.

I go to an international conference every two years, held in Baltimore. The best party is always where the Aussies are, no matter what time of day it is.

Never met an Australian that I didn't like. Shame about all them white fullahs though.:p


Never too early in one's forum career to seek out the inhabitants of West Island and give them some good-natured schtick.

On a recent o/s trip we found Bundabergians in the club car on the Eurostar and Sydneysiders in the bar on a Norwegian train.

Coincidence? I doubt it.

not at all...i'm enjoying the little talk.

three years. yep, we met on-line. on a john lennon website. emails, phone calls, then a visit, then fell in love, and she moved here. she's a resident now, but since we're moving there, she's not going for the citizenship.

what's your story duck?

I so love the online aspect!!

I have two online gf's that have met up with and married their online loves.

Both through the old MSN chat, one married a guy from the UK and the other an American....very cool.

Their partners have both moved here.

I remember (hopefully correctly) you said you dated for 2 years before you got married, it would really push the *long distance relationship* boundaries?

Glad it all worked out for you anyways.

Me? not much of a story really, well, except my sister actually started this membership back in September and posted once then didnt use it...so I stole it...but dont tell anyone :p

long distance is right !!! it was very tough. and we nearly fell apart a few times. but we stayed friends throughout, and the romance and sexual tension were always there. finally, we decided that we should be together, and she came over here. we're so good together. its amazing. its strange that two people from such different places can be so alike. she's really wonderful.

i'm madly in love, can you tell?
