It has finally rained. When its cloudy and the wind picks up it actually feels like chirstmas here. Apparently some people have christmas parties at this time of year because it feels more festive than the long, hot 41 degree December days. So the girls might be organising that soon :-/
Yesterday we all met up with a true Melbournian ,who my friend Alice met while travelling from Perth to Melbourne. Real nice guy. He gave me an Aussie rules football shirt of the team he supports as his Mum gets him a new one every year. So I am now officially a fan of the Saints (St. Kildas - the Brighton of Melbourne...but in more of a scenic comparison rather than gay!)
So he took us to this restaurant where you pay what you think the food was worth. I went with about $3.50 and was planning on coming back with change for the tram home. Shockingly, it was pretty good and the portions were huge. And of course it was B.Y.O so I went to an off licence and bought what they call a "goon bag". Its one of those 4 litre boxes of wine, but all the tramps take the bag out of the box and sip on it all day. No wonder cos I got 4 litres of white wine for £5. Even the homeless are better off out here!
In the end the girls insisted I pay a half decent amount so I reluctantly parted with the equivalent of £5 for the meal. lol. The guy who took my money looked pretty pissed off.
Right, i'm off to buy some Kangaroo sausages from Safeways. They are meant to be really nice, so that's my dinner sorted for the next 3 nights. Cooking is such an effort here. The kitchen is shit and I dont have any untensils so i've been slowly stealing things from restuarants including so far: a plate, a pint glass, a normal glass, a knife, a fork, a spoon, salt and pepper. I still need a frying pan but that might be more difficult to sneak out of a restaurant .
