Socceroos, Canberra, Ronan Keating & The FireBrigade!!!





Since my last post, i have scaled all the DSE (for the geeks out there, that is the acronym short for 'Dick Smith Electronics) in Canberra. I have the priveledge of staying with Margie, my dear friend who has made the 'move' to become an official 'canberran' (i dont know if that is related to berries in anyway... ) Ok, some exciting news:

CELEBRITY SPOT:
#1 Lucas Neill at the Marigold ( in sydney chinatown) on Wednesday nite (went there with the fams for my sister's birthday) although im a geek, i wasnt going to be groupie and didnt ask for a photo (he was with there having a quiet meal with his pretty blonde girlfriend).... ok for those who dont know who he is, he's the Soccerroo that was involved in the whole ' penalty in the box' thing with the game against Italy...
ok. he was pretty hunky!! (i reluctantly admit)

#2 Canberra: thought i saw the profile of my favourite boy-band celeb. Ronan Keating.
Starstruck for about 5 minutes i saw him sitting away from Margie and Jason and I eating in very trendy Manuka.. but only after Margie and i saw this guy smile... it was definately
NOT ronan... :(


oh well.

the rainy weather continues here and i cant believe i have forgotten to include the biggest sensational news of the week...

no sallee- as i have reported to you at midnite (perth time) i did NOT burn down the Rangies!!!!!


FIRE!!!!! FIRE!!!!
i have proof of the fire damage, the ENTIRE fuse box at 28A rangies is now WITH
OUT electricity for almost 5 days!!!!!!

FREAKOUT!!!!!!!

i was more disappointed at the fact the fireman didnt come and rescue me- his advice? (as i was standing outside as i saw 'backdraft' style fireman come and hose down the fire (electrical fires should NOT use Water kids! do not try this at home!)-- ' i asked :

V:"What do i do?"
Fireman #1: " Just stay inside and open the window"
V: (walks inside (its still smokey and disappointed no movie style rescue))


random Questions 101- is it expensive to get a haircut in Canberra?
perhaps-- if you include shampoo and conditioner in the sale!

ok. enough from me for today.

That's enough excitement for an old granora.

over and out!
