Well, it's a weird feeling when you leave the 3rd job you've had in just over a year - still that's a symptom of the travelling thing (at least I'm not leaving becasue the companies want me to... that'd be too depressing!!)
So... I've got 2 weeks left in Sydney and then I'm off up the coast. It's going to be weird, no responsibilities - able to do what I like whenever i want to... dunno how i'm going to react to that to be honest. But the rough plan is.. go up until I come across sun and a beach, and then get myself a tan. That's about it so far. I'll worry about the rest as it comes!!
Hmm... not much to say really. Went to see Gladiator the other day and passed by Russell Crowe, who was coming out of the premiere that was on in the cinema I was going into. Funny that - it's been a week for famous sightings - Paul's piccie with Henry Rollins (look at my website and you'll see it), and then me seeing Russell and I saw Bryan Brown at the marina having lunch with his family. I keep forgetting that this is the biggest city in Australia and lots of stars live here (if I was to hang around long enough I'm sure I's see Ewan and Nathalie... they'll be shooting just down the road from where I'm living...well.. for the next 2 weeks anyway)
It's a little odd and only beginning to hit me now - I've been here for 8 months (or thereabouts anyway) - it's going to be a little sad to leave this city, I've gotten so used to it. And I'll be saying goodbye to all the friends I've made here - in most cases permanently (they don't seem the Travelling to Europe types).
Anyhoo - I'm off now to watch the Spanish Grand Prix. Have fun.
