Yesterday, Sydney was aflame. When you are from the British isles destruction by flame is the least of your worries.

The sky was beautiful, the streets empty. It really felt like the end of days.

Celsius wise it was 35 degrees with headwinds of 100km (I don't do Fahrenheit but multiply by a rough 3). I was blissfully unaware of all these factors until about...

So I got to Sydney in June after a gap of two years in which my life changed irrevocably. When I got here I was on a holiday visa which isn't really fun when you are skint and waiting for a full visa to come through.

Thankfully come August I got my permenant resident visa but that's when the comedy started. I had 5 days...

ARRR!!!All this riot and uproar, V is this anarchy? Is this the land of Do-as-you-please?
-No, this is only the land of Take-what-you-want. Anarchy means without leaders; not without order. With anarchy comes an age of ordung, of true order, which is to say voluntary order. This age of ordung will begin when the mad and incoherent cycle of verwirrung that these bulletins reveal has...

ARRR!!!So a tiring week, emotionally spent.

I am looking forward to the future, but its pretty difficult not knowing where I will be or what outcomes will happen. Worse things happen at sea, I just wish I could set sail.
