Steves Birthday in The Orient Bar in The Rocks Sydney
hi all, been asked to write a blog by steve as his last few attempts haven't been quite up to standard. Trying to think of what we've been upto and hmmm i'm still thinking.
Last week we said goodbye to Jenni, sineads friend who's been staying with us for a few weeks. Quite sad to see her go as the past few weeks have flew in with her around, she was originally meant to come with us but because of work commitments couldn't come in the end. So we went out for a few beers last wednesday nite to see her off. Had quite a good nite.
Also went to the Olmypic park where the games were held in 2000. Its a big site on the outskirts of the city, about 20 mins on the train. The centrepiece is the Olympic (Telstra) Stadium which is huge. So rented out some bikes and cycled round the site for a few hours. Quite a nice trail rounded off by yummy picnic.
On Saturday i went to the Surry Hills Music festival, which was a free event in big park with lots of different bands and stalls. So at about 10.30 made my way to the Bottle Shop( Off Licence) and purchased Kentuckys finest bourbon, Had that polished off by about 3pm and then had some of the girls wine, bought a silly hat and by 7pm i was slightly the worse for wear. So went and got fish and chips and sat in another park, which we found out was the local rapist park and where all the druggies hang out so swiftly made our way home from that.
On sunday i picked up my cousin davids' car from his place and went for a drive round the coast up to watsons bay and around there as that was the only place i was confident i knew where i was going. Had really good day along there and then left jacqui off and picked up steve sinead linda and sharon and we went to the cock and bull(god i hate irish bars and culchies, it seems that to fit in u have to be wearing your county jersey) But they do do lovely cabbage and bacon apparently. This was proven by the fact that steve licked his plate clean (although he does this on most occasions)
And thats the gossip right up until this present time when i'm in work. have an interview for another law firm in few hours so shall see how that goes. have been offered another 4 weeks here but the other place is more money.
Steves birthday this week. Im heading to the State of Origin game on Wednesday at the Olympic stadium. Its a rugby league match made up of all the best players from different clubs, kinda like an all stars game. Its huge here so expecting 60,000 crowd for the game. Should be good.
Should also be heading to Blues gig on Friday. Dave hole is the guitarist playing and apparently hes very good. Think we're going to go out on sat nite for steve birthday so pics from that and everything else we've been upto shall be posted as soon as we have opportunity to get them uploaded.
Until then, hope everyone is keeping well, and beginning to enjoy the warm weather back home while it begins to get slowly colder here 
Adios
