where did all my cash go??!!

[Tanky]

Hey guys, me again!
I seem to be suffering from the traditional travelling cash crisis! I'm currently in san diego and have about 100quid left!!! Then i got a call from o2 saying i had a phat phone bill and there gonna cut me off. To add a bit of adventure i'm having terrible trouble changing my ticket home. i'm not too worried, just don't wanna use the ol credit card if i can help it!
Still, on the bright side it's lovely here, v sunny and there are many many cool people. Also (thankfully) it's very cheap to eat and keep a roof over one's swede.
So, i guess i'll be back in bloody portsmouth soon!
Still having a great time, luv xTGx

i have been getting regular updates about tankys travels. i have not posted them here as i wanted to get her permissoin to do so.

the tales of goats,bearded men,leather and something like umpty candy and lots of alcholic beverages may be something she wishes kept away from masses,.

but from all her emails. she is having a whale of a time.

keep a diary when of purchases and then see where it all went ( probably booze ! )

[Tanky]

booze is the most likely suspect at the mo...followed by cheap skate shops in the US and over priced tourism in new zealand. Stupid film industry.

By all means, post away, DD! sorry i've not had time to do it meself. i forgot to mention my first sci fi convention -armageddon in auckland, where i met a big orc!

Due to many crises coming up at once, i'm gonna be back home by tuesday night. crap. I'm already planning the next 2 trips though.
ttfn! xTGx

So Tank grrrl, how was Australia?
What were the highlights? and lowlights?

yours fishoutofwaterly

[Krustabi]

Back by tuesday night eh?...

[Tanky]

Hey again! I am the queen of jet lag!
I did indeed get back home today, where i had a hot bath and my mum fed me good 'n' proper. Later i'm gonna crash in my own room in a non bunk bed with no snoring room mates...being home has some advantages!
I loved australia, Floyd. The highlight of the whole trip for me was Byron Bay+ Nimbin. Very difficult to leave, especially when the big blues festival hit town! i heard that the uk working visa for oz has been extended to 2 years, which gives me an idea...
The worst place i went was Hollywood, which is stupidly overrated and not too pleasant to live in. But at least i can say i've been, and i turned a few heads walking around town with spikey hair in all my punk finery! Shame i'm not there for the troy premier though, bet that'll be good (heh!)
I'm gonna write a piece on the whole adventure for me band's site asap. once it's done, i'll put up a link, so everyone can share the delights of horizontal bungy adventures, goldfish racing, the discovery of drive thru off licenses (i kid you not, non aussie boarders!) and Anzac day in san diego with more aussie backpackers (why is the rum gone? Because you're only supposed to use two coins!) amongst other things.
Anyways, i must away to my comfy bed soon, or what's left of my brain will fall out.
