Upside Down

I'm on the wrong side of the world.

You know when you hang upside down, and all the blood rushes to your head and you become delirious? I think that explains Australians pretty well. Certain Australians, anyway. I've met some perfectly lovely Australians, admittedly, but the annoying far outweigh the amiable.

Luckily, I'm on my way home tomorrow, so I'll soon be the right way up again. I shall be once again well and truly upright, uptight, and forthright* - all marvellously English traits.

Enough of this Aussie delirium: I'm bloody well English.

*Apologies to the man who I shouted “Get out of the bloody way!” to yesterday in Chinatown... despite the fact that he most definitely deserved a good berating.
