The problem with Oz is that the vast majority of schools are either RC (technically speaking I can apply but I'd have as much chance getting a job in one as I would a Jewish or Muslim private school) or they want you to have a visa in the first place.

I don't really fancy Oz anyways.

However on a more cheerful note it would appear that the fates have made my decision. I yanked out my modem cable (saudi dsl ftl) got my bits and pieces together to finish off my planning and then realised that the one set of lessons I needed to plan for, I don't have that actual curriculum on my flash and the hardcopy is nice and safely locked away in my classroom cupboard

Pool and I can't even remember what it is i'm going to be drinking (mental note: don't rip off the label of new brews or you'll forget what they are)

At the very least it can't be worse than the florida's grapefruit and cranberry stuff I tried out yesterday. if I can only manage a few mouthfuls before tossing it away I doubt anyone on the compound would have entertained the thought of drinking it.

Ironically enough just received an e-mail from a mate I used to work with saying:

Hope you're behaving yourself in Saudi. Job situation here is worse than ever.

keep praying in the church of rock.



I quite like that last line. i shall need to plagiarise the shit out of it on a future song.
