Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Hey Hey

Well hello out there people!

Been quite a while since I been on here, I miss it! How is everyone?

Quick update whats been going on with me... I'm now living in Sydney doing IT support for a company called Electrolux (dishwashers galore!!!) - I've been craving a motorbike for a couple months now, the weather is so nice out here even tho its winter (25C most days... thats classed as 'cold')

I wrote my SV off last august which was a annoying to say the least

OK I know we laughed at you when you dropped your bike but going to Sydney was a bit extreme! Perhaps I ought to drop mine, never know where I'd end up

Hey Abyss, whats the IT market like in Oz? My colleague who I sit next to is looking to emigrate to Oz (and is an IT dude). It's something we have been talking about recently, so I'd be interested to know what the market is like there.

Cheers everyone

Hehe Ed... see what happens... Drop my bike I run away to London, write it off I run away to Sydney

Oz is great, I love it and will be out here for atleast a year before moving on to my next location (NZ at the moment but things change over that amount of time). Camel the IT market over here is very good, check out jobserve.com for some examples. Pay generally alot better out here than back home and work environments seem alot more relaxed (Its the ozzy way :P)

Any more specific questions about it drop me a PM, don't mind answering anything.

edit: Kinvig... That would becuase the photo is Obi Wan McGregor, was great going to my 1st London meet when I had shoulder length hair (Yes thats long gone now) and people were expecting that <<<<

Mwhahaha 3 years later and I'm still alive (to those that remember me :P).

1.5 years in Oz/NZ, 6 months Bristol (and a BMW 650GS) and then my last trip which was London to Kuala Lumpur without flying (Trains & Buses) and now back in London until the end of Sept... thinking about picking up another SV.
