Letter from Australia No 2
Travel // Vanessa // 2nd June 2003
Dear paper-jam,
I am sorry to have to inform you that due to my lack of activity since being in Australia, I have absolutely bugger all to write about.
I can tell you that I?m no longer such a miserable cow, have begun to socialise (getting drunk at weekends) and basically enjoying myself.
On the down side I work with two of the most sour-faced Aussie women the world has ever seen, I've seen a drag show that frightened me rather than entertained me (Pricilla it was most definitely not - see picture for proof) and I have two months left before I can class myself as a true traveller and buy a camper van.
Oh, and to top it all off, the weather has been blazing hot in England, and pissing it down in Sydney. Still.
So I apologise again and you can expect my next instalment as and when I actually get off my backside and do something.
Ta very much,
Vanessa
Foreign correspondent.

It’s like a nervous thing.

They performed five-minute shows each hour and mimed (dreadfully) to Diana Ross, other very gay tunes but h0orrifically, not Abba. Was very disappointed. So hoping one day (when have a job) to go to another drag night, a classier one...if there is such a thing...and will report again with pics if I can get them.
Steve isn’t thinking of becoming one is he? Is he suitably chiselled enough to look like a very ugly woman?
