Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to this, however I am planning on spending my Schoolies in Melbourne. That'll be end of October, November kind of timing. I'll bring my bowler.

I didn't mind Crackenham... being born and bred a Salisbury boy, it reminded of where I grew up. Especially all the mullets.
I continue to deny that is anywhere in Melbourne's outskirts. An ex of mine came from there too. Another valid reason to pretend it doesn't exist...
Okay... you can deny that place but then I'll just have to use Frankston as my example of Victoria's imperfection.

I hate being in England, and a minor, and lazy.

Calumon: Could be worse. You could be fat!

Jack: I'm fairly sure the only Reason I'm not fat is because I play with you so much.

Calumon: ^^

Well I'll cement it into your mind further; If the collar is the beginning, contemplate the middle and end... :O

And you won't need pics, you can come see for yourself..[sub]Ah, I can't be bothered to actually bring a collar[/sub]
I'll do it, want spiked, dog, leather or felt?

Traveling from Brisbane all the way to Melbourne just to meet a bunch of internet nerds...

SOUNDS FUN.

I might be there if I have nothing else happening.
You sound like my kinda friend, did the same thing for Beermagedon a few years back

Churchill isn't that bad, its the Don that you need to worry about. Its not nearly as bad as Moe town or Traralgon.

In in Adelaide and although I could probably drive to Melbourne on one tank of gas, I dunno whether I can be bothered. Also, it's Victoria, so... :p
Oi! That's "the beautiful, wonderous, fantastic, delightful and perfect State of Victoria" to you, pal :p
Hehe, "perfect state, beautiful" yeah right, bud. From what I've seen the streets are hard to navigate and the air smells like crap.
That may be true[footnote]Wouldn't know, can't smell for shit.[/footnote], but we've got the cleanest-tasting tap water this side of the equator.
Untrue. Go to Mossman, QLD.

Ever heard of Mossman Gorge? It has more visitors annually than Uluru (you know, Ayers Rock).

Well the fresh spring water is filtered by recently intalled, state of the art microfilters (don't have all of the details so don't ask for them) which cost a pretty penny. Over a million dollars in cost of parts, not labor, if I'm not mistaken.

Tastes better than Evian.

Surprise me. Super surprise me.
Don't tempt me

Another ex, another town.... Still in denial. Although at least that's near the Mornington Peninsula, a most delightful and frolicsome location :)

Considering Adelaide's reputation for freaky cult murders, it's probably best not to.
Heh. I missed the memo. Last I heard it was still kinda boring :S

[small]Seriously. I don't think I've ever heard anything about Adelaide except "It exists"...[/small]

Did somebody miss Broadmeadows? Franga's just... uncultured, uneducated. Can be fixed except it's funnier this way. Dandy's not too bad, except a few of the migrants unfortunately missed the memo that THIS IS AUSTRALIA, WE'RE ALL MEANT TO BE SAFE HERE and consequently armed up (thereby ruining both our rights to safety). Reservoir could be worse. MOE as you put it... Well, less said best said. Although slippers do come to mind... I haven't been down there since I was like, 16 (which was 7 years ago). Heh.

Try BOC HIWL! (Box Hill). My town. It's Asia-in-Australia. Yummy food and cute stationary shops though lol
