ed and Ja left 4 perth abt 3 weeks ago, when i went for their farewell bbq party i asked him what would be the thing that he would miss abt this place.
without battling an eye lid he said nothing.
he is happily now either fishing or chilling out at home while ja has gone to the 'dark side' and decided to work for the enemy, curtin uni.
one snort. two snorts. threee snorts.
think of red rooster, think of chicken treat, think of fremantle fush n chups, think of somerville palace restaurant, think of......i think u get it.
anyway, i hope they are happy. i pray that God will look over them n keep them safe. its not easy to restart and uproot yr lives again aft returning but i know they are not satisfied living here. i totally understand: there is something fundamentally wrong with this place but i cant quite put a finger to it. is it the culture? the rudeness? the costs of living? the oppression? we have not been v close since we returned in 2001, each has his own life but nevertheless i was honored when he asked me to be his bestman.
now that he is 5000 miles away i wished i had spent a lil more time with him b4 he left. though we did manage to lunch at swiss culture for the final time, the damn wings were outta stock.
i couldnt go to see him off, first reason was work, that wk was horrid, secondly; i am not gd at saying goodbyes. most prob i will end up saying tata with salt water streaming down my face.
