Time is up!

So as I have mentioned in previous posts, I was unfortunately made redundant a couple of months ago.  The company was making cuts and sadly I was one of them.  I am not going into my feelings about it but I wasn't too happy, put it that way.  It seems Australia is finally beginning to feel the effects of the recession.

So I have been working on finding a job but when I realised that there wasn't exactly a lot of work around and I had a time limit on finding a job because of my visa, I decided to do all the travelling you have probably been reading about.  And since I got back things haven't changed much, so I have made the decision to return home, well maybe saying that I have made that decision is wrong, it's more been forced upon me.  I don't want to leave Australia yet, but maybe it's meant to be, my visa only lasts for another 3 weeks.

So sadly that means that this blog is going to come to an end in the next couple of weeks.  So I WILL endeavour to post something each day between now and my leaving date. It might be a load of crap but hopefully some days it will be good.  

I am not 100% sure on my next destination, but it is likely to be London.  So maybe a new blog will start or this one will carry on under a slightly different name, maybe 'A Thorne in the big smoke', not quite as catchy I suppose.

I am going home (the only reason I put this in is because I love the song and the film):




Cannae beat a bit of Local Hero! If you have never seen it you can watch the whole film in 8 parts on youtube.

So in theme with posting something interesting every day, last night I went to Sydney's new Museum of Contempory Art (it had a new wing added on).  It was a load of bollocks! I actually liked the building more than anything, the art inside wasn't up to much at all.  There was a special clock exhibition on, some of the clocks on the 3 tables they had in the exhibition were cool, but a load of them were awful, like cartoon clocks and potatoe clocks! All nonsense.


Until tomorrow...
