DIARY OF A POMMIE IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA
August 31 - Just got transferred with work from Leeds UK to our new home in
Karratha , Western Australia .
Now this is a town that knows how to live!
Beautiful, sunny days and warm, balmy evenings.
I watched the sunset from a deckchair by our pool yesterday.
It was beautiful. I've finally found my new home. I love it here.
September 13 - Really heating up now. It got to 31 today.
No problem though. Living in air-conditioned home, driving air-conditioned
car.
What a pleasure to see the sun every day like this! . I'm turning into a
sun-worshipper - no blasted rain like back in Leeds !!
September 30 - Had the back yard landscaped with tropical plants today. Lots
of palms and rocks. No more mowing lawns for me! Another scorcher today, but
I love it here. It's Paradise !
October 10 - The temperature hasn't been below 35 all week.
How do people get used to this kind of heat? At least today it's windy
though. Keeps the flies off a bit. Acclimatizing is taking longer than we
expected.
October 15 - Fell asleep by the pool yesterday. Got third degree burns over
60% of my body.. M! issed three days off work. What a dumb thing to do..
Got to respect the old sun in a climate like this!
October 20 - Didn't notice Kitty (our cat) sneaking into the car before I
left for work this morning. By the time I got back to the car after work,
Kitty had died and swollen up to the size of a shopping bag and stuck to the
upholstery.. The car now smells like Whiskettes and cat shit. I've learned my
lesson though: no more pets in this heat.
October 25 - This wind is a bastard. It feels like a giant f@#king blow
dryer. And it's hot as hell! The home air conditioner is on the blink and
the repair man charged $200 just to drive over and tell me he needs to order
parts from f@#king Perth ......The wife & the kids are complaining.
October 30 - The temperature's up around 40 and the parts still haven't
arrived for the f@#king air conditioner. House is an oven so we've all been
sleeping outside by the pool for 3 nights now. Bloody $600,000 house and we
can't even go inside. Why the hell did I ever come here?
November 4 - Finally got the f@#king air-conditioner fixed. It cost $1,500
and gets the temperature down to around 25 degrees, but the humidity makes
it feel about 35. Stupid repairman. F@#king thief.
November 8 - If one more smart bastard says 'Hot enough for you today?' I'm
going to f@#king throttle him. F@#king heat! ! By the time I get to work, the
car radiator is boiling over, my f ucking clothes are soaking f@#king wet and
I smell like baked cat. F@#king place is the end of the Earth.
November 9 - Tried to run some errands after work, wore shorts, and sat on
the black leather upholstery in my car. I thought my f@#king arse was on
fire. I lost 2 layers of flesh, all the hair on the backs of my legs and off
my f@#king arse. Now the car smells like burnt hair, fried arse and baked
cat.
F@#k. F@#k.. F@#k.
November 10 -- The Weather report might as well be a f@#king recording.. Hot
and sunny. Hot and sunny, Hot and f@#king sunny. It never f@#king changes!
It's been too hot to do anything for 2 f@#king months and the weatherman
says it might really warm up next week. F@#k! !
November 15 - Doesn't it ever rain in this damn f@#king place? Water
restrictions will be next, so my $5,000 worth of palms might just dry up and
blow into the f@#king pool. The only things that thrive in this f@#king
hell-hole are the f@#king flies. You don't dare open your mouth for fear of
swallowing half a dozen of the little bastards!
November 20 - Welcome to HELL! It got to 45 f@#kin' degrees today. Now the
air conditioner's gone in my car. The repair man came to fix it and said,
'Hot enough for you today?' I wanted to shove the f@#king car up his f@#king
arse. Anyway, had to spend the $2,500 mortgage payment to bail me out of
jail for assaulting the stupid prick.
F@#king Karratha! ! What kind of sick, demented f@#king idiot would want to
live here !
December 1 - WHAT!!!! The FIRST day of Summer!!!! You are f@#king kidding
me!
