Just starting up another thread because thread no. 2 was closed.
Anyone here from Vic??

Well g'day mate, lets put another shrimp on the barbie! Crikey!


Okay, you got me. I'm not really Australian. Had you going for a minute there though, didn't i? :P

sometimes, i hate our stereotype so much... the other times i absolutely loathe [stronger word for loathe?] it

Anyone ever been to yabby creek?

sorry where? i'm a sity guy sorry mate.

btw CotA, kilts are awesome! i wanna where one when i march on anzac day!

I'm not really australian either! (i'm not a bastard either (sw))

Yep, It's me. I'm a Kiwi! But rove is funny and I love Irish comedians. That is all.

Oh, and I sorta have a mullet!

So there I was changing the TV channels and what did I see on 20 to 1 TV's couples, at No: 11 was Buffy and Angel,......... and no mention of Giles!?

Oh man that blows! I watch 20 to 1 religiously, (despite it's crapness) but I didn't watch it last night cause I was at my parents watching football.

I agree, number 1 spot definitely should have gone to Giles and I.

Who do we all go for in AFL here?
...Richmond...

Sorry I don't follow AFL.

Go the Lions!!!! (sw)

GO THE DOCKERS!! Lol I know they are a bit sad but I have been a member since they started. Acutally I dont think Im a member this year, too little funds :( but it doesnt matter I shall cheer infront of the tv and watch them lose instead. We are FINALLY getting some winterish type weather, its not poured down yet but its threatening.

My Dad and his wife went to Summer Bay when we were in Sydney, I didnt get to go cos I got out of their as soon as I could :p But dad was stoked cos on the Summer Bay diner set it has the head lifegaurd as "A.Stewart" which is his name! Hehe he got a photo of it purely because his name was on it :p Been a long while since he was a lifeguard tho, I think the last time was when we were still in nippers!

Has anyone here read the 'Tommorrow when the war began' series? I looooooovved it in highschool and have just started readin it again. I have to find the last book somewhere tho cos I only have the first 5. Might take me a while to get thru them anyway so I spose there is no rush to find it. Actually Im sure my little sis has it and since she is gallivanting around europe now I can go raid her bookshelf (sw)

I have that serie minus the last book too!
Best series I read as a kid. But I hated how it ended.

Just thought I'd let you guys know - if you've got foxtel - Dollhouse is going to start airing on the 9th of June!

I've been too lazy to download them - so I'll be putting that on series link to record :D

I just finished The Other Side of Dawn the other day. I never liked the ending either but its kinda hard for it to have ended any other way :p Give me a new appreciation for the kiwis tho haha. I havent read the other 3 that he wrote, the Ellie Chronicles or something like that, I cant remember. Might try and find them some day.

No foxtel for me but Im guna buy the DVDs anyway. Foxtel gets all the good stuff!
/me goes back to her cardboard box.

I miss home, I miss home, I miss home!

I miss sitting in sushi train and getting yelled at by the guys that make it...I miss the beach on a warm day...I miss random ball games in the park followed by a PROPER barbeque (not one that comes from a tiny foil thing!).....I miss juking out to cover bands at the pub....I miss summers of blistering heat! I miss driving (Oh GOD, do I miss driving!)...I miss Twisties and Minties and Fantales and Lift......


2 and a bit months to go....yay!!!

Hahaha Bunnies - I even came out of lurking momentarily to beat you to it ;P

Aussie - those other series were related? I never read them as is evidence by the fact I was unaware they even existed lol

Yeah they're related. I did end up going to buy 'The Other Side of Dawn' and since it was the latest release of it, it also had the promo page type thing in the back for 'The Ellie Chronicles'. Its 3 books (While I live, Incurable and Circle of Flight) set after the war but fighting has flared up or the war has started up again so she is back in combat mode. Thats about all I know about it haha.

I hope any QLD members didnt get too much damage from the flooding. Kass did it reach your parents place?

We had a bit of a wild storm here this morning, not much damage thankfully but Im not sure if it is over yet or not. Its just kinda calmed down and given the water on the ground a bit of a chance to soak in :p

My parents' place is fine. All my dad says is that they've had so much rain that they haven't been biking for a couple of days (my parents are on some random health kick or something...gonna love facing them when I get home...UK blubber everywhere.....ugh!), but other than that they're pleased with the rain.

So Im off to Sydney again in August, Hoping maybe to catch up with a couple of you? I will be there from about the 21st for a few days. I'll probably be staying in a hotel in the city and would love to go out for a few drinks or something.

Any-one heard anything about Dollhouse being on the tv?
There was this big thing about how it was going to be shown here, but I've seen no mention of it.

When I was housesitting for my friend who had Foxtel, it was being shown then. Im not sure if it is coming to free to air tv but it was defiantly on foxtel.

KiaOra haha, Im a Kiwi.. *waves* :grouphug:: peek:

I'm a Brit living in Aucky, how's it going ?

I'll be back on Oz soil in... *counts on fingers* NINE DAYS!!!!!


Eeeeep!

Hey.. Its going well. How you finding Aucks?? Been in NZ long??? :cheering:

Techinically hon, I'm touching down right in Brisvegas so I'll be real close hon! (sw)

You'll be like an hour away!! That thought makes me happy! lol!

*goes to airport and sits in corner* (sw)

Any-one heard anything about Dollhouse being on the tv?
There was this big thing about how it was going to be shown here, but I've seen no mention of it.

Like Aussie said, its definately being shown on foxtel, i am pretty sure the channel is FOX 8.

I have also heard that channel 10 (free tv) owns the rights to it and could possibly show it as well.

Didn't know about the Channel 10 thing but I do know that Fox 8 is showing it coz I've been recording it for one of my teachers. LOL! There's a site on the internet that can let you watch the eps as well if you want the address!

Just wanted to mention here that I very much would like to move to Australia permanently. I don't hate the US or anything, rather I simply think I'd love it there. Not sure why exactly, I just happen to very badly want to be there.

Dude, I am so with you. I went to melbourne at the beginning of the year. It was BLOODY BRILLIANT

Been enjoying watching my BTVS DVDs again, up to Season 4. : popcorn:

They hate us usually when it comes to the Ashes (Cricket) or the Rugby, don't know why, the way we have played in recent years we've been fairly crap (excet for the present series!).

LOL me too

Kinda hate buffy from season 5 though!

Australiaz! You can join in, we are talking about buffy you know ;)

Yeah, I started to dislike it alittle after seanson 4, but havnt watched it in aaages, so from season 5 its growing on me. Just purchased season 5 - 7.

Come on Aussies :p

Ooh 5-7 is good! Although, I'm not a big fan of 6

Im not going to Sydney this weekend anymore so sorry guys :( I was looking forward to meeting some people but oh well, perhaps I'll come over another time to meet yas. Hope you all have a great week and weekend :D

Ooh 5-7 is good! Although, I'm not a big fan of 6

Just seen the most randonish thing on TV2, you can buy the whole Buffy DVD series and get a book, new one comes out each week, starting at $4.99..hmmmm ::huh1:::thought:

yeah thats the buffy magazine, it's been out for a while now, you might not be able to get the first couple of issues.
issues 1-3 are dirt cheap at first and then the price jumps so, just a heads up.

Agree with spiders...
We don't HATE Brits or the English, it's just a rivalry sort of deal, much like how NZ feel toward us. (sw)

We are an extension of your monarch and they are of ours :P (...as well as yours...)

To buy a DVD with 3 episodes and a magazine? usually cough up the $19:95, given that it'll be for 50 or 60 weeks expect to pay over $1000.

I actually have a Barmy Army T-Shirt :D, just found it.

Just seen the most randonish thing on TV2, you can buy the whole Buffy DVD series and get a book, new one comes out each week, starting at $4.99..hmmmm ::huh1:::thought:

I saw that too! I was like wow O_o

I'm not sure about Oz but JB hi fi were selling the Buffy series off, might be worth a look, as for the magazine I wouldn't bother as it costs way too much in the end...

Is Buffy magazine still going?

Here's the site:
Buffy Angel Magazine (http://www.buffycollection.com/magazine.html)

I saw that too! I was like wow O_o

Oh thank goodness, I wasnt dreaming it haha.. just thought it was werid they were bringing it out now, when was the last time Buffy was on screen!! :whistle:

CSWEET: Iv brought a few series from JB HI-FI.. well priced.

It isnt the Buffy mag you use to get years ago, its a fort nightly thing that comes out, you get a DVD and a featured mag, first one at $4.99 then it will cost you $29.95 to keep collecting the series.

Totally randon, just when Iv brought the entire series: erm :

Yes, I think most fans have!

I was definitley suprised to see buffy on my TV screen! I saw it again last night!

my box set is back home and wish I'd bought it over, the books are good but not the same, have been buying the comics (season 8) but haven't done the last few, and Angel series too, can't wait to see Dollhouse on DVD...

Confession time -- I bought the buffy mag today..... ::embarrasment::

Confession time -- I bought the buffy mag today..... ::embarrasment::

Damn, I havnt seen it yet, but ll confess to, Id buy it... :hehe:: peek::blushy::sneakout:

Im still rocking the smilies haha.

Awesome smiley's :P

OMG, my MOTHER tweeted from my twitter :eek:

Tweet:

RikkiBB@ChristianKane01 Just wanted to let you know, in case you didn't already, that your awesome brand of Country/Rock has made it to lil ol NZ

Oh its good to be back... Hey NZers I see Dollhouse will be gracing our screens later in the year, yay or nay??? And Ill admit to I brought the Buffy mag and DVD, I couldnt pass it up at only $4.99, shame hahaha... :lmao:

What does everyone think of the first announcement for the Big Day Out?.

I was pretty disappointed, the only bands I want to see are Muse and Peaches, and I've already seen both before. I don't know if I'm going to go, how about you guys? Any of you going to fork over the 140 bucks?

BIG DAY OUT 2010 - Music Festival - Auckland, Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth (http://www.bigdayout.com/melbourne.php)

It looks pretty good to me lol, I don't think I'll be going next year though.
Some bands that I'd like to see though:
Muse
Mars Volta
Eskimo Joe
Kasabian
BlueJuice
Powderfinger.

^^Really? Hmmm, there are just no bands that really stand out to me, just ones that I'm like "Oh yer I'd take a look at them" when usually there is at least one act that I'm pretty excited about. The line up seems to get worse and worse every year, imo. And it sucks that they keep jacking up the price. I remember my first BDO back in 2003 when I was 15, it was $93 to go and the line up was Foo Fighters, Queen's of the Stone Age, The Living End, PJ Harvey, Jane's Addiction, etc. I didn't have to move from the mainstage all day, lol.

I guess I'm easier to please that you are Bunnies (sw):P

As for the acts, I haven't seen any of them live :(, but you are right in saying that none of the bands really stand out, except perhaps Muse. And there is no way I'm forking out that much anyway haha, except maybe that JPJ tour, but i think I've missed out on that.

^^Haha, I guess you are (sw).

Muse were really good when I saw them, it was at BDO but I can't remember which year it was now.

Who knows though, maybe they will have someone awesome in the second announcement, but I'm not counting on it.

Does anyone have an idea as to when Dollhouse will be released in NZ?
The rest of the world seems to have it but haven't heard anything about release dates here.....

Do you mean when its released on dvd, or when it starts airing?

Do you mean when its released on dvd, or when it starts airing?

Both, but mainly the dvd release, could have ordered it from the UK but have been holding out, might pick it up when I go home in Jan...

Do not order it from the UK without checking what regions the DVD is rated for. Also check by e-mail that the company can sell overseas as several cannot legally do so.

British DVD's are rated for region 2 viewing only.
Mind you there are a few web-sites for unlocking your DVD players viewing codes.

As for when it'll get released on the tv, I've given up waiting. I will buy the DVD. As the audience size in Australia and NZ is so small, we get DVD's long before the USA.

I'm from the UK so have a PS3 region 2 aswell as a region 4 dvd player. I order things and get my folks to forward it, the pound is weak against the dollar so works out cheaper on certain things. I think you are right about there not being enough interest but they are showing BTVS which is a blessing...

I heard a classic on the TV last night. Tony Abbot, the idiotic leader of the liberals said that, "Kevin Rudd not getting a result at Copenhagen was seriously bad for him."

That has to be the dumbest comment of the decade.
In case he didn't realise it, not getting a result at Copenhagen is seriously bad for the enviroment of the world.

Any Aussies/Kiwis still check this board/thread?

Anyway, I'm going to Supanova next month in Sydney and was wondering if anyone else was going. If so, perhaps we could meet up? Or maybe I could crash at someone's place that weekend as I don't live in Sydney, I'm just there on holiday. I'll be in Sydney longer than the weekend, but I wouldn't impose longer than the weekend :P

Hey, I havnt been here for ages, but here again for now.. Im in NZ :giggle::tongue3:

Hooray for Aussies and Kiwis! Go us Down Under people! :D

I am the only way out, I am the Door!

I realised it has been awhile since we did an Aussie rolecall.

Anyone?

Here! :D

messagetooshort

Here!

Merry Christmas!

Hello... anyone home?

Or is everyone out for the summer holidays?

No-one?

Right then, time to put on the jandals and rollout the chilly bin and get over to the bach.

Hahha jandals. That word makes me giggle. Yeah I lurk.

Hahha jandals. That word makes me giggle. Yeah I lurk.

:wave2: Sorry to spoil it for you, but jandals = sandals. (There are Aussies that do ask.)
But it is funny.

I do know that :p I just think its a hilarious word! Especially with a kiwi accent ;)

I do know that :p I just think its a hilarious word! Especially with a kiwi accent ;)

Like our current Prime Minister, John Key. What's more amazing is that after years on end in New York, he hasn't lost it (I went to LA and NY for just 2 years - I don't have much of the accent anymore.)

I say meh to John Key! hahaha

I say meh to John Key! hahaha

Well, at least he's better than Helen Clark! :p

If so, here.

Just kidding. Well, I voted for National anyway, and we got Bill English. I think.

She was our former PM, have some respect! hahahahaha (kidding)

She was our former PM, have some respect! hahahahaha (kidding)

The day after she approved brothels, one popped up behind my backyard. I'm still not happy with Clark.

NZ politics. Interesting. Although I have no idea of whom you're speaking. Not old enough to vote yet, I don't give much attention to politics. Only around election time when the parties are at each others' throats and it becomes kinda entertaining.

Did anyone watch the Chaser's Yes We Canberra? They made the election fun.

And hooray for us Down Under people! Aussies and Kiwis ftw! I went to NZ about 2 years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

The Chasers are classic.
I liked how they described every single candidate as being f-ed.

Though Double Take's faux Gillard spoofing Dolly Parton and fake Rudd doing "The Fear" came real close.

Never really cared for CWoE

Never really cared for CWoE

It's all on Youtube.

CWoE wasn't their pinnacle however, their elections specials (Yes We Canberra and Chaser Decides) are their peak performances.

Chaser's was a show to watch when nothing else was on, imo :)

To each his own, I guess. :)

So, anything interesting happening in NZ?

Rain, and plenty of it!

All quiet on the Aus front?

Rain, and plenty of it!

All quiet on the Aus front?

You thought we had it bad? They have 3 states under water. QLD, NSW, VIC.

Any Tassies about here?

You have a new Premier.

Giddings honoured to be next Tas premier (http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/01/23/3119261.htm)



Ms Giddings says it will be an honour to become Tasmania's first female Premier.
The Prime Minister has congratulated Lara Giddings on her likely rise to become Tasmanian premier, after outgoing Premier David Bartlett announced he was standing down to spend more time with his family.

In a statement, Julia Gillard says Ms Giddings is an active cabinet minister and well placed to take on the role.

Ms Gillard has also thanked Mr Bartlett for his service to the State, and congratulated him on his achievements in education and with the National Broadband Network.

Mr Bartlett has endorsed Deputy Premier Lara Giddings to replace him and expects the Labor Party to elect her as leader tomorrow.

He says Ms Giddings has the credentials to face the state's economic challenges and to lead the power-sharing Labor-Green Government.

"She has extraordinary communication skills, much better than mine, and she has skills that I think are required for the coming 18 and 24 months," he said.

Ms Giddings says it will be an honour to become Tasmania's first female Premier.

She says she would welcome the challenge and Bryan Green has agreed to stand for Deputy Premier.

It will be the second time Ms Giddings has made political history. She was youngest woman ever elected into an Australian parliament when she was elected to Tasmania's House of Assembly as a member for Lyons in 1996.

After losing the 1998 election, Ms Giddings was returned to Parliament in 2002 in the Franklin electorate on Hobart's eastern shore.

She has held a variety of portfolios including her current roles of Deputy Premier, Treasurer, Attorney General and Minister for Justice and Arts.

Greens leader Nick McKim has thanked the outgoing Premier for his hard work to establish Tasmania's historic power-sharing government, formed after last year's hung election.

Mr McKim says he is confident this can continue with Ms Giddings as Premier.

He says if Ms Giddings is elected by the Parliamentary Labor Party, she will have won the position on merit, but it will be great to see a woman in the top job.

But Opposition Leader Will Hodgman says David Bartlett has failed to provide Tasmanians with a stable government, and he does not expect Ms Giddings to do any better.

Mr Hodgman says he respects Mr Bartlett's reasons for stepping down, but says Tasmanians deserve more from their premier.

"We were promised stability, we were promised that by both Nick McKim and David Bartlett after last year's election and they said that they would govern in the best interest of Tasmanians well they've failed on every front, they've failed to deliver," he said.

"Lara Giddings has been part of that and as of tomorrow she'll apparently be Tasmania's next premier."

HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY!!!
