Ben McLaughlin said...

Al- We should have a curry-off

Simone-Wow, a double Eclipse..strictly for the hardcore

Amy- I feel your number 4 pain

Maso- wow, first go parallel parking. It takes me about 4 goes when I'm alone, and maybe 17 if their are onlookers

Wendy- Don't worry I don't even like using the telephone with people I DO know

Pedro- I'm sad to have missed that legendary windmill. "All your homeboys are biters, so wassup with dat, punk!"

KIM- I hear you, cereal is the goods. It is a very trustworhy, dependable meal that never dissappoints. I get laughed at for having it for lunch at work sometimes.

Soph- I do the reflection check too! It never quite lives up to the hype..

Laetitia- Really, they didn't cane girls? I'm pretty sure they did at our school.

Ruth- Yum, that sounds like a good pie..

Georgina- AAAAAAAARGGGHHHH!! No ferrets! The world is out of balance! Please right this wrong asap.

Beth- Good on you for doing awesome in school!

Georgina said...

Dear Ben,
You made me LOL, which given the horrible sleep I (and every other Sydney-sider had last night) is a major achievement.

I'll try again:
1. Chicken soup for ferrets
2. No, but if I had the ferrets would probably steal it.
3. I love ferrets and I don't care who knows it.
4. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I love the smell of a sleepy ferret in the morning.
5. Try and persuade the NSW Ferret Welfare Society to sell me a ferret for $30. :p

That better? Lololololol...

Ben McLaughlin said...

Georgina- Equalibrium restored:)

Amy said...

I don't even have the Sydney traffic excuse as to why I don't drive either Ben!

So you have immense kudos from me for being on Ps!
