A little bit of Aussie Culture..

One would think, that after being home for about 3 months one would be used to one's home culture?? One would be wrong.

After a meeting last night in the City I got home at about 8, ate some dinner (highly nutritious re-heated quiche and an engligh muffin) and went to bed early to read. At about 10.30 I got a call from a friend who was in the area and wanted to drop in for a cup of tea! How great it that!

Now as long as the ground rules are set, and people know that when they drop in they are not allowed to make any judgments as to how they find you it think it's great. Shelley was kind enough not to comment on the hot pink PJ pants, wild hair and pink fluffy slippers that greeted her at the door. We had a lovely chat, and cup of tea, more of a chat and she was on her way! I love this culture. Bring on the surprise visit I say!

Note: One should definitely call 2-3 mins before one drops in at such a late hour to ensure that one does not wake other one's entire household..
