lyoreHappy Birthday to cloverfizz!
You know, there are times when I love living in Canberra. And Canberra Day is definitely on top of the list. Ahh, extra public holidays for us...
Of course, the downside of this is that tuesday is Harmony Day. And we can all guess how the Harmonians are reacting to this *sigh* People should really stop encouraging them. On the other hand, monday is also Navy day. Perhaps we could crash a Seahawk on them?
Speaking of Canberra, I also love the way that everyone here expects the NSW to sneak across the border and try and steal their stuff. You can't even join the video store without proof that you live in the ACT, instead of, say Queenbeyan. The fact that Woden is closer to Queebeyan than a hell of a lot of the rest of the ACT doesn't matter to them. No, NSW is just filled with devious Video!Ninjas, bent on borrowing all the DVD's in the ACT as part of their Plot for World Domination. First Blockbuster's and Tomorrow The World!
Actually, now that I think about it, the fact that Harmony day is being promoted in Canberra is making a lot more sense. The Canberrans can be all paranoid and whine about persecuted by the New South Welshmen and to a lesser extent the rest of Australia, and the Harmonians can be all paranoid and whine about being persecuted by the Herons, JKR, and the sane portion of fandom.
But hey, 3 day weekend *shrug*
