here's a moment for my fellow Doctor/Rose shippers

So I work in a gym and being the multicultural country that Australia is, I get a lot of people from a lot of different places around the world come through and see me.

I have this online friend -- well, I've known her for about 5 years now, maybe 6 -- who lives in Tasmania. She was shocked that a)I knew it was a real place, and b)I knew where it was. Apparently she's had people tell her they thought it was made up for Bugs Bunny, LOL.

Normally if I tell people what city I live in (before they find out I'm from Australia) they ask me if I live in Scotland! Fair enough I suppose, there is a Perth in Scotland.

Although I do remember this idiot on a chat once who asked me (seriously mind you, not as a joke which makes it worse) if there was really a western coast to Australia. Uh...YES rhere really really is a western coast. I live on it!

Crazy stuff. Australia is just very used to being ignored I think XD we're so very very far away from all of you lot.

Now, see, I never knew there was a Perth in Scotland. If someone says Perth, I'm automatically "oh, Australia, right?" which I suppose makes me odd now. :/

Pretty sure there isn't. Don't ask me how I know that btw XD

I *ahem* didn't actually mention it? That bit in brackets was my own witty response. Inside my head. Yeahhhh...

Also, hang around a minute or two if you can, I'm posting fic! More angst though - must get my muse some antidepressants or something.

Yeah I'm trying to get some of them finished off and posted to clear out my fanficion folder.

Don't know if I can commit to another website to check out every time I'm online :P I spend too much time on the net as is!

Is it? Maybe I should put it on my list of places to go someday. Especially if it rains a lot like my client said - I like rain!
