fiesta internacional

At uni this week, there was the obligatory international student fair. the australian contingent was well represented, and for a brief while, the sound system was infiltrated by patriotic strains of Farnsey. The only hiccup was that most people thought the Uluru sticker on my face was an unsightly lesion. In its defence, it's a motif that doesn't translate well to cartoon form.


A proud pav pose. These were the second batch. The first plate met the unfortunate fate of being smashed by the hand of a rogue Frenchman. He wasn't as apologetic as I would have liked, but being the easy-going Australian that I like to think I am, I harbour no ill-feeling towards him or his neighbouring stall despite his inclination for sabotage.

Not a fan of the desert myself, but the attendees seemed to enjoy it. Once I assured them i didn't have an Australian strain of small pox eating my face.

Your pose suggests you're waiting for that call to deliver your delicious ''dial a pav''...
Is that a Mexican ring! ring !
...I hear...??
Glad to know that you've conquered your pav repulsion too as you seem to be effortlessly displaying & presenting them without your usual gagging..?
