[22:16] A man with no luggage must play on the Interweb
Date: 5/29/05 at 6:16AM

Goddamn bastard Austrians took what I thought was my handluggage :(

On a seperate note. Samsung have littered the international terminal with free internet kiosks. The IP I'm coming from is 203.49.200.243, which I'll have a look at later. Theoretically I am paying for this by staring at the advertising plastered all over the stand (and off course by mentioning them in my high-profile, high traffic blog) but I suspect they're covertly monitoring keystrokes to grab passwords. It's running a nicely locked down 2K build by the looks of things. I hope I haven't caught anything nasty from this keyboard.

OK, since they're not going to board us I'll play on the interweb....
Apparently my IP resolves to visp.inabox.net. inabox.net resolves to 204.255.30.37. My IP seems to belong to Telstra.

Boarding time...

[20:07] How to not get to the UK in one easy step
Date: 5/29/05 at 4:07AM

Easy! Go to the wrong security gate mere minutes before your flight leaves! I tried this exciting experiment this morning but due to the fact that I fly too much (once a year in my opinion) and now know that carrying Swiss Army Knives, Keys, Metal Buttons, Foil Wrapped tasty treats, wearing evil boots with Metal Eyelets Of Death and having too much iron in ones blood are all criminal offences whilst travelling via air in this day and age I went suitably enunencumbered to the airport. Seconds after my error was discovered I managed to flee to the other end of the terminal (bless the Canberra "International" Airports tiny little boots) AND get through security again before my plane got bored and left.

So, I made it too Sydney and soon I will line up for the next plastic glove search to get into the International side of this airport before winging my way to sunny Vienna for a glorious 3 hours of relaxing airport perusal before the final leg of my journey to the UK.

A quick note for bloggers: The Inquirer has an interesting article on the pointless of living out here in the blognoence.

[15:02] To infinity and beyond
Date: 5/28/05 at 11:02PM

Well, today is the day!

In hindsight, chocking up yesterday with social obligations was not a great idea but at least I saw some folks! My bag is packed and whatever is left is....well, left I guess. Next stop London!
