Sydney, what can I say the longer you are here the better it gets, until you don't have a job and you realise that you don't have much money left... Matters not the Sydney festival and now the Chinese New year have managed to provide Jill, my flat mates and myself endless amounts of entertainment! The main attraction of the Sydney festival was of course, for those at uni who saw and met him Reggie Watts, and I did managed to bump into him in the park (Not hunt h...
