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. Like today I had a Personal Training session with girl from Norway who's come over to visit her Aunt. So while she's on the elliptical/crosstrainer warming up we're making small talk and start on about how she's liking Australia and the weather and ra-di-ra.

Her: My aunt says that winter is usually pretty sunny over here.
Me: Yeah usually. We've had a really cold, wet winter so far this year. Crazy.
Her: Yeah! Lol. It feels like I'm back at home. My city is like, the rainiest capital of Norway.

At which point I asked her which city she was from and she told me she was from Bergen.

Of ALL places. God I tell you, I had to try to stop myself from loling.

Me: Oh yeah - I've heard of Bergen (only because I watch Doctor Who...)


Ahhh - television! Even the fictional shows teach me stuff! XS

Now tell me there really is a Bad Wolf Bay and I'll be laughing. Did she have any idea what you were talking about when you mentioned Who or did she look at you funny and slowly back away?

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.

*sporfles at your icon*

Yay, the fic is really pouring down now. That's nice since I have only notes but haven't looked at mine for a while. Trouble is, I've seen a few similar things posted lately and although I'm not worried it's too similar, it may be too much of the same type of fic. So I'm taking my time.

I got that icon from someone at Gallifrey Base, I love it. Have you joined there btw? You really should.

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!
