The wheels on the bus go round and round.

Taking, or attempting to take, the nightbus is an interesting experience. I've been back in Sydney for exactly six weeks and have taken the bus on Friday 5 times.

Once I met a gorgeous German girl who looked like Diane Kruger – and even though I got her phone number and email address, my phone did not save it, alias.

I met a lovely Finnish girl, who might turn out to be a great friend — this time I was totally aware of my phones limitations and I have her number.

The other night, I met a former sniper of the Australian army. We had a lengthy conversation about God and various politicians he'd like to shoot. Mainly Queenslanders as it turns out. Who can blame him?

Tonight I met a young women, 19, who mere presence is enough to cause most men to loose their minds. She was able to deal with and handle 8 different drunk guys (no, none were me) and then she had another guy step in and berate the other 8 for being crude, vulgar and unchivalrous.

She took the fact that this guy stood up for her in her stride. The bus is always interesting and nowadays, particularly as I'm not rich, it is always worth taking. Had I known the entertainment or hilarity to be had, I would have always taken it.
