Even as in about as far away from everywhere else as you can get ;)

No offense meant, I know quite a few people from Australia and without exception they're really nice.

Far away from where? I'm 6 hours from Singapore, 7 to HK or 9 to Tokyo, and - more importantly - they're mostly straight up so there's no jetlag. I think you live far away from everything! ; )

No offence taken, of course!

Paris 4 hours by car, Amsterdam, 2, Brussles 3, Berlin 6 ;)

I should come one day to visit Australia.

Wow. I don't know where I got confused but for some reason, I thought you were Canadian. Oops. I love Europe, though - been to all of those cities except Brussels.

Let me know when you do make it down under - beers are on me!

I've lived in Canada for 5 years, I still have a 'token' paper presence there but I'll wind that down this year because I definitely won't be going back.

Also plenty of my domain names are still registered to the Toronto office.

So that's really not your fault :)

I live in the South of the Netherlands right now.

Maybe he's a New Zealander?
