So long, farewell!




A wise young woman once warbled:




So long! Farewell!

auf Wiedersehen

Adieu!




Just as Fraulein Maria was sent off to see the world beyond the walls of the Nonnberg Abbey, so too doth EuroTrash go.


Yes, gentle reader, EuroTrash is taking the big hike from the antipodes to The Continent. Our stops are handily highlighted as pink-bits on the above little map for you. However, my dodgy work in Microsoft Paint may cause you to be slightly mislead if you are geographically minded.


Join us for rollicking adventures through fourteen cities in five-and-a-bit weeks; using blogger.com for the first time; and our frequent use of the pluralis majestatis. We shall be doing our best to regale you with entertaining tales and superficial in depth analyses of the myriad cultures and people we encounter but if it doesn't happen we shall make it up.


Note the following expected highlights:


*Facing blank stares as our Italian language skills are tested and realising that ten years worth of lessons have been in vain!


*Seeing these terrible acts LIVE in person at EUROVISION!


*Meeting a penpal in real life that I've had since 1997! Yes! We do still write to each other!
*The use of asterisks to denote lists, and the unnecessary use of exclamation marks!


It's all happening. Finally.


Departure in nine days!
