You finished year 12 in 1985? Dude, you are older than me by about six years but that would make you the same age as guys like Mitch Newton, Mark Watson and a few others from that "era". :lol:

i was not born in papua new guinea. i was born in hong kong.

i lived in PNG til i was about 12 and it's not a place you want to grow up. its not a place you want to live at all.

you get driven everywhere by your "driver" (a PNG native who runs errands for your parents). there are no after-school activities, no movie theatre (not a single one!), there was a state-wide curfew for 8pm (not that it mattered anyway because no one left their houses ever).

we had a 3metre high fence with barbed wire across the top, a security guard who opens the gate for my parents' cars, steel doors that automatically lock when they shut, you get the idea....

one day a band of about 4 ppl just walked into my house, cut the phone line, pointed a gun to my sisters head (who was 2 at the time) and started raiding my parents grog cupboard/safe/etc. they left our house via the HUGE glass door (straight through it might i add). after that my dad said thats it i've had enough of this shti and my and my sister (another one who was 9) came down to sydney to start school. half a year later we were joined by my parents and 2 other sisters. that is the end of my story. sorry if i have bored you. goodnight. good morning. whatever.

No boredom...a bit of excitment though. Wow. PNG sounds crazy. My uncle commutes between there and Brizzie for work.

I actually do not know for sure. Something to do with mining I think.

I had a mate from PNG named Tasi. Good dude. I miss him.

do i dare ask where did he go?
or should i not ask?

a family friend went back to PNG for the xmas hols.
i dont quite understand that.
holidays are meant to be fun and relaxing

you cant be relaxed when there are ppl outside your door with knives and guns and you cant leave your house

I dunno. He left at the end of 97. I think he did go back to Port Moresby actually.
