It was some with some trepidation that I had agreed to meet Badger from "Vienna for Dummies" blog. I mean, meeting someone for real can be whole different experience than what your expectations might be based on their blog.
However, with our mutual friend, Jim's, departure, I thought "why not?" It will be interesting to see another persons perspective on all of this.
So, I met Badger and family in Blackheath, (Blue Mountains), on a stormy Sunday afternoon and had a wonderful few hours in front of the log fire with a beer, chatting about friendships and life's experiences.
So, Phillip-thanks mate. Great afternoon.
I look forward to catching up when overseas with them.

I never doubted for a moment that you two would get along. So glad you met!

ReplyDeleteps- merisi badger seems so...badgerish....
ReplyDeleteWe all met through blogging, strange as it seems, but also right in so many ways too. It was through you Simon that I was introduced to Jim. I'm glad you met Badger and got on well.
ReplyDeleteEllee- The internet has been a fantastic way to introduce like minded people. Overall its been fantastic. I have sadly "met" a couple of nutters but you can meet them anywhere I guess.
