I, of course, come from sunny Austria, the Land Down Under. Austria is truly a land of contrasts. It contains the magnificent mountain range of the Alps, famous for their wild Alpenhorn goats and great skiing in winter. It is also a sunburnt country, as described by the famous Austrian poet, Dorothea Mackellar: a land of sweeping plains, of rugged mountain ranges, of droughts and flooding rains. The capital of Austria is Vienna, located halfway between Sydney and Perth. Vienna is a thriving, cosmopolitan city, although perhaps a bit too fond of schnapps and Foster's beer for my liking (just ask Darkness, I'm sure he'll tell you all about Vienna). This is why I have moved back to Sydney after three years there. Sydney is a nice, cosy place with that real small-town atmosphere. Plus I can get DSL on the cheap. THANX
