Myki problems

So so so,
This "smart" ticketing system has been rolled out for a little while now.
I personally have not had any experience with it, apart from addressing some of its issues on this blog.
As a Melbournian I use public transport a lot, but I have not felt the need to adopt it yet.
I thought I would put the question out there to anyone reading to comment on their experience with Myki, and let us know how the experience is/was.
Feedback would be much appreciated and you can help out your fellow Melbournian.

The city circle tram.

One thing that makes melbourne a cool place, is the awesome tram network we have.
Not a lot of cities can boast such a public transport system.

And to throw in a free service that shows tourists around and gets locals around with out the hassle of getting myki.

I love the city circle tram. Keep chugging away old fella!

Ben Cousins – Such is life

Wow, Ben Cousins.

I was not expecting this show to be much. I honestly did not like this foot ball player at all. But since getting to know this bloke from listening to him on Nova 100, I've begin to like his character.

Yes, he has done some stupid things. Yes he was a drug addict. Yes he is possibly not the best role model this country has had.

But lets be honest. The guy has got courage.

To put it all out in the open, and tell the whole world his problems with drugs and how he over came it all , is very courageous.

Ben Cousins, you played one hell of a game of football, you entertained us with your antics, and you inspired us with your fortitude. Lets hope your story reminds us how bad drugs are, and how much better life is without.

Ben Cousins, Good luck mate. - Such is life , right?

Trains trains trains

Ah yes! Another day, another late or canceled train. Today this passenger has the joy of being jammed into a later train due to the earlier one being canceled.

Not just running late, which is the norm, but canceled all together.

Which ever political party promised to fix this disgrace of a public transport system would of had my vote on the weekend.

Come on boys and pull your finger out

Update: the train has stopped in between platforms somewhere, and at the last few stops the train has been so full no one could get on. I find it so funny that all the scum bags can get a seat due to getting on the train at the earlier stops, and all the suit's that live in their expensive homes near the city either can't get on the train, or have to stand there and watch the junkies wake from their dug induced sleeps.
Its a class war on the train, and the outer suburb folk always win!

Mondays I hate you.

God I hate mondays. I feel pain when my alarm goes off.
Another week in the life of the rat race.
Each post I like to write something positive to end the post on high note do here it is.
Its almost 11, which means it's almost lunch time, which means, most if the day is kind of done. I may be reaching but keeping positive will get me through the day.
Oh and spring its here soon, and spring in melbourne is the best.

The melbourne cold.

Its that time if the year again and the cold seems to be affecting everyone. And I'm not describing the chilling temperatures that keeps me in my bed for a little longer each morning.
The flu, or the cold, seems to have hit us hard this year. It seems that everyone has had it in one way shape or form. And if you haven't experienced it yet, good luck.
This year my symptoms were crazy headaches, runny nose, and it felt like razor blades were going down every time I swallowed.
Some antibiotics and ' rave strength' cold and flu tablets kept me going. It seemed like everyone at my melbourne chemist were asking for ' what he's having.' The chemist should of had a special flu pack, would of made a killing.
So, to wrap up, lets try keep our colds and flu to our selves. Its a dish best served for one.

Liberty fitness personal trainers melbourne

So summers coming soon so I thought I would start to get my body into shape, and I'm possibly the most unmotivated at training, its a curse. I met one of the guys at liberty fitness who thought he could help me.Liberty fitness arePersonal trainers melbourne, and I never thought that getting my own personal trainer would help me,
How I was wrong.
Not only was I shown where I was going wrong when I was at the gym, but helped correct my posture, pick the right foods and I have had some awesome training sessions.
To say that my body feels better since going to Liberty Fitness is an understatement. I have more energy and I feel a lot less tired, which is a very big deal for me.
I never thought I would so it, but I've signed up to do their boot camp program, and thank god its indoors!
I feel better than ever, having an expert show me the way, has changed my life.
Not to sound like a commercial, I just wanted to say that its time for Melbourne to get their bums into gear, summer is on the way.

Flinders st station

Ah good old flinders st train station, this place is as melbourne as lord melbourne himself.
Everyone living in melbourne would have come through these platforms at least once in their lives, so in a way it something that everyone of us has in common.
And I like that idea. Its a place that unites us. From the gothic kids on the front steps, to the thousands that commute to and from in those cold winter mornings.
Next time your in a packed train, turn to a stranger and have a chat about how good this city is.
