There are a few of us
Jewel was in Sydney earlier this year and Summer was in Brisbane for supanova and will be in Sydney for their supanova convention in October.
I didn't see Jewel, but saw Summer and she is beautiful and graceful and lovely.

If there isn't any chocolate in heaven, then I ain't going

heya Talie!
theres actually heaps of us in good old Oz. theres an old thread here somewhere...(trying to think of it's name....) and if you look at that there were heaps of responses. i think it was started in 2004ish? but auzzies still randomly find it and add to it.
it totally sucks we don't get the kind of awesome conventions that are in America, so the only way to maybe see the cast here is at supanova kind of things. i know Summer Glau (river) is coming to supanova in sydney in Oct.

GRRR.....ARGGHH

*waves* hi, i'm an aussie fan.
we'll need to rope them into heading down-under. though actual rope and duct-tape are frowned upon... well in certain circles!

Simon: Captain, why did you come back for us?
Mal: You're on my crew.
Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back?
Mal: You're on my crew... Why we still talking about this?

Jewel was great when she was in Sydney, beautiful, funny, warm and a real delight. Jonathan M Woodward who played Tracey in 'The Message' was also there and he was hilarious.

Hey mate!
There's quite a few Aussies about the site. As far as I know, I'm the lone Tasmanian Browncoat.

Hi Shiney Kitten!

Melbourne is near the bottom, right hand of Australia's mainland (directly above our island state of Tasmania) - I tend to call it 'New Melbourne' here because there is reference to such a place in 'Objects in Space'...

Melbourne held the Olympic Games in 1956!

Melbourne has the largest population of Greek immigrants in one place outside Greece.

Melbourne has the largest population of Holocust survivors outside Israel.

Melbourne was the capital city of Australia from Federation on 01/01/1901 until the official move to the deliberately planned and built capital of Canberra.

The state Victoria (of which Melbourne is the capital city) is on an equal par with California in terms of being in the worst bushfire zone in the world.

We have no major fault lines, no cyclones, no twisters, little flooding, summer temps up to 42c & winter is mild-cold but no snow!

I love it!

Love this thread too - lets stand up for the Aussies! mwaah - Magdalena x x x

I really loved watching that guy. I've never seen anyone so genuinly enthused about his work and he did a hell of a lot for the cause of conservation and protecting animals. I'm really hoping that we hear in a few days that the announcement of his death was bull like when they said that Will Farrel was dead a while back when he was filming his most recent waste of $8.00 at the theatre.

I've been a little busy so sorry for the delay in getting back to this thread.

Great to hear there are other Aussies about.

I'm from near Melbourne, so it's even better that there are a few Melbournites around!

Thanks for the welcome

I'm a kiwi, but I do like Melbourne. Unfortunately, I doubt I'll be in your fair city anytime soon.
