ABOUT THE BUNGALOW
Some where hidden in the State of Victoria
Australia is a place nicked named bunga77. The bungalow is in a backyard
of the owners house, rented by me it founded it's nick by the game Escape
Velocity where I had to name my ship, I named it bungalo7 after Appollo7.
So then the bungalow was bungalo7. Letters to a friend were labelled bungalo7
and even answered the mobile phone as bungalo7. But no, this was not good
enough to my friend, he advised me to change the name after he saw a movie
where criminals were hiding out in a motel room called the Gay Bungalow
and yes, it was room 7. Quickly I added another 7 to make it bungalo77.
My pre-printed envelopes were then scribbled over to the new. That was
fine for quite awhile, everyone was used to it.
To get a phone connection in here I had to
dig my own trench and a friend wired up the line. The phone company came
along and said, "oh no mate, that line has been dead for thirty years,
you have to dig further'.
Over a course of time I kept delaying the
digging and the phone company was on my back about getting it done. I cancelled
their work order number and the phone company denied the application to
connect because of a connection already on the property. I explained it's
a bungalow and they realised it was like a Granny Flat so the application
was approved and workers arrived in a week.
There is another line a foot out from where
I originnally dug too. I would have been so pissed if I had of dug to where
they wanted me too.
I was connected and ran straight to a internet
provider. bungalo77 was too long for the user name. I thought for a brief
moment, counted my fingers and fitted in the name bunga77. Now my friends,
bunga77 is the official nick:
The bungalow has people coming and going and
you just never know what'll happen next. I set up ICQ to chat and is open
for any one to check in and find what's happenning.
In future I hope to get a camera to get
pics of the bungalow and the people that come and go, they drink, smoke,
sleep, concur and bloody leave...........
