The Day I learnt there was a god and she's a funny bugger.

There was an irishmen (deco) An englishman (paul) And a aussie (me) sitting in a mixed dorm room. (male/female) I know this sounds like a joke you hear in your local pub. Though I promise its much more then that I swear this is fair dinkum.


I simply asked the guys what type of person would they most like to rock up and join us in the room.. Deco wanted a porn star, Paul wanted a model. I slapped their heads together and told them, we are in a backpackers. Lets be a bit more realistic, Then I said, I would not mind 3 blonde swedish female backpackers.. Both of the other guys just looked at each other then me and went, phwoaaar! So it was agreed.


Most of that afternoon, we kept talking about 3 blonde female swedish backpackers we'd like to rock up into our room..Then around 4-5pm in the evening we heard a noise at our door. Our eyes darts too the door as we see it open and hear the bang of bags and sounds of people coming in.


Standing in the middle of the room, our 3 new guest would see 2 guys in the right corner and myself in the left corner. I was on the bottom bunk.. I looking them up and down, noticed they all had blonde hair and spoke in some foreign tongue and there was 3 of them.. I looked at my 2 mates, then back at the 3 new people. I simply asked, where are you from?


Their answer solved a question I'd always wanted to know. If there was a god, How? Well their answer was, they were from sweden. The look of shock on all our faces. I then began to simply say, let me get this right, 3 blonde swedish backpackers? They said yes.. I and my 2 other mates fell to the floor in fits of laughter, because we knew, that there was a god and he had heard our pleas, but because he is a complete bastard and likes to mess with people, he gave us wat we wanted.. 3 blond swedish backpackers!


The interesting part is, we'd forgetten to keep mentioning the female part. So standing before us were 3 blonde male swedish backpackers.. Who suddenly walked into a room, got asked where they were from, then had 3 guys suddenly burst out laughing, falling and rolling around on the floor.. Would you be a little surprized at that reaction when you entered a new room?


It took us all of 10-15mins to control our laughter.. I tried many times to explain that we had spent the first 20-30mins around lunch time thinking who'd we like to move into the room.. We explained we mention 3 blonde swedish female backpackers, but for the last couple hours we had dropped the female part as we thought we all knew exactly what we wanted to turn up. But it was this day, that I knew god had been watching our little game and thinking to himself. Now, how can I mess with Deans head today? Argh, yes! that'll do it..


Just to prove we weren't bad buggers, we offered to buy these guys the first round of drinks and show them what to see and avoid.

Can life get any weirder?
