The Winter Palace
Today I woke up late because I was working at Johnny’s in For Lauderdale. I started training as a bartender there and I have to learn all the drinks. It’s a bit different than Montreal - alot more bottles of alcohol and drink possibilities. It’s just a kick to learn them all so fast. I’ll manage and test it to see if I like it haha 
If everything goes well and I like the job, I’ll be working there 5 shifts a week. It should be a good winter break from Montreal. I’m at work and starting in 15 minutes so I better go for now. I’ll be able to post pictures very soon. almost got my camera issue straightened out.
Talk to you in a day or so. HotAndy will post here tomorrow with my gratitude and full support. I hope you stop here to see his post, it’s importany for us all/
I think about all of you XOXOX

Hey Ralph
Glad to hear that you are working already. I knew you wouldnt stay idle for very long. Yeah it is amazing all the different drinks that we have in the US. I wouldnt even want to try to remember them all. I am sure that you will learn them quickly and be the highlight of Johnny’s for their customers. Do the bartenders go shirtless there? Looking forward to Andy’s post tomorrow. Take care Ralph and chat with ya soon. HUGE HUG and LUV YA Ralph, HotAndy and all the bloggies.

Congratulations on the job Ralph,
Wow man the global bush telegraph works really well.
I heard about your job from Mark from PA before I had even visited the blog! There you go - mass global communication.
The world is a buzz with news on Ralph Woods and his winter palace.

***Note to jamie,
I am back home now but I looked everywhere for you. I have black eyes and broken ribs from asking all the hotties in Sydney if they were Jamie - just kidding, although I did imagine that you were one of the eye-candy guys I looked at. Oh well back to the Melbourne hunks!

****PS to Jamie,
Sydney was as spectacularly beautiful as ever - you are one lucky dude living in paradise!

Hey Prince Ralph,
Congrats on getting a job so quickly! I’m sure they will be impressed at your ability behind the bar&having you as eye candy will certainly increase their trade by at least 200%!
Enjoy your new home!
Take Care
Love Jamie

******Note to Robert
I have friends in high places so I organised the great weather for you,I too went looking at Coogee&asked every hottie I saw “Are you Robert?”
I’m sure there are lots of hotties in Melbourne.I have relatives there,so if ever I get down there again maybe we can meet somewhere?
(the relatives are at Wantirna&Burwood)

Hey Ralph. Nice to hear that you arrived ok and are already working. Hope the Sunshine State is good to you for this season of your life. You are brave for sure. Lots of love to you from the Golden State.

Hi Ralph,
I know you will master all these new drinks. In case you serve someone a wrong drink you only have to smile and your little mistake will be forgiven!!! Therefore you don’t be worried about this.
good news and I hope you settle in there in Florida.
Finally enjoy your weekend, you and all the other bloggies, Stef.

Hi Ralph,
I’m glad that you’re safely and a little getting settled.
At the moment I’m still trying to get settled at my new job. The colleages are nice, but the work I still need to get used to!
Tommorow I have more time to write on your blog, and I will definately check out HotAndy’a post (love you too Andy
).
Well take care Ralph, HotAndy and all bloggies here!
