Rain on my parade

Bastards up there somewhere though it would be funny to lower the temperture 10degrees. And make it rain on me.

Get off yr arts

Went to the Uralla Arts festival with L&D. Get off your arts was the festival motto. Had a very drunken funny time while listening to a scottish singer sing protest songs to a small young dancing crowd. It was too cold to sit, so we jumped about with best of them.

Tent

I should have packed the tent. But no, i thought. Who'd be holidaying in April? Won't there be all those cheap places stay?

live and learn.

Wilbert has joined the road trip of 1

News from the roadtrip for one:

• i can't drive and read a roadmap


• i can't drive and roll a smoke


• i have also found that good coffee is hard to find


• and when i'm over driving, i'll pay whatever they want for a bed


• that crime novels are very hard to find in central coast opshops


• but they have plently of baby clothes.

So i've brought myself a friend (i've heard that's what people in the know, do, you know) and his name is Wilfred. He's a very cheeky monkey. He's going to pose, without complaints. Note: Master Woss is alive and well (and online even) in Hanoi! Ad there's a storm coming (here, not there).

Elvis has left the building

I got him to the airport. With passport, bag, ticket and Visa Card. And laptop. My task is complete.

An hour later I get a text from R - he's just been paged by airport security. He'd left his visa card at duty-free! He'll be flying out in about 30mins. With all his stuff. Hopefully. And then he'll be in the somewhat capable care of Nick, who will remember to pick him up at the airport. *she crosses her fingers again

i'm off now to my own road trip for 1, and i've just brought 4 albums to keep me amused

1. Duffy (like Dusty, only younger, and english)
2. Beginners guide to Bollywood music (over 3 hours of hits!)
3. Sleepy jackson (everyone says it's good)
4. Best of Steely Dan (ricky don't lose my number...)
