Well, it's Tuesday evening and I have decided to write something in my blog because poor little Georgia has sent me an email bemoaning the jet lag that has ruled her life since she returned to Adelaide. Being bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at 4 in the morning is not conducive to much beyond a bit of internet surfing, and she tells me that she checks this site up to 15 times a night waiting for something new (full-well knowing that me adding somehting is a bi-monthly occurance). And seeing as she is this website's most dedicated patron, it is only fair that she gets an entry in her honour.
I thought about writing a suggestion to our Adelaide friends that they call her, but then, as both Georgia and I know, none of them actually read our websites. Ohhh…. Except Nadine. Nadine – please call (email might work even better) Georgia and harass her to catch up. She is a hermit and needs cajoling. Without that, I fear you all might see me before you see her.
So how are things here? Well, boringly the same. I have a bit of a cold at the moment which means that I am coughing up extraordinary quantities of nasties in the morning. Bet you are all glad you read that.
What else? Umm. A few ‘Current Events’ might be a good idea
- I’m attempting to read this year’s Booker Prize winner, John Banville’s ‘The Sea’ but find myself struggling through a slow plot and forcedly-floral sentences.
-Tonight I’m watching the European Cup Final of Villareal versus Aresenal. I’m a bit torn over this one as I hate Aresenal, but it would be good to see and English Team win again. My newly adopted football team – Wigan – has finished in the top half od the league even though this is the first season they have played in the Premiership (for those who don’t understand what this mean, just interpret it as ver, very impressive). And I have just realised that the coach’s name is (oh, Pete – we adopted this team for their delightful name, and it just gets better…) ‘Paul Jewell’ Seriously. That is a ten out of ten name.
-I started to learn the piano.
-Dave bought me the complete Ripping Yarns dvd the other day which is just smashing
-I’m not learning the piano. That was a lie.
Dear god I’m struggling here. I promise that very soon I’m going to have something very interesting happen in my life, and you, dear world of the web, will be the FIRST to know.
Over and out.
Nadine. Email. Georgia. Now.

I do have a life, I swear I do... I only read your blog everyday out of pure concern for your happiness. Well you are too late my friend with the Georgia stuff! I have alread emailed, texted and attended her welcome back BBQ and drinks which was a brilliant afternoon.
I'm still recovering from laughing at the thought of you playing the piano... please take it up, nothing would make me happier (as she wipes the tear from her eye)
