    what did you say?

    My dream came true today.Well really it was beyond my wildest dreams. I waited at the Versace yesterday in the pouring rain. Being a gardener I'd never complain about that. It did mean that at 2 pm they announced U2 would not be coming out of the hotel to greet the fans. I didn't mind as I...

    The Impossible Music Festival

    I'm not sure of the spelling. I listened to Rhett Hutchence being interviewed on the radio yesterday. He has just written and published a book with that title. For anyone who is a Michael Hutchence fan it should be an interesting read. I'm looking forward to it. I think it is mostly about...

    WHAT A GAME!!! My son's Under 16 soccer team played in the Clarence Soccer Association's semi-final last night. It was top quality football. The score was nil all at full time. A winner had to be decided on the night, so we went into 20 minutes extra golden goal time. THE BEARS scored a...

    The Corporation...at last

    Last night I heard a review of a documentary that has been made by a young Canadian woman. It is called "The Corporation". The Australian reviewer said it made her feel sick, all that information being delivered in 3 hours, but they gave it a great recommendation as an important piece to see...

    Has anybody seen the "Queen It's a Kind of Magic" show?

    I saw an ad in the newspaper at my mother's house for this show. It is on at a good venue about 2 hours drive from where I live. I am very tempted because I absolutely adore Queen. But I would really hate to see a show that was sub-standard and didn't do the songs justice. It says in the ad "...

    Aussie's eh? We've come up with some brilliant ideas over the years. I like the latest invention that is being discussed.
