We will be out of action for about a week, as we head off on a road-trip through central NSW shortly.
Many a winter's weather and sleet/snow on roads are awaiting.......
If we can get internet access, will post some photos for the duration of the trip.

Home of Quality Cinema
How could I have forgotten the Home of Quality Cinema that is Dendy.
Someone at work has a double pass for tomorrow night's advance screening of some French movie I've forgotten the name of already.
MovienamesIcan'tpronounce aside, I do remember myself saying that I was going to commit myself to see more cultured, art-house, non-mainstream movies at Dendy.
The last one I saw was Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress in 2004.
Must find an opportunity to break this drought.

The Doc is in.......
*Note- does not have any personal references*
Just in a therapist type of mood. Maybe because the Simpsons episode that was on TV whilst eating dinner was one where Bart goes to see a psychologist, after he scares his classmates with this story about some eerie person that attacks people and eats their brains. (also the Sound of Music episode)
I saw an advertisement on SBS I think recently, about a new TV doco called 'Divorce Stories'.
As the title indicates, it is a doco comprising of a number of couples that have had relationship problems, stopped loving their respective partner, and have taken the road to divorce because of it.
Some excerpts of the doco showed couples saying "They just don't love each other anymore", "He/She has decided to take this certain road, and I just don't want to follow", "It's just too hard to live with them cause they don't change their ways", and 'We still want to be and remain friends, but just don't want to be married anymore."
I've seen too many clients in the 6 years doing my profession who have chosen to divorce or have a trial/mutual/amicable separation. Some that you have worked closely with for a number of years and then suddenly say they are heading down this path still shocks me.
To think that the view in society nowadays is to see something you want, you have to do what it takes (even going into debt in some cases) to get what you want, and once you've had your fun it just gets thrown away, and you start searching for something else. It really is very sad to see some relationships head down this path too.

a little bit of cheer
Got a couple of surprises recently:
A piece of yellow metal chain
A "Complete Book of Fishing Baits and Rigs"
A yabby pump
A small glass bowl with some water and rocks in it
A little, colourful red Betta named "Gus"
I'm getting a hunch.....maybe they want me to go catch some fish, and use Gus as bait?
Poor little Gus.....
