well I'm not too good at keeping up this blog, but I could say that's because I'm too busy... have been trying my hand at recording fringe reviews for Radio Adelaide, which is totally new and has nothing to do with what Black Dog considers is my real job, i.e. carving her image in blocks of wood and taking her for walks by the sea. She was also highly insulted when I forsook her company for three nights and spent them shipkeeping on the Endeavour replica in Port Adelaide. A wonderful experience, it's a shame they don't let dogs on board. This is what part of her (the ship) looks like in the dark.

No, I didn't have to climb the rigging, but I had my first experience of sleeping in a hammock, and did reasonably well.
