We’ve been “camping” this weekend down in Eucumbene- a locality rather than a town- about 40mins south west of Cooma in the snowy mountains of NSW. But don’t quote me on the “west” bit- I’ve never been great wi…

In the Wild
I’m going camping this weekend. Ok, It’s not strictly camping per se- there are no tents or toilet rolls on a spade. There is, however, outdoor fires, a cabin in the middle of not a lot, wild animals (sure kangaroos and wombats), sleeping bags and …
Something about a swimmer, the Olympics and the tricks Mercury plays
This Olympics, so far, has been surprising not so much because of who has won, but more for who has not. Mercury, the Trickster, has absolutely been having a laugh. There have been errors in the commentary, errors in flags, errors in spelling and that&…
Sense and Sensibility
There’s a scene in Emma Thompsons’ Sense and Sensibility where Willoughby (played by Greg Wise) and Marianne (Kate Winslet) are swapping Shakespeare sonnets- as you do when a supremely hot man has just rescued from a watery fall down a hill by thro…

The Law According to Jo…and something about Mercury being Retrograde
I don’t think Kristen Stewart has an astrologer on retainer. If she did, she probably would have not chosen to make the statement she did today about cheating on RPatz. Not that I particularly care. Just saying. Hashtag. Although as always, I feel so…

in numbers too big to ignore…sorry, wrong song. Anyways, here is my latest post for Your Career & the Cosmos…
How to Build a House
I learned a lot because of the Brisbane floods last year. I learned a lot about electricity- how it works, how the wires act like capillaries and the different names for light types. I learned about generators, I learned about lift curtains (and how to…
