It was easier flying backwards in time – because the UK is a familiar place, and much as I loathe its weather at least it’s a climate I understand. The UK has set things for me to do, places to go, people to see – a life and a niche, and some semblance of structure [...]

We were both highly gratified to discover that although Lynne:s baggage appears to have grown lighter by three kilos and mine gained weight while we were in Australia, even including the two didgeridoos (which are nearly as tall as we are) we were still within weight allowances. Wooo Hoooo.
We:re in Japan again where I am [...]

Several years ago, in February of 2000 I met a man called Jack who I proceeded to fall into love and into bed with- but not in that order.

Last entry from Oz I think, as tomorrow we leave.

Of course, I realise that it’s not perfect. For [...]

We’re back in Sydney again, and aside from my knee which is worse for wear and the intermittent mozzie bites,we have been having a wonderful time. So wonderful in fact that we stayed there much longer than intended and nearly missed the only bus to Sydney.
The Aussie accent is contagious – I can feel it [...]

in the darkness the
cricket’s song like the touch of
warmer nights with you
in the morning the
snow is blue-shadowed and
tender as kisses
i am in love with
the crook of your jawbone and
the nearness of you
outside my room the
moon sails on
