after much soul-searching, the rose is moving interstate to finish high school. apparently she found the prep college a little too much of a steep curve and missed her old pals. I hope she's back soon. I'll certainly miss her.

on the other hand, I'm wading thru the various notes and letters concering my daughter's settling into her high school, but dragging a few grade school bad habits with her. time will sift thru all though, as it does. she's found a new pal in a young gal who's doing some fabulous animation work, I'm hoping it'll inspire my gal a bit.

the new aussie guitar album is due for release, I should have info up here in a few days. I have a track on it, along with the cream of the oz rock guitar world (and a couple token kiwis).

been trying to regroup to finish off the blues pirates album, things always seem to derail either chris or myself. usually both.

the pub where I do my sunday ritual finally has a website up, it's www.mertonestate.com.au

and you tube finally has a couple tracks from the show I did with mick fetch. just do a search on my name.
