Life is drifting along like a plague of jellyfish. Cheri is working madly at her Latin degree. Latin texts are stuck up all over the house, tables are laden with incomprehensible tomes. It has been school holidays which means most of the stuff our boys do is not on at the moment. So Evan has been surfing and 'hanging out' ...man. Em has been disabling donkeys with his talking. That boy sure can talk.

Jimmy had his fifth birthday last week. He threw a party down at the Jetty foreshores. A fabulous cake as you can see. I'm hoping to meet up with Jimmy today to make a Sonic Screwdriver. Emrys and I made a Berrocca torchy thing last week for practice.

Our pal John Lee has been coming round for lots of visits recently. His book of poetry is coming along. Attached is a picture of John and Cheri in the kitchen. Cheri is holding my beloved twenty buck uke.

Meanwhile I keep myself busy; drawing onions, reading a Vincent VG bio, playing my uke badly, snorkelling and tittering inanely at stupid websites. Ah well... work on Tuesday.
