giving you the tour!

Sitting down on the left is Sal, on the right is Jeremy. Jeremy shouts even when the presses aren't running.


This is where they develop the films which are then made into print plates.


Some films



The dictionary. When the publisher was here he kept waddling out of the editors office, slowly adjusting his trousers, checking a word and then slowly walking back in. I don't think he actually did anything at all apart from that while he was here.


ps - apparently he was once discovered no a saturday afternoon at his desk with a female intern under it!


The shelves have very old books


They keep an archive of the papers for a year


then clip out one of every article and put them in the office library


My desk - the pile of newspapers is because I just did my expenses. Someone used to use that typewriter right here..


Anyway, there's no-one here now and there's a few darker rooms - including the dark room - that I wish I could show you around.. X

seeing how much closer we could get to this bunny


It took about five minutes to get this close. We were locked in a battle of wills but he broke first soon after this, running into the road and nearly under a car! I would have felt awful.

As it is this is how I feel: 


Tired, waiting to hear from errant travel agent and wanting you.

ps - sign me up for a boat license, I wanna go for a whole night out on the water, do you think that's possible? 

By the way that photo further down, from yesterday is really rare because it's Obama's garden..

PS we have to get our boat licences so we can cause some trouble on the water! xx

chilling out on this rooftop bar with you



















and making the most of the lovely astro turf!

checking out random street art in the laneways



















and trying to figure out what it all means...
