Love Lust and Lies

Hey you,
Sounds like my life story but alas it is the life story of 3 other woman. Tonight I went to the world premier of a film by Gillian Armstrong. It was a very interesting film. It was a follow up to a documentary filmed in 1976 following the lives of three 14 year old girls. I have not seen any of the 7 Up film but understand it is a similar premise. The film itself was interesting. Even more so because the director and the people staring in the film were all in the audience. They even had a question and answer session afterwards. As the Aussies would say "Brilliant." It was all well done. Now so am I. I have been fighting off a cold and it is dark at 5:30 now. Can someone send me some sunshine? Winter solstice anyone?
G'day eh.

  1. And here we are marvelling that there was still light to see the deer on the side of the highway on the way home from the airport yesterday at 8:30 pm! (We saw four deer, by the way - none of them seemed tempted to run up on the highway as we drove by!)

    I'm not sure how it would bottle up, but we could try to get some in a container!

    Soon the days will get longer (June 21st will be here before you know it - heavens knows May 15th has arrived unexpectedly!)

    Take care. Jane
