I do bid you to forgive me... But my lack of posting has been due to the fact that I... I... I’ve been away! Not ‘away’ like ‘in the slammer’ but ‘away’ like ‘on a holiday, man’. Went to Waratah Bay near Wilson’s Prom with Brenton and it was a really great trip. Stayed in an A-frame house and managed to walk into the roof a couple of times (because technically the walls and the roof are the same thing right? Unless you’d only call the top point of the A the roof but that would silly and make it less possible to say things like “I managed to walk into the roof a couple times”). Got there with the help of Karen (my GPS device who mispronounces words and gets a little confused on the more rural highways – either that or she really doesn’t like us and would have us plunge headfirst down the sides of mountains where she “thought” there were roads... I think she just has a sense of humour though).
Wilson’s Prom was really beautiful. We took the track to the top of Mount Oberon and the views were really stunning – I even managed to take my eyes off Brenton for a couple of seconds. :) Anyway, we took lots of photos (of which he’s not allowed to delete any...) and I won’t be forgetting any of it at least until dementia sets in.
This coming Sunday I’m going to Queensland with my family, and get back on Thursday. So there may be a lapse in blogging again. Although I will be taking my laptop so it could be a good time for some writing to take place. And theme-parking. :) We’ll see!
Oh and this Friday (a mere two months and one day since my birthday) is my 21st. Reports on this celebration may be vague... So be there if you want more accurate details. :)
Dale.

Waratah Bay is amazing, we used to have a house in Walkerville on Waratah Bay. Reallllyyy cold this time of year though, so I think you're crazy. And...in that area, the only place to eat is the local watering hole. Quality is compromised with the truckloads of booze they provide.
Anyhoo, glad to see you're living the high life!
Hmmm, maybe you're right about Karen... like in those movies where robots and computers try to wipe us all out. It's begun! Ok, it's not exactly terminator - but that would've been too predictable.
Anywho, looking forward to friday! (I do love the weekend... oh yeah and your birthday thing.) :p
Promontory is a silly word and I think I would've shortened it twice too. Just look at all the o's you have to remember! Hope you enjoy the queeniest of states this coming Sunday. Give me a call/msg if you think you'd like to be super mad cool friends for a day (when you're not laptop blogging or theme parking).
Sounds beautiful, (and awwww, that's mushy!!). Quite right about walking into the roofs also, it's quite possible in a-frame houses (they are sooo late 60's!). I'm gonna build one once I marry that Swedish princess I've been courting. (Honestly I don't know where that came from.. o_O) Rock on I say!
Jimzip :D
