I’m off to sunny Queens­land for my annual pil­grim­age to revel in the joy of music, sun and friends at the Wood­ford Folk Festival.

We’re head­ing up the centre of the NSW through Parkes and Moree which is a route I haven’t done before… should be interesting.

I didn’t get {ariel flux} up and run­ning in time due to the peace fest­ival, but I may still post gig reviews in there for test­ing pur­poses. I’ll update here from time to time (there was a net café tent there last year and prob­ably will be again) but I’ll be unlikely to read e‑mail or read other journ­als till about Janu­ary 4. 

So: Happy New Year every­one! Thank you to every­one who has made my 2005 the year it was, espe­cially my dear, dear friends Christina, Jack, Matt and Daniel – you are so spe­cial to me.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
