Auld lang wotsit

That time of the year again, when all the tv channels look back at the year and we all say “ooh, I forgot that happened” or “oh goodness, did xx die?!”. Or, in some cases, “blimey, is xx still alive?!”.

And this year the reminiscing is going to be even worse as it’s the end of the decade.

However, 2009 is feeling pretty good coming from the end of the most successful Melbourne Writers Festival ever, and with the sun shining, and the holidays upon us. Birds are singing outside my window, children are walking past chattering happily, and evil Santa is yet to make his appearance.

Hope you all have a great break, eat too much, drink too much and enjoy lying down all boxing day watching the test. Bliss. .
