I'm on the road to the delightful and beautiful global city of Sydney. I will post tomorrow if I have the time. As my days are loaded up with work from the time I arrive early in th emorning so I will have little time to sample the delights of an "urban paradise"; or walk the laid back streets of Cronulla to see why the beach needed defending from the Lebanese-Australians.
Meanwhile a definition of parliamentary politics:
Matt Golding
Politics as it is framed by the media. The media loves the politics of leadership and dislikes the politics of policy. It's attracted by the blood and guts, treachery, obsesssion and death of the struggle of leadersship. That is what politics as power is about in the media.

I would kill for the urky felling of having the undertow plaster a lump of seaweed against my leg at Maroubra Beach.
I am land-bound here and the Atlantic can't hold a candle to the Pacific. Enjoy Sydney.
