highly enjoyable reading my mate Rob's diary of his new life in Australia he has also just moved from London half way, (or actually most of the way in his case), across the world
well Rob took his wife Maria for a trip into the Australian wilderness & ended up being pursued everywhere he went by the not inconsequential Huntsman spider
poor old Rob & Maria - i wouldn't want to find one of those under my bed at night, which is exactly what they did on seemingly every place they stayed
to make Rob feel better when he reads this, i can happily inform him that there are absolutely no big spiders in this part of the Rocky Mountains - nor are there any snakes to really worry about
all we have are Grizzly Bears, Cougars, Wolves and the maddest of the lot according to all the guidebooks & knowledgable locals - the rutting elks who can do unimaginable things with those horns
the most danger you were in from wildlife back in London, was probably being nibbled by a fox, nipped by a rat or catching something from those disgusting pigeons
well big news in these parts is the return of the snow, although the huge dumpster of a snowstorm that threatened never delivered, still once again, as Pete Doherty might say - it sure is great to see all that white stuff lying about
my tunes of the day on the radio player come from Canadian, The High Dials - coming at you out of Winnipeg they play what you might call Mod Soul - i think they are a mighty fine band & i urge you to check out Rainbow Quartz their record label, which promotes all manner of tuneful, retro bands
The High Dials - Desiderata
The High Dials - My Heart is Black
