So, I've been a bit busy of late. Things are starting to stabilise though, in that I have a schedule, a routine, and can actually start planning to spend leisure time on certain things. These include:

SOLO. I'm afraid I've been neglecting SOLO for a while, and haven’t yet reviewed the last podcast. Briefly: I love it! Having played it for my friend, boarder & business partner, his response a grin, and “why isn’t this on the 6 o’clock news?!?!?” My answer: I’m sure the SOLO exec is working on it The content is excellent, and the quality of the production & audio has improved no end (due I’m sure in no small part to my equipment & office having nothing to do with the recording any more )

I also should mention that I haven’t forgotten my promise to Lindsay to sit down & listen to that recording of Nessun Dorma, with his notes in hand. Not to mention the long-awaited (by at least two people) summary of where I’m at with thinking about politics, philosophy, etc. All of this amounts to a commitment to post at least one serious story / blog / podcast to SOLO per week for the foreseeable future.

Flying. That’s been in a state of temporary hiatus (much to Lindsay’s joy I’m sure) for the last few weeks, but my next lesson is booked in for Saturday 15^th - stalling, in a Cessna 150 Aerobat this time (a change from the Evektor Sporstar I’ve been training in).

AMOK! I was going to start training in this regularly, but that’s unrealistic at the moment. So I’m going to have a go at organising another seminar (like this one I organised in Auckland), again inviting local friends & colleagues (any Melbourne-based SOLOists?). Details will be posted on my blog as I have them.

Weights. Three nights a week I’ll be hitting the weights with Armin, trying to get myself into better shape (preferably, the same shape I left Auckland in).

Stay tuned for the next exciting instalment
