    Dingo, my brother just moved to Bowral! He bought the Kookabar Café. I've only been up to see it once, but it looks like a nice café, and it's a really pretty town. Incidentally, he's also a Luthier, and builds violins from his house.

    Waz, you're not wrong. You should see the colour here at the minute - our backyard is blanketed in leaves of the most intense yellow. It's one thing I would really miss if we ever shift out of Canberra.

    Unrelated, but for any of you guys who live in Canberra (particularly anyone with kids), I'm giving an engraving/printing demonstration at Megalo Print Studio on Saturday (2pm). Printing a small engraving block on a beautiful old Albion press, which used to be owned by the NSW Government. It's a neat place to check out, and kids always love the old machinery. It's in the same building as the Bus Depot Markets, but in the long skinny bit that fronts the street, so close to good coffee and lunch. Anyway, it'd be nice to meet any of you who are out and about!

    I loved that market, had a wonderful time down there when last in Canberra.
