Oh I can't stop talking about Master Chef. ... Yawn. Am now completely enthralled, along with the other 20% of our nation.
Why the hell is Jimmy still there? He is the annoying Mr Average - rissoles, ice-cream served in a saucer (???), evil streak to bring comrades down .. just an all round pain in the ass. Even bigger pain now that he is down to the serious end of the competition. Be gone with your turmeric!

Quite settled into the jive of compound life this week. Loving this burst of breezy dry summery days and the chance to go easy on the air con. Emerald is loving birds and trees, and often stares wistfully out the window with her hand delicately dangling somewhere mid air ... before she then proclaims "bird". I have raised a flower child! Chuffed.

Political situation here is completely nuts. Waiting for parliament to be dissolved any day ... but the big cheese keeps on keeping on. Meetings under trees, protest marches, lots of press coverage, heavy handed hard core question time yesterday ... but as far as I know there is still a government.

Oh, and there was another earthquake. Hmm ... a lot of rumbles in the jungle over last few days.
