Feeling a little bored, bashing out notes for whatever piece we were singing – I think the Morley madrigal “Sing we and chant it” – I then sat back as the choir sang it through unaccompanied. Most people had their heads intently buried in the music, […] |
| you know those comedies that aren’t actually funny…this isn’t one of them | February 22, 2009 | I haven’t been to the actual movies, as in buy and ticket and go to the theatre for a long time.

| Monday: thinking about the meaning of life | February 9, 2009 | The terrible devastation and loss of life in the bushfires is dreadful to say the least. To comment on it in any meaningful way seems impossible while the event is still unfolding. And I think I’ll leave that to others more knowledgeable than I.
