J G S HABITAT #6

"Waiter! There's a girl in my cake"

I thought I'd end this first cycle of J G S Habitat with a random shot of me and my good friend Alison Manifold. It's a bit of an oldie of us but it gave me a laugh when I came across it and thought it post-worthy :-) Ali is a former colleague of mine from the SOH but we go way back before then as she constantly reminds me that I rejected her when she auditioned for me once  :-) But whilst that role may not have been for her on that occasion, I certainly gave her the role of Friend without any need to audition :-) Not only that, we have remained close even after leaving the SOH and I was very fortunate to watch her perform in recital earlier this year and listen to her beautiful classical voice. Ali was also the inspiration for one of the principal characters in my book :-)

As for the week that was, well it has been quite a learning curve for me and certainly not a very ordinary week!

There are a lot of changes afoot and as they are not yet finalised I cannot give all the juicy details just yet, but you will be the first to know when I can :-)

But the weekend itself was a bit of a downer as the Lions flogged the Wallabies and the Knights downed the Bulldogs so if it weren't for my friends rallying around me I would have probably swallowed draino or ate my weight in chocolate.

(*Please note I refer to the previous weekend - my blogs are late sorry!)

When Monday rolled around it was time to make some serious decisions and one was to end my lease and put my apartment back on the rental market. An inspection has been set for Saturday and I have been frantically cleaning and hiding all my valuables. :-) This is a shot of my apartment I took at Christmas last year.


That was the main focus of the week plus I did work on my book for a bit and hung out with my friends and the gym a lot too.

Apart from that, I will just simply have to leave you in suspense until next week when I am hoping to reveal some more interesting details :-)
