My super boring journal I would like some more pressed duck.

Mr Twit was good at catching birds.

Ah hoy hoy,

How is everybody? The weather here this weekend was really awesome. It wasn't too cold and it was nice and sunny both days. I went wandering around my new neighbourhood quite a bit. There are many really awesome old buildings. Most of the area is made up of big houses that have been converted into apartments.

I went to the library to get midsomer nights dream and the taming of the shrew so I could read them for my audition. I was finding them a bit boring to get through so I broke into Jane Anns box set of Roald Dahl. I read Matilda, George The Pelly and Me, The Witches and The twits. Roald Dahl is great. The Twits is really funny.

I also watched a fair bit of tv this weekend. I watched the Canadian Figure Skating Championships and Ace Lightning (The kids in ace lightning have gotten really OLD. Chuck looks like hes about 30). By this stage I was hankering for something a little more substantial to watch, so I went to the library and got out 'The Three Amigos'. It was slim pickins. I watched that and also got into Jane Anns dvds. I watched Oceans 11, The Matrix and a few episodes of the vicar of dibley. I really need to start work.

As I am sure you'll have realised I did very little this weekend. Feel free to pepper up the journal a bit with whatever you want. Hopefully next time I wont seem so boring. Miss you all and hope that you are well.

Hey Sue, it i nice that you can relax just like you were home on the other side of the world. Mum and Dad have gone to Pemberton, as you know, but before they left mum rang me to ask me to come over so she could give me 'DETAILED instructions about how to feed the cat!!!' I went there and both Ebony and I had to listen for 20mins about how to open the cat food, how to mix in the dry and the wet catfood with a SPOON and where to put the food. It was lucky that Ebony took notes otherwise where would we be. The cat has been successfully fed for two days (by Ebony, not really sure why I needed to endure Mum's cat feeding lecture, maybe incase something happened to Ebony the precious cat would be sure to be fed in the specified manner). Dad's craxy friend Dave has to feed the cat one day and he didn't have to have a lecture, but he got a detailed note. Wow my life is interesting isn't it? Bye for now, Love Helen

DOES THE FUN EVER STOP? The answer to that is 'no it fricken doesn't'. Dad's car caught fire in Bussellton, for real, there was a fuel leak. They are all ok - physically - The fire brigade had to come and everything. You can imagine how happy, calm and friendly Dad was when he rang me to come get them. I have to hire a car to go and pick them up, they wanted to come back in my echo but that would have only worked if they planned to leave half of their belongings behind and two of them rollerskated behind the car. Dad's other plan was for me to go and get him so he could come back with me and get another of his highly unreliable cars and drive it to Bussellton to pick up Mum and Daniel - HUH? - Dad is going to try and GIVE his car - THAT HE GOT FOR FREE - to a wreckers in Bussellton. Dad should get a better car, one that he didn't get for free... Though that is just my opinion I will no doubt bring news of more hijinx very very soon - Love Helen

Sue, your journal is fantastic as ever, but Helen's comments are absolutely HILARIOUS! I had to stop myself from laughing out loud in the middle of this Internet cafe. Bring on more hijinx. I seriously thought about doing a Top Ten List of Ways To Feed A Cat, or Tricks To Do On Rollerskates Behind An Echo, but, well, it IS Sue's Boring Journal.

Factual.
