		<description><![CDATA[Mr Whisnant - please do.&#160; Please do spend the next couple of years shut away in a room writing a book so we don't have to listen to the drivel that seems to dribble down your chin every time you open that ghastly mouth of yours.&#160; And when you've finished, please may I have a copy so I can relieve myself upon it and then burn it without even bothering to open the damn thing - which is just slightly better than I'm sure it would deserve.

		<description><![CDATA[Just over 3 weeks ago, with Sheldon (our ever increasingly clapped out VW) packed to the gunwales, the boy and I drove off into the sunset in search of a new life in Paradise Square, Oxford.  After only 3 weeks, with the interruption of Glastonbury in the midst,  and 3 days of the week spent in the suburban limbo of Uxbridge, I can't say I feel like much of a local yet, but it certainly feels cool to be discovering somewhere new.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the downsides I have noted about living in a big city is the amount of planning required.  I may be wearing the rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia, but my memories of life in New Zealand didn’t involve vast quantities of coordination, planning and booking ahead.  As I recall it, there was a lot of last minute, ‘what are you doing tonight?’ calls, and many occasions of throwing stuff in the car on a Friday and driving somewhere when the weather was looking good for the weekend.

		<description><![CDATA[The title of ‘best thing’ can be an ephemeral one.  I can recall bestowing this title upon such random (and frankly useless) objects such as a fab faux 70s plastic beaded curtain that I bought from iko iko on k rd about 10 years ago (looked great with my orange op-shop curtains), and a netball-sized mirror ball purchased from the Thursday markets at Auckland University (anyone remember those awful Hannibal Lecter tees with the ‘tastes like chicken’ slogan?).

		<description><![CDATA[The only time I’d been to an auction previously was when my older brother got fleeced for a beat-up old Honda Civic. He went $500 over his maximum in the heat of the bidding, and explained this to his (now ex-) wife by saying – “I was just trying to push him up”.
