So I finally think I've worked it out...

 

Those that know me will know that I'm a sucker for a short haired brunet, and I finally think I know why.

 

I finally moved into the new place in Acland St in St Kilda (the cenre of the known universe), and after an impromptu celebration at The Espy, crawled home and unpacked the cd collection. While microwaving a late dinner watching a U2 gig on TV, I turned the sound down and put on an old Lisa Stansfield album called 'Affection'. What a rush - so many memories came back, including the reason I fell in love with electronica in the first place!!

 

Those that have heard me mix will know my passion for a solid non poppy bullshit female vocal. Those that know me well will also know my penchant, neigh unhealthy destructive addiction, for serious womanly brunets... And I think Ms Stansfield is the cause of that! Such awesome soulful tunes and such good old West Coast Oz memories!

 

For those of you that have no idea what I'm on about, check out;

 

 

For those that do, just nod knowingly....... and if you ever in Oz Ms Stansfield, I have a fridge full of the finest and a pair of 1200's, a DJM300 and a deep desire to chat and find out just what's in your record bag....

 

You may not be a lady, but your all woman... Thank God, Allah, Buddah and Kharma for that.

 

Too much said!

 

S.

Apologies for it being such a long time since the last update. Things have been busy, what with a 4 day work trip to the (lack of) snow at Mount Hotham and busy weeks at work. On the upside I'm finally moving back to my beloved St Kilda to a cool little place on Acland St. I've popped some photo's up of the new place - hopefully it will look a whole heap better once my furniture finally gets here from Perth

 

Also forgot, was a guest of Ford at the recent Rally of Melbourne...Nowhere near as much fun as competing, but if you're stuck watching a rally being fed and watered by a manufacturer is the way to go - once again check the pics!!

 

More later

 

 

Just back from the limited snow at Mt Baw Baw. First time back on a snowboard for 2 years, and event though the snow wasn't the best, I still had a ball. Big thanks to JB for organising it way way back in May. Enjoy the photo's!

Woooohooo! Yes I bought a bike, and yes it's the one in the photo's. Had it about two weeks now and can't stop riding in. This has also added to my complete hatred of people who drive white Toyota Landcruiser Diesels. If you don't know how to drive get off the fucking road - don't by 2500kg of unguided black smoke belching 4wd lard..Yes one has tried to kill me already. Anyways, more later. Have to sleep sometime

Ok its been a while since I updated my blog. A fair bit has happened, but the main things are:

 

1. I got a job!

 

I'm the In-House Sales Manager for Oakley South Pacific - and loving it! Just getting up to speed with what I'm supposed to be doing and how to do it. You know, just the usual new job jitters and having to understand a completely new business model and organisational structure. Thank got they're on SAP, so I have some comfort level there.

 

2. I got my motorcycle learners in Victoria

 

A two day course at H.A.R.T in Victoria and I'm legal to ride up to 250cc for the next 12 months. Next month it's off bike shopping to see if I can't find myself a decent GPX250 or ZZR250.

 

More later....
