Moving caves?

Phew! What a day. Wednesday is when the Bleeding Edge column has to be filed, but today ICE TV's Peter Vogel was in town for a rare visit, so we also scheduled a lunch with him.

And in the afternoon we had to turn up to inspect a possible new home for the Bleeding Edge cave - a former home for wayward women, so it has great potential - which made things even tighter.

As it happened, we were half an hour late at Abbotsford. And when we pulled out the laptop to test the iBurst link, we discovered the battery was flat. The agents say ADSL is available, and there is an iBurst antenna at Collingwood, so it's probably fine. We might ride the bike over on the weekend to check that, and also see how long it would take to commute on two wheels.

While there are many advantages to having one's cave/office in one's home, the big drawback is that there's a temptation to just slip ijn and do a little bit of work ... and emerge a few hours later.

Politicians should never assume that a journalist is a friend. The relationships you want to build up, Every journalist wants to break another Watergate, and thinks you say in private become parliament. You have to take a shield.

your moving into an old church to live and work?

Not a church. A convent. And only for work. And I'm not sure whether it's going to happen yet.

Is the last para a quote or non-sequitur? Looks remarkably like wise words of advice from our beloved ex-premier on TV last night.....
