It's been a week of misplacement (whoa, freudianautocorrect!) that should read mid-placement assessments, late nights at the hospital, household "lock ins" & lock outs, hanging with Exceedingly Decent peoples and listening to a lot The Fugees - BHill Anthem Album.
Thelma & Louise (aka BabyG'n'Nush) hired a car ('lectric blue Lancer) - drove to Silverton - the Hollywood of the Outback. Silverton Tearooms - split an "Outback Snack" 'n' scones, then Quandong Icecream Cones. Mad Max 2 Museum - wild! Adrian & his good woman and their commitment to memorabilia should be applauded. He saw Mad Max 2 - Road Warrior as a kid and it changed his life. So much so he dedicated his life to setting up the museum in Silverton. Sadly you can't take snaps in the museum - but belieb me, the walls were covered with the most incredible polaroids from behind the scenes of the film. Emil "Feral Kid" Minty - I need to know where he is now, NOW! Next stop, Silverton Hotel for postcard writing and XXXX Middy Shandies in the outback "ghost town lounge." The Silverton Hotel "Test" aced and we became lifetime members of the Hotel. Brief detour to Mundi Mundi plains for some plein-air dancing, then 150kms to Menindee... with the promise of Afternoon Tea in a converted Train Cafe run by the high school's Year Nine Homescience Schtudents. And a dip in the French Riviera of the Bush. Yessssss.
