Travelling north
A biting southerly wind drags the leaves from the plane trees on LaTrobe Street. Current Melbourne temperature: 12C.
So how happy am I to receive an invitation to attend a book launch in Darwin next Friday? To be reminded that there are people in Australia right now strolling about in t-shirts and sandals. Who are not wrapped in coats and scarves? Who are not chugging back the Vitamin C? Who are, in fact, soaking in Vitamin D?
Thanks, Barry Jonsberg. Have a great day.

Ironbark, Barry Jonsberg’s new novel, is launched at Absolutely Books, Darwin from 4.30pm.
Sigh…
