I'd love to come, but by the time I get there it will be over.
The joys of working outside the CBD.

Might I add another idea? Write, preferably by hand, a letter to you local member politely protesting the Govt's attitude to Assange and Wikileaks, and idicating your support for freedom of speech. They take much more notice of hand written letters than typed ones.

Slightly scary reports in the media - you OK?

'Course I am: the only thing beaten up was the story. Full eye witness report with photos tomorrow. Right now I'm knackered.

Thanks for asking!
