• Sydney time: 10.30am Wednesday

  
  (‘Mangy pets’ from Mucha Lucha)

  When we first arrived in Sydney it was sunny and warm, but the last couple of days have been cold, raining and miserable. Now both of us have caught some sort of flu/cold bug… Uuggh. We would go and see The Incredibles to cheer ourselves up, but it doesn’t launch here until December.

  What we’ve been up to:

  • catching up with all our friends in Sydney
  • ripping music cds
  • saving files from studio computers onto cds to take to L.A.
  • scanning reference images from books, e.g. -

  
  still from ‘Cowboy Jimmy’ (Zagreb Films)
  We really want to see this. But where???

  On Saturday, Eddie will be flying back to L.A. and Sunday I am off to KL, Malaysia to spend a couple of days with my family.
