(no subject)

I so want to go to Antartica. I once had the right qualifications to take up a job there - except one needs good health to work in Antarctica. Ever since then I've longed and yearned and dreamed.

If I can't go (and body was more robust then that it is now, and things like this require good health) then maybe one of my friends can. This Fellowship is mainly for Australian writers and artists, but if you look down the bottom of the page, there is a loophole of possibility for some others.

One day I shall be able to spend solid time on an ice-breaker (as opposed to the half hour I had as a child) and to travel to the distant south.

I'm anxiously awaiting the last of the recipe tests, because I'm putting the next stage of the menu (so the chef can cost the whole thing) together on Saturday. Saturday!
