Kylie Minogue - Got To Be Certain (extended remix)

here is video of a remix of the kylie song featuring st kilda pier, luna park, walking along the banks of the yarra river and dancing on the rooftop of a melbourne tower. Is it the KPMG building? I'm not sure...

eureka

yesterday we went up the eureka tower, the largest residential tower in the southern hemisphere, or something like that. the observation deck is on the 88th floor, and the lift takes 40 seconds, travelling faster than a sprinting athlete and making my ears go funny.

the views are good, we could just about see our house, but the internal corridors are dark narrow and gloomy, and i felt a bit freaked when i overheard someone else talking saying that the twin towers were 110 storeys - i started looking around for the emergency stairs and couldnt see any, eek. in a way i was relieved to get back down to earth.

see http://www.eurekatower.com.au/main.cfm to see the offical website (and maybe buy an apartment at the top for $8 million!)

spring is in the air

i am teaching a student at work this week that was on one of my courses about a year ago. they asked me if i am still doing the radio show - i said yep, the spring season of 'not the real mccoy' starts this coming saturday, and explained that we had had the winter season off for a break.

she also asked "have you been preparing much material for the new show?", and I was pleased to be able to say yes (for once!)
