Even though it was Boxing Day here (all day), and cricket season, thanks a
bundle for all that and the same to you (with bells on). And don't take this
the wrong way, but maybe start thinking about a bit of a time-out for
yourself big fella.

'Rabbit-proof Fence' has been in cinemas here for months ... won a stack of
awards, is already on academic curricula (and is highly recommended, along
with the wonderful 'Beneath Clouds': dir. Ivan Sen, 2002,

). ... So I guess I'll rent out 'Amistad', 'Dances with Wolves' (which I've
never seen, believe it or not, but re. which see _M&D_ 651.1, 663.5 &c), or
mebbe that '1000 Nations' doco on video instead.
