So it is the first of July today.  It is the funny month named after Julius Caesar.  Honoring a man who changed our entire history to suit the purposes of one lot of people only.  I have to say that even though I can clearly see through this, they were very successful in the carrying out of this fiendish systematic control of the people of the entire world.  I was taught that if you can control just 25% you have control over the others by default.  Interesting as this is what is happening to us and they employ many tactics to do this

We are all in this together and we are peering through the fence and seeing the blatant injustices.

 Today is a new month and with this comes the beginning of the new financial year and the instigation of the very ugly Carbon Tax here in Australia.  It is not being accepted very well.  I think this will be the downfall of Julia but I also think the other side have got zero idea on this one as well.  It all seems very much a mess in politics and now they have all gone on a break!  Give me a break instead.  The situation has now spiraled out of control and people are joining together on the many fronts and showing their strength in numbers alone.  We will not be taken as such fools so freely.

You add this to the outrage being felt across the Northern Territory with the Stronger Futures Policy and the people dying in the water just north of Australia in boats sinking and it is very messy indeed.  Back home on the ground here people are assembling in great numbers against the government and are ready to protest and do what it takes to get the message heard around the world where Coal Seam Gas Mining is concerned. 

We have to stand by and witness the blatant use of our natural resources and we are punished as nation for turning on our lights or keeping our elderly warm and comfortable with out the fear of freezing to death .  I am ashamed!  I am also ashamed of our people to a degree that they swallow this rhetoric without question and they do not have a heart for the people of this land.  The aboriginal situation is appalling.

I feel there is some serious stuff going on and all of this is a smoke screen covering something. What the something is though has not revealed itself to me yet.  I will keep reading between the lines and hopefully I will see this before its too late. 

I am going to light fires for the kettle and bugger Julia!

One week later

Last Saturday night I was standing in Kata Juta National Park in the Northern Territory. This week I am standing once again in my favorite old East Maitland and I am Groovin the Moo. Doing it hard .. lol No I am feeling very blessed that I loved everyone who was playing and I knew them all and all the music and seeing 360 was pretty funny and the Hilltop Hoods were excellent but really City and Colour were the best and Gettaway Plan were the best to photograph.  Montana and I had a hectic time with all the lines but we put our bag in the cloak room which was a great idea really.

It got really cold around 7.30pm and everyone was lining up for bags after what had been a top day in the great Australian sunshine.  Listening to the best bands around and I even enjoyed Kimbra. I don't much like her but she was brave as it was very cold in her skimpy outfit with cape.
Rosie was a sweet heart and picked us up in the cold after the concert.  We rang her and she was there to pick us up on the corner near the service station.  We went home for  coffee.
