Today, Saturday 12 May, is moving day. Cal and I shift into our new apartment in Coromandel St in the lovely Wellington suburb of Newtown. We’re in the old maternity hospital, St Helens, so if you are a Wellingtonian of a certain age there is a good chance you will have emerged wailing into life right about where we’ll put the television.
\nTomorrow, Sunday 13 May, we go to Melbourne for a week.
\nYes, this could have been planned slightly better. But. We are coping.

\nWellington Comedy Festival is on. Saw ‘The Hunting of the Snark’ tonight, an adaptation of the Carroll “agony in eight fits” with much of the original wordplay and a bunch more besides. It took a while to get going, the large cast seeming to take about fifteen minutes to settle in, but then it ran well; or perhaps it’s just that the best material comes later on. In any case, there were some wonderful bits. My favourite was the reinvention of Carroll’s poem ‘Jabberwocky’, which isn’t even part of Snark – it’s from Looking Glass. Although it shares with Snark a great deal of Carroll’s delicious invented vocabulary. Neat. Also saw The Improv Divas<\/a>, which was refreshing, funny, sequinny and improvised. A grand night was had, all told.

\nThe Buffy-inspired RPG ‘Slayers East’ is almost at the end of its run, and the penultimate episode was something<\/a> quite<\/a> special<\/a>. Which just serves to really put the pressure on us for the last episode, in a week and a half…
\nAnyway. If you ever wondered I enjoy roleplaying so much, there’s part of your answer.

\nBlogging will, unsurprisingly, be light-to-nonexistent while we’re away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
