Your first question was "Where am I?" so apparently you've figured that much out.

Well you know Australia is moving northwards. And now they are changing the coordinates, too.

So, I suppose a bit of navigational confusion is perfectly understandable.


I think that might explain poor Monday's confused sate of mind - he's been moved without him knowing.....

I'll just stay on the top of this mountain in the bush thanks Vic (wilderness is just a 15min walk from here anyway). ;-)

If I'm lucky in a few years, one way or another, I'm hoping to leave the wilderness behind, but then I've lived here since 2004. I'd rather live in a more Civilized area...
