The only other news is that today I found out - via the minutes of a meeting - that my substantive position is to be filled by a casual teacher "for the foreseeable future". That's a new one on me - I thought I was on sick leave, not dead. I appreciate the "heads-up" guys. Nice one.

A brand new era?

The state elections are over, a new government will sit at Macquarie Street, complete with documented promises of what will be and won't be happening during their administration. The state's media are full of news from the last 24 hours, and promises unwrapped overnight like the Christmases of our childhoods. But there's particularly pertinent correspondence dated 23rd October 2007.

I wonder if our new premier is still reading his Facebook Blog?
