I'll be spending two weeks in the Netherlands, so hope to see as many of my friends there as possible! After that, I'll be in the U.S for another month.

Back in Europe, specifically Amsterdam and Utrecht, for ISMIR 2010 and of course, to hang out with all my Amsterdam friends! Which kind soul wants to put me up for a few days?

After the Easter weekend & Smith family reunion, we caught up with some friends in Perth, celebrated Pete & Dot's birthdays, visited Kalgoorlie in WA, and then headed east for relatively quick visits to Melbourne, Tasmania, and Sydney. Check out our photos. Jill is now back in NYC, and Leigh in Perth for a few more weeks.

Back in the Apple! At the end of May, I'll be heading back to New York for ICMC 2010 and of course to be with Jill, look for work, and meet up with all my friends based there!

Pete and Dot organised a gathering of all of the descendants of Pete's grandfather John Frederick Banks Smith at their house in Kalamunda for afternoon tea. It was a fun day with plenty of photos. To see higher resolution photos, just click on the image.

Here's a couple of quick pics from the weekend so far. Having a fun and relaxed holiday in Perth with Leigh's extended family. More to come.

After a jaunt in Sydney, I'm going to be back in Perth for a month, mostly to spend time with Dad & Mum, and other Perth folks, of course.

Since mid-February my friends and I have been celebrating something every weekend it seems. And sometimes I had my camera along, like for Darren's 40th BD in Woodstock, the legendary Teahouse Studio closing, and Matt's Oscar night party. And some art thrown in for fun. Sorry I have no documentation of Carolyn, Tetsu, or Lauren Pacuit's birthday parties.

Jill will be in Sydney for two days, I'm going to be there longer to collaborate with a mate on a paper for a week or two. Anyone have a room or sublet?

Jills first time in Tassie! We'll do some sightseeing before heading to Sydney.
