- my traditional pre-christmas
- sadness
- and
- home-sickness
- i feel better having spoken to my sister madeline on skype
- but was unable to speak to my sister Rachel in hospital
- the internet is playing up
- bad internet
- also she’s not there whenever i do get through
- all the people in her hospital seem to have irish accents
- i wonder why that should be?
- in a Sydney Australia hospital
- maybe Australia has really changed since i last went home
- or maybe I have
- this christmas
- will be a back to basics for us
- but in a nice way, i hope
