A note from France

A quick update while I have internet access:

Berlin was rad. Or maybe I should say that Kreuzberg was rad because I pretty much did not leave that suburb. Saw great friends. Ate. Drank. Was merry. Froze my proverbial balls off I might add. Crazy cold in continental Europe right now. Not a lot warmer in France but when you have been living in around -10 every day, a balmy 2 degrees seems like a breeze. That said, there are some parts of Brittany that have been having their own extreme weather. Nearby Lannion, where we played two nights ago, there was snow on the beach. The last time this happened was 20 years ago. Understandbly, the weather is hot (pardon the pun) on the lips of every local and foreigner alike. Us Aussies are doing ok. The layers are on, gloves bought, heaters on, whiskey drunk and we are as comfortable as possible.

Tonight we go to Frugeres, a place the Frenchies refer to as 'the fighting capital of all of France'. Oh dear. Could be an interesting one...
