Rather than try and included holiday guff on my personal website, I thought I'd create a separate site for holiday and travel updates. It's just been created so I've so far only included a short wee trip to Melbourne just to test the blog and see how it all works... but I will add further (and hopefully more interesting) accounts when I next travel.

I intend to use this space to provide updates on everything from short holidays, trips interstate and trips overseas.

For those wanting such updates, feel free to sign up and you'll get an email whenever I post something.

For friends/family, there's a link from the grudknows.com site so you don't have to try and remember this web address as well, just go to the grudknows website and select the link to the "grudknows' Travel Blog".

ciao,
m.

I pretty much just poked in shops, walked, looked and thought and walked some more and ended up down Chapel Street, somewhere past the Jam Factory/url... read more

Well, tonight I'm off to Melbourne, (or Mal'bn to locals), for a brief holiday to see Luciano Pavarotti in his farewell tour and to catch up with my delightful cousin - who has just been over to Malaysia doing a consultancy. Can't wait to hear her news and see all of her purchases she's told me about. I haven't had even a brief holiday for ages, possibly over a year, perhaps almost two so I deserve it.... read more
