Gingatao was highlighted as a top Australian blog until July 2010, when its failure to be updated meant it was excluded from the 2010-2011 list. We think the readers can judge whether this is still a top Australian Blog - stats certainly prove it is. Requests for clarity on this issue have been ignored by the organisers. legal formalities

I like the last three lines in particular Mr. Squires. They swing and sway.

bumping into strangers, ‘excuse me, I’m sorry, mind where you’re going, coffee?, sex? or steal?’ This rolls with the teeth grinding squeak of brakes somewhere around the bow-er. Perfect.

Thankyou. I am going to submit this one to Cordite. There are asking for ‘epic’ poetry. I’m sure they’ll need a few short epic poems.
