were given a melodic injection from the visit to Adelaide of the fabulous Ukeladies.
Cathie has always wanted a daughter so it was a great pleasure for her to host Amanda and May on their Adelaide stopover on their national tour supporting the Black Eyed Susans. Breakfast champagne and orange juice with the girls was Cathie's perfect start to her birthday. May entertained us by playing a few tunes on Ashley's glockenspiel. The girls landed in the middle of an Adelaide heat wave so their Hawiian songs were very appropriate.
I tried to talk them into doing some Jimmy Buffett songs on stage to no avail. Hey, they're doing alright, it ain't what they call rock-and-roll. They were great and their backing vocals with the Black Eyed Susans were a treat.
There is a prize for anyone who can explain how the Black Eyed Susans got their name.

I win! The name comes from a Triffid's song of the same name. Thanks for looking after Amanda and May. I'll send you a CD as soon as it's released.
PS. Nice pics - Rowan is starting to look like Nick Cave...
