First Post!

A new blog for me, hopefully something I can maintain a little better than previous efforts.

In a bid to keep it going I'm going to mix it up a little, including some industrial relations/employment law opinions and commentary as well as some personal posts on things that interest me: photography, cycling and music to name a few.

I'll commemorate this blog with a stupid idea, making a prediction for the Qld election date: 4 April 2009. Why? I can't really say as I have some 'inside info' but it will be called soon, I have little doubt about that. I guess some public events that lead me to believe it is coming are:

• Bligh's newly launched website,
• a spate of recent retirements from sitting members,
• timing perfect for a pre-holiday election (just before Easter)

So, there you have it.

UPDATE: Well it turns out I wasn't right, but wasn't far wrong either - March 21 it is!
