The Hobart Chronicles: Interval

There was movement at the station, for the word had got around
That the dolt, with some regrets, will get away...

Yeah, I know it's bad to mangle Banjo, and that counts as pretty bad mangling even by the lowest standards.

It does signify, however, that this columnist is about to quit Tasnarnia for the even less balmy climes of Canberra.

The pertinent question has already been posed: will The Hobart Chronicles have to change its name? Well duh, that would be yes. After all, in 2 weeks it won't be chronicling Hobart at all, will it?

What I want from YOU is your witty, pertinent suggestion for what this thing should be renamed. I've had visions of terrible alternatives like "A Dip In Lake Curly-Gherkin", or boring ideas like "Notes From The Grassy Knoll".

Please help. You must be more imaginative than this.

Ohhh you must have really upset someone to be sent to canberra in winter - i remember being extraordinarily cold there. Now that i just think about it i feel colder still then being here in good old slowbart.

As for names, hmmm ...

- Canberra: Home of Government, not intellegence!
- A long way to the Beach
- Kevins Kingdom

Um i am stuck, i can't think of any good ways to describe canberra.

I got nothin'. I couldn't even come up with something pithy for my own blog, so the chances of finding some gold for you are slim.

One could make the Ho pun, I guess...

Or else something about circles?

Andrea,
Don't get dizzy driving 'round. How about The Molonglo Musings? And you can refer to your new abode as Can'tberrit!
