Aksel Kolstad, internationally acclaimed virtuoso pianist, composer and stand-up comedian from Norway, wooed the sell out audience at Zebra Rock Gallery on 29th May 2012. Playing his own interpretations of the classical masters, Grieg, Rachmaninov and Bach, (see Programbelow) he entertained with good humor and superb technique.  After playing for the "adults" he put on a Children's Concertthe next day where he played the part of Mozart and entertained 150 students at St Joseph's Catholic Primary School at the Leisure Centre in Kununurra. |

We are not allowed to say this was a "significant birthday" but it was, and even Rod enjoyed the party. Happy Birthday Rodfrom all your friends and admiring rock hounds. The sign in the driveway has been taken down now but the sentiments remain. (Henry was to blame for that). Thanks Henry. We received emal greetings from Jennifer Miller Creagh and others too numerous to list. Rod, take care of those two bottled reds, but dont leave them alone for too long either. |

When I was in Melbourne recently, I visited the Royal Society of Victoria and there in the member's Reading Room was a copy of a recent publication from the Royal Society of Western Australia entitled:
Symposium on Kimberley Marine and Coastal Science
 This 420 page scientific treatise is the Proceedings of a joint RSWA/WAMSI Symposium held in May 2011 and covers topics as wide as heritage, geology, landscapes, beach and barrier systems, coastal vegetation, fish and marine ecosystems, ecology and conservation issues. |

company in Broome announcing the release of a new book abouttwo Kimberley Kelpies,Sid and Skipper, who go
mustering and face a dramatic challenge.
 I placed an order for 20 copies and they are proving popular.
If
you would like me to reserve you a copy or two for gifts for the New Year, [ |
