Pat,

Without going into too much detail I'm researching the social history of public ownership in NSW and Queensland, in particular in relation to the development of the steel industry 1890-1920. Looking at Labor's 'traditional' commitment to state enterprise and the extent to which communities (ie: Newcastle NSW and Bowen/Townsville QLD) influenced these policies. Labour/social history project. Kind of political history to a point but more looking at the connection between people and policy where 'big picture' projects are concerned. Hope to submit at the end of the year but have been doing too much teaching of late. Gotta pay the bills somehow...

What was your research area in politics?

Shawn.

I am an exotic dancer in a cabaret line-up in Perth's scummiest gay bar. I take off my clothes and perform degrading acts to bad music played through a cheap PA. If the money's right I will take some blokes out the back for something quick and satisfying. The pay is shit-house and I hate my work.

Actually I'm a criminal lawyer. I work for killers and the people that pinch your VCR. But I tell my kids I'm an exotic dancer so they have something respectable to tell their mates at school.
