Week 29 of my 365 Day Project was probably the most insane week to-date. On 11 September I cracked DAY 200, then three days later I found myself in North Melbourne at 10.30 on a Wednesday night with a flat battery, the dog, no money and no way to get to a gig in time. If not for the good will of complete strangers and late starts my project would have been over. I hope you all dig this week. It is a very special one for me.
