Amanda wrote a blog about her French visit with the Apartments at the end of last year. Seems to have been a happy tour, with liberal sampling of local produce and there are some lovely photos (there's one for Lindy on page 4)

And here for a radio session done during that tour

An extensive and informative interview (in French) with Amanda and Peter M Walsh from their French tour.

Walsh makes the observation that, for him, McLennan and Forster were never aware of what they had with the 5 person line-up of the Go-Betweens and the chemistry that came from that mixture of 5 strange personnalities. And they didn't understand what was there until they lost it.

Here is a picture of Forster with Walsh that I had never seen before, but I'm not quite sure when it dates from.

Well now you can, Padraig. Released as part of Record Store Day last week. I bought it. Supposedly limited to 500 worldwide but as far as I can tell it's readily available from this site.
