The Parkes interferometer has been used to measure the galactic H I absorption spectrum for 16 extragalactic sources. Absorption was detected for 12 sources and values of H I column density and spin temperature are derived in these directions. In addition, observations of 30 Doradus were made at two interferometer baselines over a complete range of projected position angles; these measurements show that the absorption by foreground H I in the Large Magellanic Cloud has two main velocity components, and reveal previously unrecognized spatial structure in the H I.
