Thee and thine

I’ve often thought that when you can’t write an opening paragraph, there’s an easy way to deal with it: write a paragraph about how hard it is to write an opening paragraph! See? It’s so easy when it’s spellt out.
Then you only need to worry about the second paragraph.
I think I need a holiday, though [...]

pink-eyed-hunchback-of-notre-dame-style

Something’s wrong with my eye. I’ve spoken to Godfrey about it, and he’s diagnosed either water (via a good eye-cleaning) or failing that, antibiotics, or something called “bleph” from a chemist. Or, good old fashioned “waiting for it to get better”. It’s a bit gross. Truth be told, I thought a long while about whether [...]

Little update

So the weekend in Adelaide was pretty great. For those that don’t know, I went down on Friday for the CEBS national council as a delegate. It was basically a normal “business” meeting, but with some other agenda issues as well. But it wasn’t all late nights and meetings, we got to [...]

Big Weekend, Small Week

I hope everyone was grateful that I shared my long weekend with you. I’ll do it again next week, too. That’s just the kind of guy I am. Generous to a fault.
It was a fun weekend, too. On Friday I made a realy quite good curry, using the spice blend I bought at the markets. [...]

Weekend Coming Together

Alright, so everyone keep Sunday free, since it’s Leyton’s birthday and between now and then a plan will DEFINATELY firm up. :jerkit:
Hey did I brag how PP now has credit card processing? I’m proud of that, it took a comparitively LARGE amount of work to complete. Congratulations to me and Leyton on a job extremely [...]

Family Overload?

Whoa, so I’m just finishing my pie and Pepsi Max breakfast, but I’ve got a little time available to share some love with you all.
Does anyone else think that Jamie’s School Dinners is an absolute cack? (note to self, is that how you spell “cack”?) I just loved it when he had a bunch of [...]

Viva la trench

So, I finished digging MOST of the trench for the drainage today, and mum and I went out and bought 20metres of aggy pipe, which was PERFECT length, and then proceeded to dig in the beating sunlight. Fun times.
We’ve had a professor friend of ours staying here for the last 2 weeks, and he [...]

Whoa, Wednesday

Oops, I completely missed yesterday’s entry. I was busy. That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
Seriously, I was … the PP stuff, for one thing, Berny picking up his order from my place at lunch time, and trying to work out why my regular work’s customers who paid online were being declined 01 - [...]

What the Bleep do we know!?

Do yourself a favour and see this movie. It was amazing and I cannot recommend it highly enough. About Quantum Physics, life, emotions, who we are and what we are here for!
If you do nothing else this year this is a must see!

In the last five days

In the last five days I’ve achieved quite a bit. Mostly gardening stuff. Cleared a heap of pot-plants off a large concrete apron, then pressure hosed it clean, as well as the adjoining stairs, and much of the surrounding walls. That took most of 3 days, and in doing so, I discovered [...]
