Much as I hate to make sweeping and authoritative statements like the above, in this case it holds true. I have had the best piece of steak I think I'm ever likely to have. I had parked my car outside Vlado's Charcoal Grill on a prior trip to Richmond, and had mistaken it for some…
Oh rapturous day – I'm almost convinced that we can describe Adelaide as a city now! This is an ongoing discussion between the residents of the place, and pretty much everyone outside of that group. Those wot lives here says it's a city, and pretty much everyone else says its a town. After visiting places…
Late March must be a time of change. On Monday we had a guy leave the company to go on to bigger and better things. I know that people come & go all the time, but I guess when someone was part of the initial furniture in an 8 person outfit, the loss of one…
I'm completely aware that I've slacked off AGAIN in the website stakes. My spare time at present has been occupied with writing the “subscription” system for the site so I can have the postings emailed out to whoever wants them. The good news is it's pretty much working, so when I get a second I…
Hey, how cool was Chopper Squad ?? I only just remembered it then whilst browsing through a site about old Australian TV shows ! No idea what I was doing there i the first place… but yeah, god, I'd completely forgotten about Chopper Squad. My brother and I used to love watching that, at the…
Where does the time go, eh ? OK, so I *know* where it's going lately – I'm wasting it playing Need For Speed: Underground… It's incredible! I've never gotten that interested in a car game before !? Mike and I are both hooked on it, so if you happen to drop by our place and…
Hello there… Nothing much to report from the weekend – it's not that I didn't have a good one, it's just there was nothing particularly exciting about it. Friday night was a sort of a 'lay on the couch to watch a movie and fall asleep in front of the teev' type affair. Can't even…
I thought I'd write this in a separate entry, because whilst technically it's today's, it didn't seem to fit with the rest of the weekend. Today I finally got my virtual pc environment working. It's like having another PC running on top of my notebook… not emulated though – it's just… there! This now means…
Don't put orange Berocca in orange juice. Particularly COLD orange juice. The thing about Berocca, Aspro Clear, and pretty much any other effervescent drink tablet thingo, is that the colder the water is, the slower the reaction is. I rang my water-expert engineer friend Tristan and asked him about it once, but partway through his…
I just realised that I haven't gotten around to finishing the story about my trip to Melb last weekend !! I woke up in Bordertown, barely able to move. I'll grant that Morris Dancing isn't the most athletic-looking thing a person can watch, but one gets a fair workout. And after a 10 hour dancing…
