World of Warcraft
Those clever marketing guys at Blizzard know how to draw me in. I’ve been playing the $2, 14 day trial of World of Warcraft for about a week now and I’m hooked.
For those who aren’t familar with the game, the idea is that you play a character in a real time […]

Western Sydney Orbital gets closer
I never thought I’d get excited by a road, but last night I noticed the lights on the new Western Sydney Orbital were lit up for the first time, which I guess means that things are getting close to completion. The motorway is due to open in December and will cut […]

Gold Licence, not gold status :-(

Run out of Dan Brown books
Hmmm. Just finished my last Dan Brown book, Deception Point.
In shear panic i’ve just realised that I have 11 flights (over 40 hours) coming up in the next 2 weeks and i don’t have a book to read. I’m two Harry Potter books behind so maybe that’s my next read, since this week i’ll be […]

I still need to work on the banner up top. Please let me know if you like / dislike the changes. I’ve been conscious to test on IE, Firefox and Safari. Suggestions welcome!

London Blasts
Disturbing news tonight from London with reports of several blasts in the Underground tube and on buses. While nothing is really visible at the moment, all the familar places that Ruth & I have visited countless times were at the centre of the drama.

Productive weekend
The weekend is over already, but it was a very productive one. We took delivery of a new lounge, which then triggered the complete rearrangment of both the lounge room and family rooms. After that we started on a backyard blitz and paved about 6 square meters of the backyard, including surrounds and plants. At […]
