Redleaf

Last weekend was Marcy’s birthday at a house near Berry called Redleaf, it was high up a hill and spent most of its time in rain clouds but that was fine because the house was built to be cozy – Amy in the Living room with the fire The house

SpaceX

It’s incredible to get live stream from a space shuttle, it’s also incredible to watch as the first corporate owned module attempts to dock with the ISS. If this is what the guy who started PayPal can do in just 10 years, the future is looking bright for

Tracking

On December 17th 2010 I started using Google Latitude on my phone. It didn’t really take off as a location sharing application but I thought it was pretty cool that I’d have access to all this interesting information. All the data is exportable and you can plot it

Fiji Time

Last weekend Amy, Marcy, Chris and I went to Fiji. Which sounds a bit crazy, it’s not really the sort of place you’d expect to go for a weekend. We went for a long weekend and managed to squeeze in surfing (SUP), pool time, restaurants, hire cars, boat

Doobers

Amy and I set off for a Honeymoon late in the afternoon. The flight to Dubai is 15 hours but it went past really quickly, we both managed to sleep for about 7 hours and the rest was spent watching TV and Eating. I watched the movie “Senna” which was

Married!

Pizza and Boats

Pizza and Boats

A few weeks ago Tom, one of Amy’s friends from where she used to work invited us over for Pizza night. The idea of the night was to bring a few key ingredients and then make your own pizza. Everyone then tasted a little slice and marked it out

New Door

An Update!!

How long has it been since there was an update! The truth is there’s been lots of things happening just not very many of them have been put to any kind of digital media. Maybe it’s time to buy a new camera to get interested in it again!

Suprise Holiday

Suprise Holiday

Amy had not been on holiday for a while and really wanted one. So I said for a surprise why not organize one and not tell me, a bit like when we went to New Zealand for the engagement. So that is exactly what we did, Amy booked it all

Engagement Party

Engagement Party

We woke up on Saturday morning to the rain which we didn’t want to hear as this put the location of our Engagement party in jeopardy. We were supposed to do it at Manly Dam, but there’s nothing worse than being outside in the rain. Even if you

Home Trivia

Anghard organized a night of home trivia for Saturday. We all had to make up our own trivia rounds and score them out of 100 for everyone. It was extremely good fun it started at 18h00 and ended at 03h00 the next day! Which I think goes down as the

Eastern Creek HD

In February I went to Eastern Creek race track to do a couple of hot laps in a V8 Supercar. The car is a Holden and is a Bogan’s dream. The one that I raced around the track in doesn’t have the kW of a real V8 supercar
