Ah back to the desk I am. Its OK, the tedious stuff always has good results, and thats what I’m paid for. But you all know about working…
The last couple of weeks were filled with a whirlwind trip around Victoria, visiting Bel’s family and my brother. And catching trout in the Mitta river, and [...]
As usual, its been almost a month since I last looked in here! Well, you can rest assured I still think about this site a bit, and have even started extracting content from the old overcomplicated beast in order to reload it all.
I digress. Yesterday I rode my mountain bike 100km, along with around 200 [...]
In the last two weeks I’ve done more climbs on the organ pipes than in the two years before that!
Crazy huh? had a new year climb fest, involving arriving at work by 7 am so I could go climbing at 3. Good fun but I need a rest now! A few days off, then Hillwood [...]
welcome to 2008 everyone! In the months since my last entry here, much has happened. Lets wind back to Movember. Yep, I grew a Mo in aid of mens health, and it looked quite funny. It gets real bushy if I leave it on long enough. Hilarious! But it got shaved off real quick after [...]
I’ve actually been back on Terra Firma for some time now, a few days short of a month! Crikey time flies. So you can see what I got up to on the ship at the SIPEX voyage website, if you navigate to ‘blogs’ and look for my entry there.
So, what have I been up to? [...]
Finally, I registered to vote today. Phew, and about time. I’m very keen to cast my vote in the upcoming federal election, due sometime later this year. Australia is in a political shemozzle – there is a distinct lack of checks and balances, and a distinct feeling that we as a people are being [...]
welly well well… this week has been like christmas! I’ve put together a new bike – DMR switchback frame with a whole pile of hand-picked funky bits. First ride just an hour ago has made mountain biking a whole new level of fun again!
Also, a new camera arrived so I’ve been trying to figure out [...]
Who’d a thunk it? fluffly, soft, fresh snow in Tasmania? Unheard of… but thats what Pete and I got last Sunday up at Mt Field. We postholed our way to glory on the Rodway tow line, through knee to waist deep fluffy stuff in amazing clear sunshine! And equally amazing was the lack of punters [...]
Its 28 days until I jump on a ship with a load of other science geeks and sail to the deep frozen South! The cruise web site has been launched, so you can follow the journey when it starts. Most things are sort of packed and organised, my new camera is shipping next week, so [...]
Its been nearly a week since the winter challenge – crikey time flies… Anyway, I decided to go hard and didn’t die, although it hurt a fair bit.
Nothin’ else to say really – should read the news sometime… whats going on out there, world?
