This past Sunday we made a baby sleeping hammock! We’d heard of them and they seemed like such a great way to start a new human off in the world, as opposed to being lost in a giant crib. So, we eaded off to e-bay, looked at quite a few of them and were about [...]
In around 3 weeks there will be a new little human doing its new human thing in our household. What a crazy thought! Its both exciting and scary – but its been done billions of times before… no doubt I’ll write even less about life here when the little’un arrives!
Its been an intense weekend, dominated [...]
Ahhh… almost a week has passed since I returned from the glorious rock of Mt Arapiles. It was a very good trip, although I really had to wind back my expectations – the price you pay for not climbing much between big missions. Regardless, loads of good climbing was had with some repeats, alternate [...]
This week I’m on a remote area first aid course. There’s so much to learn, and it really is one of those ‘things I should have done years ago’. But it is never too late. So a group of us have been hanging out in a scout camp on top of a hill not far [...]
Its nearly the end of April and I have been slack at updating things again. Trying to escape the facebook plague and get back into this little baby of my own. Sheesh.

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? [...]
