LAN in the shedjawaproSat 21/06/2014 06:18 PM
Some of my friends were desperate for a LAN and had a couple of days off, so they asked if they could borrow my shed.
So for the last few days, my shed has been even geekier (and messier) than normal.
It was good fun, even if I only joined them in the evenings (I still had to work).
And because no one really thought things through and brought extra tables, I had to deploy my old table legs with a number of short MDF pieces as a tabletop. Not the steadiest looking table, but it worked fine - and apparently the odd shaped sections were good store plates on…
Also - note the laptop on cups - that was apparently to help with airflow.

Noosa...jawaproSat 21/06/2014 06:12 PM
My family’s annual winter trip was to Noosa in Queensland this year - so we spent an awesome week relaxing and enjoying ourselves up there.
We caught up with family while we were there, and I stayed in Brisbane for a few days to hang out with Klutz. It was a brilliant break - and well needed too. Back to work now though :(

Getting old...jawaproWed 28/05/2014 11:53 PM
See, I wasn’t always so old…
But now I’m halfway to 60!
That’s very scary…

I now have an iflop :(jawaproTue 20/05/2014 11:32 PM
Much to the amusement of some of my co-workers, I now have an iFlone as my work mobile.
Had it for a week or so, and I can't say it's growing on me. Much harder to do simple stuff like putting music on or using an MP3 as a ringtone etc.
It is better at browsing, and can do HTML emails which the Blackberry oddly didn't, and it's also much much better at going flat. It's excellent at that!
I have certainly not gone to the dark side, but work pays me, so I use what I'm told. It's a work phone, nothing more.

Brixhibition Launceston 2014jawaproThu 01/05/2014 10:34 PM
Woohoo - this weekend gone was Brixhibition in Launceston - so it was a case 'Get yourself there any way you can!'.
This year one of the major attractions was Ken’s awesome rendition of Launceston’s civic square. He built the entire block out of Lego!
As you might have guessed - that’s me exploring the city - along with my other sig-fig.
We met up here at St Andrews Church.
But pretty soon I was being interviewed in front of Town Hall.
While my cobber went and decided to take a stand against the police with their speed cameras, right in front of the cop shop too!
That didn’t seem like a good career move to me, so I decided to call into Centre-link to see what I could get. As always there was a queue.
Around Launceston they call this building the 'Hanging Gardens of Babylon'.
Next we headed over to the Village Cinemas to catch a BattleStar Galactica special.
This mammoth beastie is Cylon tanker!
It’s challenged by a mighty colonial Viper!
I haven’t seen much of the old-school BSG, but they still look awesome.
And soon enough the weekend was over - time to pull the displays down and head home.
Lots more photos can be seen over on Flikr - https://www.flickr.com/photos/notofficialphotography/sets/72157644421802384/
And as always I took a timelapse of the 7000 visitors we had through the doors which can be found here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_OrDE4AsQU
