It’s Wednesday already!

Well, in an hour it will be Wednesday – I honestly don’t know where the last few days have disappeared!
I’ll start with Saturday night – we played rummikub with Kristy’s Mum. On Sunday we finished watching the third season of One Tree Hill.
Monday night/Tuesday morning watched the Socceroo’s fight valiantly against Italy, but unfortunately (due [...]

Sizzling Mongolian BBQ

Lastnight Glen, Odette, Kristy and I went to the Sizzling Mongolian BBQ House at Taringa.
Some of the guys from Odette’s work said it was a really good restaurant to go to, so she invited us along and it was a really good night.
The method of cooking is similar to teppanyaki – you line-up and fill [...]

NetRegistry Suck Balls!!!

( Work )

A while ago I outsourced some search engine optimisation work (primarily focused on link building) to a company called NetRegistry.
We didn’t see fantastic results, but the pricing was ok and knowing how SEO works, I understand that it isn’t the type of thing you see results for particularly quickly. We started a second client [...]

Griffith Uni’s Industrial Affiliates Program

( Work )

Yesterday I spent the afternoon at the Brisbane Technology Park at Eight Mile Plains (which is about a 15 minute drive from the Brisbane CBD) for Griffith University’s Industrial Affiliates Expo.
Basically the Industrial Affiliates Program is an initiative which puts final-year uni students into a business to work on a specific project. The students [...]

Aussie’s are through to the next round

Got up at 4:45am this-morning to watch the World Cup match between Australia and Croatia… and we drew 2/2 which was all we needed to get through to the next round.
The match was pretty rough in parts and by the end of it, both teams had drawn red cards and players were sent off… I [...]

Ipswich Cup

Saturday was the highlight of Ipswich’s social calendar – the Ipswich Cup.
We were part of the Performance Plus Dance Centre’s tent (Kristy’s dancing group) and had a great day that was filled with lots of drinking, socialising with fellow dancers, Boeing staff and old friends that we hadn’t seen for ages.
Here’s some pics of the [...]

Australia vs Brazil

Lastnight we went to bed early… set our alarm for 2am and got up to watch the football match between Australia and Brazil.
Unfortunately we lost 2 – 0… our defensive play was excellent but the offence wasn’t so great and although we had half-a-dozen goal scoring opportunities, we didn’t land any … hopefully when we [...]

Mrs Henderson Presents

Every Wednesday I go over to my folks place for lunch. It’s always great to catch-up with them and find-out what’s been going on in their lives – and for a couple of oldies, they have a more social life than what I do!
A while ago they told me about a movie they saw [...]

Business Coach

( Work )

On Thursday last-week I had a free business coaching session from a company called Action International. They sent me a survey a couple of weeks ago with a free coaching session offered as incentive to complete the survey – and as I like things for free and have heard great success stories from companies that [...]
