Dave’s Visit

David and his wife Anna came around for a visit today – they are currently on holidays and were in the neighborhood so thought it would be nice to drop by.
I always feel a bit guilty when friends drop by or call just out-of-the-blue as I know I really should be a lot more pro-active [...]

Networking

( Work )

Ingenuity has grown over the past few years with very little marketing and advertising – sure we’ve strategically aligned ourselves with a few web developers, advertised in the Yellowpages, had a miserable brochure mail-out and optimised the website so it can be found better in the search engines, but really we haven’t pro-actively tried approaching [...]

Just Friends, The Producers & Hostel

Over the weekend we watched Just Friends, The Producers and Hostel.
I was amazed at how funny Just Friends was – there were parts of the movie I was literally in tears… I honestly can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard! I’m not going to spoil it, but watch-out for all the scenes with [...]

Lucky I work for me

Lucky I work for me, otherwise my boss could sack me for blogging:

Music, Senior’s Lunches & Coaching

( Family and Fun Stuff and Work )

Once again we’re already at Wednesday and the week has been a blur!
Most of my evenings lately have been spent with organising my MP3 collection and ripping my old CD’s. I’ve just found some really handy software which makes the process a lot easier called “MediaMonkey”.
Previously I was using one piece of software to [...]

New Toy

Late last week I got a new toy – a Creative Zen Vision M, 30Gb MP3 player.
Product Website: http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zenvisionm/
Review Site: http://reviews.cnet.com/Creative_Zen_Vision_M_30GB_black/4505-6490_7-31632696.html?tag=pdtl-list
It is awesome… plays music, videos, FM tuner, voice/radio recorder, has an inbuilt organiser… the video quality is better than iPod, the battery life is also better than iPod… it’s a little thicker and heavier [...]

School Fete

On Sunday we went to the Sacred Heart School Fete… This is the school Caleb goes to, and was also the primary school that I attended, so the tradition of attending the annual fete goes way back.
Rides, sweet stalls, lots of kids and lots of old people… all the types of things you expect to [...]

Pirates, Assassins and Disgruntled Female Miners

On the weekend we went to see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest and it was awesome!
I’ve read some reviews that said the movie was lacking in story-line… others said that it was basically the same as the first one just with a few more special effects. So now it’s my turn to [...]

Rest of the weekend

On Sunday we went to get the paper, check the PO Box and had a picnic lunch… Sunday night we went-out for dinner to the Hogg’s Breath Cafe because I felt like steak.
So that pretty-much sums up the weekend.
I’m looking forward to this week as I feel it will be quite productive and it will [...]
