I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Over the last few months the oldies have been here we’ve had repeated fun at the old mans expense. Occasionally he uses a walking stick and when he is getting the old lady out of the car he is wont to rest it on the roof of the car until we move off. Now and … More How embarrassment…
Was looking at some of my blog posts from last March… and how boring are they?? One thing I noticed was the liberal use of the ‘more’ option so that people see just the first paragraph of a post to let them make up their mind about the message and whether they’d like to see … More The ‘More…’ option
Driving the kids to school yesterday I noticed in passing a flying fox hanging on wires at the side of the road. Wasn’t sure then if it was alive or dead. Since it’s there this morning I have to assume it’s dead. It’s the ‘circle of life’ stuff again I suppose… but it’s still quite … More Flying fox flying no more.

She spent a chunk of the day tinkling to ersatz ivories and entertaining us all before we went for a walk… decided to have a cup of tea at the local heritage building… found it … More Hi-ho Mothers Day.

One of the first was http://www.talktidy.com which for years served as the abode of all my mail addresses. … More Changing the host with the most…. cost.
Well it’s the next big thing so I thought I’d join up… I’m registered as Bynge Oh…. well why not?? 🙂 I decided (luckily as it turned out) not to cough up any cash… and then discovered… oh joy… it doesn’t support Windows Vista yet. Typical eh? By the way… the wife is standing next … More Second Life?
In the confusion surrounding the old mans decision to arrange his flight at the same time as the wife’s graduation ceremony… I forgot the problems we’ll have in other areas.
