Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
We’ve spent a little while trying to set up a new ‘plug in’ which is an Events Calendar. The idea is that impostant dates, like anniversaries or forthcoming items of interest will be flagged. It’s supposed to have a widget over in the right sidebar but as yet I can’t make it function. Still working … More Events Calendar
Was clearing out some of the old posts the other day and found a few from the time we had that spat with the poison dwarf and her familiar. After some digging around I discovered I *was* able to publish them again… but with a ‘private’ tag which effectively stops outsiders from viewing them. So… … More Have they gone yet?
Well… it’s only 1433 days to the next Olympics and if the cringe factor is anything to go by then they’re in with a chance of pulling off something special. I remember well the way our mouths fell over with total embarrassment when the Sydney ‘exhibition’ athletes came riding into the stadium at Nagano on … More 16 Days in Beijing
I’m ‘Welsh Dog’ and I live here. Actually not so far off the truth, I *do* spend a lot of time here messing about so if you drop a comment in you’ll likely get a response pretty damn soon! If you accompany the comment with the offer of a free beer or three the response … More I updated a page…
Was it just a few short weeks ago that I was standing in the local Dick Smith’s shop (electronic stuff) holding in my hand a battery charger? Was it only a few short weeks ago I put it back on the shelf because it was too expensive… and anyway I’ll never nee one will I?? … More Chaaaarrgge…. !!

I suppose the opening act in this ‘comedy of errors’ would have to be the collapse of the Liberal Party at the last General Election, and expulsion of John Howard … More The Soap Opera continues…
No sooner had the new State Premier of NSW emerge from the debacle of his predecessors ignominious departure, but he immediately put his foot back in it with his attitude towards the pet project of the voters of North West Sydney where, coincidentally, I happen to live. Some background might help here, not about the chaos … More Railroaded again?
Long ago in a far distant time, in the 1960’s I think, long before Dudley Moore had become Dudley Moore… or died of course… there was the brilliantly dangerous show “Not only but Also” starring Pete and Dud. They’ve little to do with this post other than contributing the subject line and the immortal words … More Now is the time to say goodbye…
A court in New Zealand has reportedly banned any reporting of a case on the internet. I’m not entirely sure why, but I think he wants to stop people being able to research the information before the case comes to trial! What *I’m* wondering is how exactly the court intends enforcing the decision in jurisdictions … More How're you going to enforce that?
It was two years ago that Steve Irwin (The Crocodile Hunter) was killed by a sting ray and started the rise to fame of little Bindi. Since then the Irwin family has been in the news here on and off… admittedly more on… with various issues, problems, and triumphs. For months we’ve carried a link … More Two years ago…
