Another round up
October 9th, 2006
My computer has been getting some work done to it, so I’ve been pretty light on with the posting. A few things I wanted to mention:
- Settling into the new house is going well, albeit slowly. I’m okay with that, as I’ve had enough rushing about to last me a while. I actually realised on Saturday morning for the first time that from my driveway I have a great view all the way across Moreton Bay, and I can quite distinctly make out the enormous sand dunes on Moreton Island. It is not a bad view at all.
- My Mum rang from South Korea, but I missed the call. If you’re reading this Mum (and you’d better be!), I’ll try to call in the next few days.
- My friends Sven and Marie are having a baby! Their little girl Indie will have a baby brother or sister in just under 8 months time. Congratulations!
- Watched the Bathurst 1000 V8 Supercar race yesterday at Sven and Marie’s house, while cooking a pig on a spit. Craig Lowndes won the race, which I was happy about. Sadly he won it in a Ford. Bah! But good beer and even better company makes for an excellent day all round.
- On a scarier note, North Korea has about 30 minutes ago announced that they have tested a nuclear weapon. Apparently it is too early yet for external experts to agree on whether the test was real or not, but either way it is going to be an interesting development.
