Bushwalking in the western hills

Last Sunday I walked down to my old place to pick up my bike, the only thing left there. I realised when I did that the tires were rather flat. I was also bored. So, I naturally went by and hassled Ashley, Tom & Adam. :D Ashley had just bought a RC helicopter recently, so… Read more

FatMac II: Die Another Day

As some people already know, I had a rather sad time the other weekend. The Friday night (the 27th of April) my Powerbook, affectionately known as FatMac (it seemed really big compared to my 12″ iBook), unceremoniously died. Damn.
