Finally I’ve had time (and motivation) to go through my ice skating photos and prep them for public consumption. They’re now available here. There’s a few that aren’t half bad, although keep in mind there were dozens more that weren’t worthy of posting at all. I guess that’s what you get for skating on a… Read more
Well, I went rollerblading tonight in Eltham after Rob & Jess insisted at ice skating last Friday. Of course, neither of them ended up going, so it wound up being just Tony, Chris & myself.
