On this Week
Summer of Cricket
The company I work for kindly took us to the MCG for the Summer of Cricket 2022.
Dog Sitting with Chase
I got to look after Chase today as the weather was so warm. I took him early for a walk around Albert Park Lake.
Storm
Storm is a rescue dog who was waiting to be adopted so my friend has been looking after her until a family could be found.
Sunset Safari
As an early birthday treat for my friend and flatmate I booked us on a Sunset Safari at Werribee Open Range Zoo.

2 Seasons 1 Day
They say in Melbourne you can experience four seasons in one day. Today in 45minutes I experienced two.
The Angry Summer
It was only a few weeks ago I was saying that it was cold and it looked like summer was finished and then suddenly a heat wave appeared.
Sala
I went for an amazing dinner last night at a restaurant called Sala in Koh Samui on Choeng Mon beach. They describe it as not just a meal but a journey of flavours and culinary creations from around the world and it is definitely worth a visit or two.
January Update
I have just realised that I have not posted anything in 2011. I know, it is a disgrace but here I am confirming that I am still here, alive and breathing.
Off to work
It is now 2010 and I promised myself I would update this blog more often than 2009 and as you have not seen a picture of me since the 3rd September 2009 this is where I will start.
Vicki
First day back at work today and I was glad to be back busy again after two weeks off work. My friend , Vicki came all the way out to Australia from England to spend NYE with me which was amazing that she made such a huge effort for little old me :)
Sony Vaio with HDMI
My laptop finally decided to call it a day and committed suicide. Cause of Death: Hard drive failure and burnt out motherboard caused by overheating. I managed to remove the hard drive and plug it into my new laptop so I still have my data. This happened on Friday night and Saturday morning having opened it up my worst fears came true. It was beyond repair, 3 years is a very good run for a laptop so I should not really complain. It was not a good start to the weekend. This is my new replacement and it has got HDMI output :). I have to say a big thank you to Simon Whatley for helping me through my Vista Nighmare.
Very Very Hot
The past week here in Melbourne the weather has been between 90 and 100 making it a very sweaty week. On Friday it reached 102 and the air con at work broke down, so Friday morning was unbearable at work. The drought is getting worse and to give an exampe of how much water has been lost, the rivers are now dry and they are revealing weapons that people discarded years ago, I think some criminals will be a bit worried this week. As I live in a flat and I dont have a garden or car the restrictions have not affected me .... yet.
