On this Week
John Course
It is lockdown again and thankfully John has come to our rescue again and it is back to watching John Course playing online.
Back In Manchester
I flew from Australia to England to surprise my nephew on his birthday, I landed early in the morning whilst they were in school and spent the day with my parents, grandma and sister eagerly awaiting home time.
Busted Knee
The police in Melbourne occasionally perform a blitz on people jaywalking in the City and on the way home I noticed them at the intersection.
Diamond Jubilee
This weekend to mark 60 years of The Queen's reign we were all given Monday and Tuesday off work to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee and make it a four day celebration.
Bad Hair Day
I am in still in Marbella and yesterday I had to change my sheets on my bed myself which was the first time since I left Australia. I was very slow and badly out of practice but it shows how well I have been looked after.
Alex Kidd VS Kidd Kaos
What a crazy week here in Melbourne, I have been working days and nights to get some code ready for a release last Saturday and Alex Kidd was in town with his entourage playing against Kidd Kaos who I had never heard play before and it was great night.
Queens Birthday
I gave IKEA another chance and lo and behold they had everything I wanted so I got a desk with a retractable side table, chair and mat so I can glide around. I also got myself a Samsung 23inch monitor connected via HDMI and I am waiting for my illuminated keyboard to arrive to go alongside my new $200 mouse which has stopped the pains in my arm. When I went to get my monitor from Dick Smith I asked the assistant what the resolution of the monitor was and he replied pretty good LOL As my flat is not that big I can still see my 50inch plasma nicely which is located to the left of my desk, I really dont know why I bother coming into the office ROFL.
Queens Birthday
Monday was a public holiday in Australia to celebrate the Queens 2nd birthday. It is quite funny as the reason for the 2nd birthday is for the British to celebrate when it is warm, the UK ignores it and Australia has the day off.
England WC2006
This week I have had a cold so I have been recovering for the start of the World Cup. I hope you like my Manchester St George Flag with my very 1st piece of red clothing, my England Shirt.
