OziExplorer… Normally I love OziExplorer. Unfortunately it is infuriating at times. I have probably spent the last half hour searching for a ‘BUG’ that does not actually exist. In OziExplorer you can creat a waypoint which is a point on …
Pipe Networks had some major power supply issues last night… Because of this many westnet connections, of which I have two (one in albury), went off line a couple of times during the night. Unfortunately the Albury one refused to …
There are some *COMPLETE IDIOTS* around. Take this as an example. About 3AM this morning an alarm went off in a general store in Sydney’s west. When the police and the owner got there they found that someone had stollen …
Personally I think that spending 250 pounds on a coat hanger is rather expensive… Maybe it is just me. Anyway a company in the UK is selling coat hangers at that price which contain a CityScape of one of the …
Starngely I have been more productive today than most work days – not sure why. I have been working on a couple of new products – my new TeamTrack client and a library I am working on for dealing with …

I love the show Fawlty Towers staring John Clease. What I did not realise was that some of the events in the show actually happened, with the hotel manager telling Clease and the rest of the Monty Python crew how …
When I was out earlier I saw the result of another Ram Raid on an ATM at the local shopping centre. Monday morning the shopping centre had an ATM nicked. Of course this prompted a security upgrade of the centre …

Not sure what I will be doing today – I may be cleaning a garage at one stage, although for once it will be my garage. Depending on how that goes I might also take myself to the movies. This …
I have worked out that it probably is not a good idea to have four copies of Microsoft Visual Studio running at one time. I can assure you that this is NOT a good thing to do. Earlier today I …
I think I just paid for my holiday in September – assuming that the client goes for the solution I have just proposed, and I think they will. This is the part of the job that I love – where …
