Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay

When we were on our honeymoon, we went to up to Kuranda for a day, traveling up on the Kuranda Sky Rail, and back on the Kuranda Scenic Railway.

We decided that Kuranda itself was just chasing foreign tourist dollars, so went to watch the river go by until the Railway took us back to Cairns.

Grabbed this photograph of Michelle sitting on a small dock...

I promise to try and blog more often… :)

A New Home...

Michelle and I bought a house today - currently our settlement date is slated for October 22nd...

We were initially going to buy a "renovators delight", but every house we REALLY liked was already renovated, so we felt that this was a sign...

The advertising campaign photos don't do the house justice!

Farewell to an IT Icon

After 18 years, Microsoft has finally stopped supporting Windows 3.x ... Oh the days of running an ISP and supporting Windows 3.x... Windows 9x was such a change in mind set, as were Windows NT, Windows 2000 and XP, and here we are now with Vista... Incredible, the change in user experience in the past 20 years...

I've used every version of Windows from 1.0, which was a runtime version that came with the first versions of Excel and Word, and most recently, I've had a play with a preview release of Windows 7, and I'm still mostly impressed with what Microsoft deliver in the end user experience in their OS.

Ski Buller

We Headed up to Mt Buller for the day yesterday - we had initially decided to go on Saturday, but the forcase was crappy, so we put it off for a day. Just as well, as it was a beautiful day, with better visibility that I've ever experienced at Buller in the past.

I managed to ski every single run on the mountain, while Michelle had a boarding lesson, and watched the Olympics in the bar.

Managed to get a very nice view back towards Stirling in the late afternoon...

Da Dum Da Da....

I asked Michelle to marry me last night... And the answer was a resounding "YES" Happy Days... :-)
