Photography

I’ve been slowly getting the new photography system online. Photographs are being added again and everything should be functioning within the next few days.

Leaving for Brisbane

Today I went out to dinner with my mum, Justin and Sharon (one of my mum’s friends) as a last night dinner. We had a banquet at a Chinese restaurant in Windsor. My mum and sister are moving to Brisbane. My sister is already there, but my mum is leaving early Friday morning. I’ll miss them, but I’ll be able

Virgin Blue

Well, Justin and I were getting slightly bored so we decided to fly to Melbourne next week for a few days. It has been 10 years since I last went to Melbourne so I’m looking forward to seeing it again. Unfortunately reasonably priced Qantas tickets were unavailable unless we wanted to fly at 6am. I’ve never flown Virgin Blue before

Photography System Changes

Today I’ve been spending time replacing my old manual photography section with a script called “4images”. I was developing my own, but decided not to bother. Until I’ve finished getting it all working, the photography section will be unavailable but hopefully this won’t be for too long. With the new system I’ll be adding two more categories – Airport photos

Happy New Year

Well, I was away on holidays when the New Year passed so I’m taking this opportunity to wish everybody a Happy New Year! Personally I enjoyed a quiet evening at Gretel Farm with the family, watched the Sydney fireworks on TV and relaxed.

Journal 1.2

I’ve made some updates to the backend to the Journal system to make some improvements. The improvements include allowances for multiple entries per day, a cleaner layout (more in the “blog” style) plus other improvements to the backend. You may have noticed that I have introduced a “time posted” indicator. However, as this value was not stored with older journal

Back from Holidays

Well, after almost 12 hours of travelling I am home from holidays near Bangalow (close to Byron Bay) on the Northern NSW coast. We spent two weeks at a wonderful place called Gretel Farm. The house on Gretel Farm is a 4 bedroom + loft house built in 1895 by early pioneers of of the region. During the holiday we

December 14 Update

Today’s Listening: Dishwalla – Angels or Devils Well, it’s been a few weeks since my last journal post. Not a great deal has happened in the life of Shaun but I’ll share anyway. At the start of the month my Digitrex DVD player decided to quit playing DVDs. For some peculiar reason it plays everything else (VCD, CD, MP3, etc)

November 28 Update

Today’s Listening: Digitally Imported Classical The past week has been fairly uneventful. Recently I’ve been listening to the various music streams relayed by my ISP iiNet quite a bit. iiNet’s streams include trance, DnB, classical and alternative rock and don’t count towards the quota which is always good! As with all permanent connections, outages must be experienced sometimes. Today I

November 21 Update

Today’s Listening: Robbie Williams – Feel Well, a lot of things have happened in the 10 days since I posted last. Anyway, I’m now officially on holidays until March 2002. Hopefully I’ll be able to clear the backlog of things I’ve been meaning to do all this time. Till next time!
