I never seem to be able to write up events in my life and stick them here in a timely manner. Soon all my posts may be best categorised before I forget1.
So, since last time lots of stuff has happened.
Without Pockets
I've started working for myself from home two days a week as of July in an effort to start a new business. I hope to launch in early October just after the wedding, I hope that is a realistic time frame. Look for something more interesting than nothing at withoutpockets.com.au soon. I'm still debating with myself on ... more
Scooter Limbo

That's not to forget the pie eating contest, barbecue and the slip'n'slide. [↩]

It is really REALLY worth your time to check them both out.
Mildly disappointed geek.

Ahoy!
We had a very big weekend this weekend.

I be goin' t' do a more comprehensive post about t' weddin' when I 'ave access t' some photos o' t' event but fer now I'll make a couple o' quick observations1.
Far too many people think Jiselle's name contains the letter z.
It is possible to stay out late, drink lots of beer the night before and ... more
