Great Lunch

Since we edit fishing programmes we quite often have BBQ fish lunches and todays fare was Blue Cod and Crayfish what A lovely meal it was. Although truth be said the crayfish were on the small side, as they are the farmed variety of crayfish not the natural ones from the sea. Actually I must learn how they farm them is must be a big secret as there seems little info on the web about it

Had a family conference today

Well today was another milestone in my life. After 40 years of being solo I was asked today to be the care giver for a 6yr boy. What should I do?

What to do

Okay I am single but sometimes this is difficult I have friends and I support them they maybe past partners. Today I have been asked to go to a family group meeting I am not the father but I do want to do the best for the boy. What to do ..... thinking.....
I think I should go
But what will I say?

Lost in thought more soon

What a day

I awoke very tired! when I got to work I did some work and decided to close the eyelids well during that 5min okay maybe 10min power nap the world turned against me, why I am not sure but it did. A new 5min quick as job came in and consumed the rest of the day! It was however interrupted by another job with a friday deadline being move forward to thursday. Yes this was written on a thursday I don't care what the blog date says *lol*. Well high winds hit Auckland and rain warnings went out will still await the worst of it, will it be as bad as they say? I was out doing the normal beer shop and when opening the boot of the car the wind picked up the boot and hit me in the chin oouuch! Traffic was shite on the way home, I left the trip till 8pm

I will argue with my blog this is FRIDAY night and I have finished my day job for the week and this is the time to relax. I have my favourite Beer Harringtons and the cricket and rugby is on the TV. Funny to have a summer sport and winter sport on at the same time. Well there is a storm on the way apparently I should prepare for power cuts wow laptop battery is all charge and cellphone/modem is ready and charge or do they mean candles torches and food oh well we will see. Found a good twitter app today twitbin addon for firefox how cool browse and twitter at the same time. Spent far too much time on the Avid forum today helping some people I hope it can be so tiresome helping sometimes with people having other ideas for a solution. Well as I said a storm is on the way 120km winds and 150mm rain in 24 hours power cuts and trees down. I think I will be safer at work this weekend as the 1920 bungalow won't be that secure in high winds. Well we will see what happens with the weather. Cricket is going well

Twitter

Hello all

I have found myself addicted slightly to Twitter an amazing little tool where you follow people and they follow you. I sometimes wonder why people follow me? Oh well I won't panic about it.

Today was an interesting day took along time to get not alot done. I spent alot of time on the apra site and gee there website is out of the arch. It looks like someone took a 1970s database and made a front end for it rather than going "here is what we can do, make it easier to use and faster". I think it was made by a crazy programer! No wonder they miss out on so much royaltees
