The transportation rule

When going to to see friends it will depend on which friend we are going to see to determine who will drive.
Standard logical rule that I believe has always existed: My friend then I drive to and from venue. Her friend then she will drive to and from the venue.
Actual rule that does exist: No [...]

Train Stories #3

I enjoy reading on the train, it makes the journey seem short and painless as painless as a public transport journey can be.
I have learned these days that it pays to pick the people whom I sit next to, I myself am quite tall and the long legs doesn’t help in a crowded train. So [...]

The trouble with good neighbours

Busy Trains

I know that people harp on about the crowded, late and generally rubbish service of Melbourne’s train network, but I’ve got another complaint that is more close to my heart, and like the normal problems I’ve had to compensate to work my way around it.
School children…hundreds of them, unavoidable, loud, obnoxis, intrusive, space hogs. They [...]

New Year Resolutions

I’m sure that everyone is doing them, so why not me:

Sell a print or digital of one of my photographs
Do more photography, I enjoy it and find it relaxing, so why not
Loose 10kg, get to size 34 pants, 15% body fat
Start a small home business (photography or computer fix/repair)
Get a job that I want
Find and [...]
