Off to the Park Ridge Tavern for my weekly dose of pub poker, think of all the donkeys you have ever played against and double it and you'll figure out the crowd it draws
Seriously we have about 60 regulars that play every Monday night and are a lot of fun, come down for a game.

Best information site in OZ about Oz broadband, a must visit for those of us downunder. For those of you elsewhere in the world come and have a laugh at our expense at just how bad broadband is in this country ![]()

Roman does a great job with this little utility, makes life so much easier. I remember the old days where I used to hand edit every .zip file before uploading to the newsgroups, I hated release days sometimes ![]()
Just moved house
January 1st, 2008
Christmas is a crazy time at the best of times, but moving house a couple of days beforehand is just silly, but we just did it. Can't say it all went smoothly but the end result is great. Only downside is I went from cable to ADSL1, the speed decrease is quite amazing, need to apply for ADSL2+ and hope my speed will improve greatly, I have read some horror stories about people getting ADSL2+ and getting no speed increase.
