I reckon we saw almost 20 kangaroos and wallabies while walking around the Botanic Gardens today. Still such a thrill.

I have to admit that the inspiration for this post is anger. Pure unadulterated rage. As many would know, last year I launched my own product review site, bttr.com.au. I’ve been working hard at trying to make it great, I’ve experimented with some things (including AI content), and have … read more

What the hell are the people at LinkedIn smoking?

I went out to take photos of some review products today in the Botanic Gardens. The local wildlife did not seem enthusiastic.

How does a typo like this happen on a product’s box?

Making Beef Jerky for the first time in the Ninja Woodfire I’m pretty excited.

I am absolutely loving Lego at the moment. While I typically get most excited for the Star Wars stuff, this looks incredible!

I guess that’s the wife’s birthday present sorted…

Finished Boba Fett today. Really love how there are subtle construction differences for similar features across the helmets.

Work

Finished the year with an Outer Rim win. First time playing with the expansion, which was a lot of fun. The great pirate, Hondo Ohnaka, could not be defeated. 🎲

And because I love me a good “year in review” roundup, here’s my Apple Music Replay 🎵

And just like that, here comes the Nintendo year in review 🎮

Ooh, PlayStation 2023 wrap up is here. 🎮

No surprises for me this year.

Finished building the Boushh Lego helmet today. I love it. The way the mask came together with the last bag was fantastic. It’s so clever!

Started building Leia’s Boushh Lego helmet. Forgot to take a pic after bag 1, but I’m loving how the details and shape are coming together after bag 2.

Worst day of my life, right here

We took a long weekend last weekend to Turon Gates, and it was spectacular. We stayed in a nice little cabin by there Turon river, watched the kangaroos, echidnas and wild goats, went bushwalking and horse riding, and cooked dinner on the fire. It was such a great opportunity to just stop and unwind … read more

Started off strong. Thought we had it all under control, and then the last encounter appeared. We needed to play 6 spells to be able to remove it. But that was hard. We hadn’t had a lot of spells appear on the board. And once Voldemort appeared, it became nearly impossible to impossible. In the end, … read more

Spent the past couple of days playing Familiar Tales, which my daughter got for her last birthday. It’s a pretty epic campaign based game. We only finished the first chapter, but had a lot of fun doing so. We thought we were doing well on the last mission of the chapter, but then things changed … read more

Home after seeing Birds of Tokyo play at the Opera House with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. It was phenomenal. The band were having lots of fun (for most of the show) and the SSO was amazing as always. A couple of tracks gave me tingles, making the hair stand up on the back of my neck it was so … read more
