ABC iView not as good as first thought
It’s slow, cuts out, made entirely of flash so it’s hard to navigate. It doesn’t stream so you don’t get to wait and watch it later. Gack. I might try it in a few months when they make it better.

ABC has an IPTV service now, free. You can see repeats from the last two weeks on six channels. Add shows to your playlist and watch! The best is that iiNet have it unmetered!! EDIT: I forgot the linux part of this. Bad news for Linux people – it’s flash. but at least it’s not [...]
My 1982, series II, red RX-7 is officially for sale “as is” now. I’m very sad, but it’s the way it has to be. With baby coming and bills rising it has to go, and I won’t get the cash to fix it. What’s right with it: Extended port Series V 13b turbo (about 260kw/350hp) [...]

An update on the baby – Belinda is sick. This is not ordinary morning sickness where she needs a cup of tea and some dry crackers to get out of bed – she’s been vomiting constantly, having dry reaching fits to the point of not being able to breathe, not keeping any food OR liquid [...]
We had the first ultrasound today at that centre on the corner of Underwood Rd and Rochedale Rd (they bulk bill if anyone needs it!). He confirmed that the baby is six weeks old, and about 6mm long. Estimated birth date is March 5, and he has a heart rate of 120 bpm. I could [...]
Belinda has been feeling sick lately, so she did a pregnancy test and it came out positive! On Monday we get an ultra-sound to see how old the little tyke is. We’re both happy and accepting presents…cough, cough….
Exciting news – I got a job. It’s programming web stuff for SMG, and I start tomorrow. My contract work was drying up too much so I had to bite the bullet and get a full time job. I will be using PHP for this one – which I do love – and it is [...]
