I’m in the hunter valley just outside of Sydney , Australia at a work function at the moment and whenever I come to australia I wake up far too early.  This is the fruits of my 05:30 rise this morning……

692 pieces

Max

Marc on October 25, 2008

Max does a number of daily chores around the house (usually) and in return he gets pocket money (allowance).  He’s been saving up this money and any other cash that he’s been given for a while now to save up for the Lego Aiport and this week he had reached his target of $120!

This set is 692 pieces and even at five I reckon he completed at least 60% of it on his own with another 10% just us moving things slightly so they were right.  Good lad :)

Yet another Labour Day public holiday missed because of travel to Australia.  I worked out that I have had one Labour Day public holiday in the last six years because I’ve worked for companies based in Australia and they don’t have the same holidays and seem to organise things for this week :(

Here’s what I’m up to over the next month:

  • Sunday 26th October – Fly to Sydney for a sales conference in the Hunter Valley
  • Thursday 30th October – Fly back home
  • Wednesday 5th November – Fly to Sydney with Vic to watch the Phoenix play
  • Saturday 8th November – Fly Back home
  • Thursday 13th November – Fly to London
  • Sunday 16th November – Fly from London to Prague for a technical conference
  • Thursday 20th November – Back to London for a few days
  • Monday 24th November – Fly from London to home
  • Wednesday 26th November – Get home! yay!

Phew………

Elliot, Max

Marc on October 15, 2008

I said yesterday that we had cut Elliot’s hair.  We had cut Max’s hair and Elliot had gone on and on about wanting his the same so after deciding that at worse all that we’d have to do is wait for it to grow back we cut it.  Here are the results (and one of Max too :) )

Still here!  Not much happening really – same shit different day.

Vic has just got over two weeks of school holiday hell and being really busy with her cards business but nothing really stick out.

Oh, we cut Elliot’s hair so I’ll post a picture soon :)

Photography

Marc on September 26, 2008

Well, after a bit of work, my photo site aboughtlight is up and running (again).  By a bit of work I mean a couple of hours deciding on how I wanted it to look and what I wanted to do and then about 15 minutes to get it the the stage where I could add content.

I’ll add a photo every day or two as I trawl through my archves or take new photos.
