I've been very slack
It's well due for another post.
For those of you who havent caught up with us yet - we're expecting our first child in late April of next year. And of course we're very excited!
Paula has convinced me to hold off on knowing whether it's a boy or a girl as she wants it to be a surprise.
Other than that we've been lazing around the city and cooking up lots of new stuff at home, but there's no real other news.
cya,
Sam.

Don't swim there
Boat launching site near my brother's place...
During the recent cyclone, the local crocodile farm 'lost' 40 salt water crocs. Yep.

The skunkworks
Well, life is good. Went and saw Hugh Jackman in The Boy From Oz on Saturday, after the usual friday night's dodgy feed at Quan 88 the night before. And celebrated by having Saturday dinner out with a mate by the name of Bryce on the Saturday night.
Sunday's weather was so good (Gordbless global warmage) that after stocking up at the South melbourne Market, we took the MX5 around the bay with the top down and I actually copped a bit of a tan. Not bad for a southern hemisphere winter.
Last night's return to poor weather was a chance to pull apart a 44 year old Porsche tacho and clean the various bits before sticking it back together. Without a single finger print inside the glasswork.
It's lemon season, so after all that hard work what was needed was clearly pancakes.

Nice weather we're havin'
Park across the road today - what a belter!
We went and saw "woman in black" last night in town - and it was well worth the 80 bucks for the tickets. Very low tech special effects and some excellent acting by John Waters made for a great night out - a really engaging old fashioned ghost story without being high tech and modern.
Living in the city I've been more and more interested in bits of urban street art slapped up around the place. Whilst all the tagging that plagues most walls is just uncreative gate pissing, some little bits of street art here and there really catch you out at times and get a reaction out of you.
One piece of Melbourne's urban art that seems to have gotten a bit of press overseas is a giant Tetris style exhibition made from milk crates and lowered over a freeway wall when no-one was looking. Here's some pics:
