Indian Restaurant Review
We dined as a family this evening at this restaurant in the Adelaide hills: The Siemers Indian Restaurant (& Take Away). Why was I dining at this restaurant that I had never visited before? It was for a belated Father's-Day gift, rewarding our father with a family-dinner where his three sons and their partners broke... Continue Reading →
Happy Fathers’ Day!
Every year since I have known my Dad, he has done something super impressive. There is almost no end to the amazing stuff he has done. Let me list just a few... 1. Back in the early 1970's he was the lead singer for the Murray Sludge Bush Band. He played every stringed instrument, but... Continue Reading →

Getting Discounts on Your Photo Equipment
As a consequence of the great customer service I received today, I now only shop at ONE retail-outlet for ALL my photographic equipment!

And then... Continue Reading →
Talking, Listening, Learning and Getting on the WWW

Getting into my Groove
One thing I always enjoy doing when I am bored: Designing or redesigning logo's.

Many of them are not publishable because they are businesses that can afford to sue... Continue Reading →
20 Reminders to Live, Love and Do More
In 1993 I bought a little book entitled "Just Do It" that includes a heap of inspirational and quotable gems. I still read it in 2009 because, heck, we all need a little inspiration from time to time. I love quotes that both remind me that I am only human, plus those that give me... Continue Reading →
