Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: the height of Australian culture.
Settling into a three-hour episode of The Talk Show with a fresh supply of super-fizzy water…
I seriously love the app LookUp; the interface is gorgeous and the extra effort that’s spent on each word of the day is great.
It was absolutely stunning at Port Kembla Beach this morning; it pays to go early before the crowds arrive. I can now be satisfied that I went at least once during my brief summer holiday.
Paco and Coco had a lot of fun at the park today. They could seriously eat grass forever.
I took this last year in Port Kembla but it’s still one of my favourite shots.
Natasha and I are wearing matching Seinfeld shirts today but we noticed that some people seemed confused. It clicked that those who may not know the show must have seen the shirts and my iPad bag and then assumed that we were from some roaming charity.
Looking over the Illawarra
Flying back to Wollongong
My wife Natasha took this photo of Coco and Paco getting into the Christmas spirit.
This is certainly a safer way to undo than shaking your device… pulianas.com
I call it: Coffee Cup Eclipse.
…and here’s the plane again.
The massive Qantas plane on display at Illawarra Regional Airport!
Natasha and I were shopping at Aldi when we found these doormats in the ‘central Germanic bargain strip’ (as I call it). I couldn’t help but notice that it almost spelt out ‘HomePod’, however the last letter looks like a ‘d’ that was changed into an ‘i’ at the last minute.
After much fiddling around since getting my iPad Pro 10.5-inch last year (like a nerd), I’ve finally managed to get the home screen down to what I would consider my essential layout. Funnily enough, it means getting stuff out of my face and making it look like a Mac. Ha :)
If our government put as much effort into understanding technology as it does in rolling its leaders, we’d be in a better position. Australia’s So-called ‘Assistance and Access’ Act – Lounge Ruminator
Corporate drivel drives me crazy. I heard this actual sentence from someone speaking on the phone: ‘We need to co-facilitate to get that up-skilling happening’.
Black and white can make the most mundane shots that much more interesting.
Today I’m at Macquarie University in Sydney to support my wife, who’s here with her students for a national robotics competition. So many children!!! Also, I wouldn’t say that the campus is as nice as the University of Wollongong’s but they’ve done a lovely job of integrating their brand colours into the buildings.
Lying under a tree during lunchtime at work was blissful. It’s a beautiful day today.
Last night, I had the pleasure of seeing Michael Palin live at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney. I wrote some thoughts on the show, the man’s great work with Monty Python and more. Others Palin Comparison – Lounge Ruminator
This is what my sit-stand desk at work is called. It cracks me up every morning.
Magpies on the lookout…
I like to think outside. Outdoor Rumination – Lounge Ruminator
