As discussed in several previous blog entries, my hosting provider changed something the other day, and since then the thumbnails over there on the right aren't being generated. I could spend hours figuring how movable type creates those thumbnails, or I could just delete the widget. Apart from my mother, who actually comes to my homepage to view my blog, and would miss the widget if I deleted it?

ok so I've been a total slacker. Dave managed to blog his three days in Sydney on the same day. I *still* haven't blogged. 2260 photos. The night I got home I downloaded them all off the camera. Monday night I resized them all and viewed half of them. Tuesday night I attempted to geotag. Geosetter doesn't really like doing 2260 photos at once and took two hours to save against the tracks I had (the photomate recorded nearly 24 hours of tracks and still hasn't filled up yet!). Tonight it was all too hard and I really haven't done anything. Oops.
I did fix the permissions on the mt-comments.cgi so people can comment again now. Didn't take long for the comment spammers to notice :/
Just to add some colour, here's three Nokia 8210s, taken in 2001. The middle one was mine. Obviously taken at uni. One was probably Luc's, don't know about the third... Sami's maybe?
Home after a long weekend in Sydney, playing tour guide for Dave2!
Was a great weekend being a tourist in my own home town.
I might have accidentally taken 2263 photos ..
So will try and sort them out soon and get some sort of blog entry or three up for it :)
Ten years on. And I still tear up watching the footage.
I blogged my recollections of the night in the first year I had a blog in 2003, at the two-year anniversary.
These are some of my photos of the World Trade Centre when I visited there in 2000.
All gone just ten months later...
Today we had a very Japanese-themed day.
Except maybe the cleaning of the house that we spent all morning doing.. hrmmm
So at lunch Nat and Andrew came over and we ate lots and "viewed the flowers" - aka "hanami"! It was super awesome. I cooked heaps of food, and will have leftovers for at least ten meals (and now for my next trick - finding freezer space!) It was pretty cold and windy, so we decided to setup inside. But we did have the blue tarpaulin and we could see the tree, so it's still authentic!
Afterwards the others watched a very strange Japanese movie while I geotagged Alnwick Castle photos.
Then we all headed into ANU to see Za Kabuki. There was a lot in Japanese only, so it was a bit tricky to know what was going on (you could sort of get the general gist). The main play itself (The Sardine Seller's Net of Love) was mostly in Japanese, but a bit of English as well which certainly helped (the story was outlined on the program too so we at least knew what was going on). Bizarrely, all the female characters in the main play were played by guys and vice-versa - very odd!! They very nicely allowed photos (just no flash).
Finally declaring full failure tonight. I don't have a new blog entry for tonight for our UK 2010 holiday. Might have gone out to dinner to Bella Vista after drinks tonight. And not taken any documentary evidence. I might try for tomorrow night to link to "today's" photos ....
Well after spending the majority of the day on my UK 2010 photos, I'm going to declare defeat. There's just no way I'm going to be able to geotag and blog all the photos in time for the remainder of the trip.
Today all I managed to do was a day and a half of geotagging, and a day and a half worth of selecting highlights photos for the blog. The hours it takes to do all of it is just insane.
So anyway.
All I've managed to complete tonight is the blog post for our first day in London. Took seven hundred photos that day, and cutting them down for a blog entry proved nearly impossible. In the end I went with fifty one.
Spent a good chunk of the morning geotagging photos. Then we went out for lunch and ended up spending all afternoon visiting Stu's various siblings, firstly at Kerry's, then at Annie and Stu's new house. Was a nice afternoon, but it really cut into the time I'd planned to geotag today. Going to be extra busy tomorrow!
Violet is 16 months, Immy is three and a half... !!!
Then did our food shopping, and then Stu spent an hour and a half cooking dinner. It was pretty good.
A year ago today we left Tokyo and flew to London!
@NathanaelB tweeted this week: "No one should have to 'survive' the working week"
hrmmm
Yeah well I survived, just.
Photo of the day. A few weeks ago when Gaelian was here, Stu dragged out his "portable" computer. Twenty six (or so) years old. !!! Frankly I was completely amazed that the thing actually booted!!
A year ago today was our final day in Japan. All we did was go to Ueno and visit the Tokyo National Museum. Was pretty interesting though.
The little brother is here tonight, he's running a train out to Bungendore tomorrow.
Tomorrow I'll be geotagging photos. It's going to be a lot of work to keep ahead of the holiday!
I think I haven't blogged the last two year's whisky nights... I think I tweeted them though.. hrmm..
Here's two of them on the night - so different in colour!
A year ago today we spent the day wandering around Akihabara and Ikebukuro; also Shinjuku and Shibuya. One of the coolest things was Super Potato and all the Game & Watches. You're not meant to take photos in those stores, but I couldn't resist - yay for random camera!! :)
