Default How sad am I???

I am camping in NSW near the beach and am on BE!

Using my phone as a wi-fi hub and connected my laptop to it via wi-fi. Thought I'd test it to makes sure it works, and it does. Fairly fast too.

If the Sun was shining and it was a bit warmer, we'd be at the beach right now.

But hey, got some grog and a having a barbie soon.


Brrrrrrrrrrr!

Why have a barbie when youre already in one???

Anyway... You wont look sad to the casual observer... Just look like someone with a techinical bit of kit who is too imporatnt to relax on the beach for long without having to communicate with some one equally important..


Only WE will. Know youre a sad git...

It's nice, I like variety, the downside is I am off to the Hyperdome later (it's less interesting than a Thunderdome but full of the same characters) and EVERYONE will be there. Guerrila Raid ... in and out ...

Could be worse, I could be camping

Just got back to Sydney last night. The weather is appalling, I would not want to be camping in it, you are truly barking Alfresco.

There's a guy on the Cleveland line train every afternoon hunched over his laptop. I had a look over his shoulder one day and he is typing up powerpoint presentations like his life depended on it.

But yeah, he *thinks* he looks super important, grimacing at his screen and rubbing his chin. IT'S A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION MATE, NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!
