Happy new year!!!

January 1st, 2009

Posting here only happens when something big happens, and well I spose some people call a new year a pretty big deal, so here is a post for that occasion.

Im a little unsure as to wether I should keep MilduraRiversport.com running, I’ve lost interest in it as of late and I really need to focus on it alot more then I have been if I want to get it up to it’s full potential.

Ummmm what else has happened?

Not a whole lot actually, i’m still recovering from my broken leg, it feels like it healing up nicely and I should hopefully be back to normal (well, as normal as I have ever been!) by april or may this year, hopefully I can find some work away that’s recovery friendly in between now and then.

my guts hurt. im going to bed. Nite.

WOW!

December 5th, 2008

Wow its been a long time since I’ve posted anything here, you would think with all my time off with my broken leg and all that I would have been flat out like a lizard drinking with posting and website updates, but to be perfectly honest with you, I kind of figure, why update something nobody reads anyway?

Silly games…

November 10th, 2008

Ok folks, so i’ve been a bit slack with my posting here latley, but I thought i might tell you all why…

http://www.themanaworld.org

thats why, it’s a pretty cool 2d MMORPG game available for just about every operating system you can think of, and for a game that’s still in active development, it’s a pretty nice little piece of work.

so download it, update it (all of which is done automatically) and you’ll be off.

So get yourself online and in-game and i’ll see you there, if you have any trouble, just ask, the folks hanging around the bazzar are pretty laid back when it comes to helping new players and if you find a reallt nice one, they might even give you some free gear to get you going.

Weddings…. Ohh what joy!

October 23rd, 2008

Well someone said to me “Break a leg”, no one thought I would take them so seriously.

Yes, as you all probably know, I thought that a nice evening of Ice Skating would be a good way to spend the night before my wedding. Little did I know that at 2:30am the day of my wedding, I would be leaving the Emergency Room of the Royal Adelaide Hospital with a broken Fibular and an ankle with a dis-jointed bone.

Thankfully, my wife to be was rather understanding of the situation, and even though we needed to postpone our honeymoon so that I can have some surgery.

I’m booked into have that surgery on Wednesday arvo (26th Oct, 2008) and then after a few weeks in a cast, I’ll get a new cast and then a few weeks after that I should have use of my foot again.

I’ll keep you posted on how I go.

The “Brumby & Holding” Show

September 24th, 2008

What a pair of fucking jokers!

The ‘North-South Pipeline’ project aims to upgrade the irrigation infrastructure in the Golburn system to help increase the amount of water available, with the savings being piped off to Melbourne to be treated for use in the metro area.

With people dependant on the water in the Golburn system for agriculture and horticulture business’ being given 4% of their water allocation, surly any water saved by these upgrades should stay in the system for the better of the local communities?

The government, local and federal, are to blame for the current water fiasco, after years of over allocation and ignorance, we are now in the position of having little to no water for our farmers to feed the rest of us.

If people in Melbourne want to water their gardens, they should do what people in the bush have been doing for years, GET A TANK!

There is a little rule of thumb I would like people to remember next time it rains and the water goes down the drain…

1mm of Rain + 1sq Meter of roof = 1 litre of WATER

Think about the amount of water you could catch for your garden, for consumption and for the benefit of the people that miss out when you turn on your tap.

SA Drivers & SAT NAV

September 20th, 2008

Umm where do I start?
Candy and I headed off yesterday morning at about 5am for a flying day-trip to Adelaide for the final meetings with the Band and Venue etc for our wedding.

We enlisted the services of Candy’s brothers SAT NAV unit, which did nothing but lead us down stupid little residential streets from the minute we got into the outskirts of the city, so we spent about 2 hours driving around past peoples houses when all we really needed to do was go the way I had looked up on google maps the night before!

ARGHH!!!! Needless to say, I won’t be going out too buy a GPS SAT NAV unit anytime soon.

But that wasn’t the end of my dramas, I then had to spend the rest of the day trying to read the minds of every other SA driver on the road, because they sure as hell wern’t going to give me any indications of what they were going to do, I had trucks swerve into my lane and all sorts of other goodies, while I was happily minding my own business.

Anyway, apart from the retarded drivers in SA, the crazy road works and the fact that Candy was whinging about her choice of shoes for the day (she now has a pair of blistered feet! Silly Girl!!!) it was a good trip, I don’t normally like running over and back in one day, but that wasn’t so bad.

Time for my normal weekend stuff now.

Cya!

“The Candiece Mewburn Pace”

September 13th, 2008

Tonight saw Candy and I head to the local Harness Racing meeting, Tankard Dental (the mob she works for) was the sponsor for the nights races and her boss named one of the races after her. So we went to see the Candiece Mewburn Pace’ she blew $15 bux on bogus horses just because she liked the names =P
We had a feed and a few drinks (Cheers to the Tankard boys for footing the bill for that one!) and then went and met up with the other boys, Hawkie and Droid, who were doing the pizza delivery thing, and we all headed out to the Brewery for a quiet drink before heading home.

Tommorow is going to be a big day, I’ve got a few things to get tidied up around the yard before heading down the river with my jetski for an afternoon of fast paced jetski shinanigans!

I’ll let you know how we go =P

Rescue 124!

August 1st, 2008

Next time you are climbing something big and get stuck, who you gunna call? Ghostbusters? Nah! Give me a bell.

Yesterday (being the 31st July) we updated our Verticle Rescue tickets so we are ready for another year of readyness when it comes to getting injured or unconscious people down from a tower we are working on.

That being said, last night I had a huge amount of energy to kill so the boys and I went down for a few rounds of lasers.

Ummmm what else, we finally got the Carby Kits for my jetski in and Hawkie had a play with them and put them in last night, hopefully we will have that all up and running by the end of this weekend, might have to take it out for a chilly run to see how she goes, I might even wait a few weeks untill it starts to get a bit warmer.

Candy wants to take me shopping for a motorbike helmet, I don’t have a motorbike and I don’t have a licence to ride one, so I might just get a cheapie off of ebay untill I have more of a reason to get one, then again I might just wait untill i have a bike of my own, my luek will be that if I head out on someone’s bike I will get pinged for not having a licence anyway.

Plus we have a wedding that would be benifited from a few extra bucks being paid off of it.

Anyway, I know I’m a lazy bastard, but thats OK, I think I might get out and start planning the new dog kennel for Dizzy, she has been getting cold and we can’t have her inside all night.

Ciao

Where did Johnny go again?

July 9th, 2008

Ahh well Johnny has been and gone and now it’s time to sort through the aftermath. We had a bit of a rough start this morning but once we gathered up a few items of importance we were off and racing.

The job we rocked up to do turned into something a little more complicated, but only a little, so we clambered up the tower and got the job done. The fact that we were lacking a little in the equipment department only highlighted the need for us to get the rest of the gear quick smart. Lucky for us the boss had come down to give us a hand as ground crew so he was more than privy to the situation and decided that first thing in the morning, we would put in an order for nearly all the gear, well practically everything except the winch and the hauling socks, which we won’t need until we have a big job.

We are stopping into Manangatang to give some guys a hand next week. They should have all the gear, but we are going to have a secret stash in the van just in case.

Anyway, today was a success and Johnny isn’t the nasty bastard I was thinking he was going to be, he musn’t be related to that Murphy prick!
