Odd and Sods

A new beginning

Tuesday, 20 July 2010 16:03 | Written by Administrator

I am slowly getting back to feeling like blogging again, but the frequency will be much less (also now that the Cafe is open for business). In the meantime I will be working on configuring the blog using the new template. Stay tuned.

Hiatus

Wednesday, 02 June 2010 14:12 | Written by joni

I now understand why others have closed their blogs due to "burn out". The pressure of keeping posts coming on a regular basis, of making sure that standards are upheld etc, becomes too much after a while.

The blog has become an obsession and that is having a negative effect on my work and personal life. The stress is not good for me.

Therefore the blog will be going into hiatus for the month of June while I recharge.

I will remain active in the blogosphere, commenting here and there, but I think it is time for me to have a break.

Update: blogging burnout - this explains what I am feeling at the moment

Caption Competition

With all the talk of a Gillard takeover I think a caption competition is in order. And here is the photo:

My caption (to start is): "and this is where I became more popular than Rudd"

Darling Harbour

We were hoping to get out to take some photos of the Vivid Festival here in Sydney, but the weather has been poor (as is my health) - so no luck on that score. But we did manage to get the following photo of Darling Harbour last night.

As the working week draws to a close, we deserve an open thread where any topic can be discussed. I am sure that there are stories that I have missed - so please bring them up and let's have a cosy chat around the browser of your choice.

And a warm welcome back to our intrepid traveller TB.
