One of the rules of good blogging is coming up with clever titles for your posts that invite the Internet to read on, and with recent humdingers like “Weekend in Victor” I think I can safely claim the title of industry expert. Fortunately every once in a while the hard work is done for you, […]

You know that scene in Edward Scissorhands where you first see what he can do with those things? I think he’s sculpting ice, or cutting a hedge or something cool like that. I think we can all agree it’s a pretty emotional scene. Well imagine if it were possible to attach a camera to a […]

Earlier this week I received a very exciting phone call. The man called me to tell me my boxes from the UK had arrived in Adelaide, been through quarantine and were ready for collection!!
