Bush to Beach - Off Road Adventures - Perth WA


I'm gonna make an outright plug for an old mate of mine here. Grazza as he is known to us, has decided to live the dream, be his own boss, explore the wilderness and do the things he loves most, photograph, drive 4WD's, meet and talk with people, and most of all, be out in the bush. 
Whether its climbing, photographing, sea kayaking, exploring, fishing, eating or just chilling out, Graham has a passion for life and nature. He has a spiritual and philosophical view of the world that makes him a great friend, excellent guide and a thoughtful host.
The off road adventures Graham is offering will truly be just that, an adventure, each one unique I'm sure, in that the experience will be well remembered by all who choose to go along.
Ive looked at some of the locations on offer, some Ive never even heard of, and Ive lived near these places! The itinerary is a great way to see some of Australia without the crowds, without the impersonality of the big tour, but with the flexibility and comradeship of a small group, all interested in seeing and learning as much as they can about our natural history, which is why I think this venture will be a big success!
Click the link, if your thinking of travelling to Australia you must take one of these tours, if your a local and have never ventured out of your own backyard, now is the perfect time to re-acquaint yourself with your culture and your country.
If you want to know more, follow the link, call or email Graham, you will not be disappointed.

I think I have reviewed this before, but its a great idea, i did all the components individually ages ago and spent ages trouibles shooting sql express, user instances, service packs and publishing sites to IIS...

Very bothersome, so looking forward to running up a new dev PC with this.

Dynamic Templates v2.01: The Next Generation | D*I*Y Planner

Ive been a bit lazy lately not making any new posts, well, i havent really, but still.

I found this today, its a cool little daily template you can print out, i put one in my notebook each day, i take notes of meetings etc on the pad, and anything that becomes a task, i write on the sheet and act on, then it it carries over, i write it on the next days sheet.  Lets hope i dont run out of line for all the unfinished work i have!!
