Illuminations on an elusive mind. Monday, September 29, 2008. And now the post you've all been waiting for. TOP FIVE CHOCOLATE BARS. Sunday, September 28, 2008. When I get older. I'll become a -? So what did you want to be when you were/are all grown up? I never had a burning ambition as a child to 'be' anything in particular - apart from dessert taster (this I am still working hard on) and an annoyance to my father (success! However again, I overlooked a fundamental piece in this career puzzle - bones =...

Illuminations on an elusive mind. Friday, November 28, 2008. We live in a 'modern age', so I'm being told. But our thinking is not necessarily advanced it seems, when it comes to age-old values such as customer relations! I value word of mouth. I wish more companies did! Case in point - IMPULSE Solar Panels. What about the 'quote' of how many solar panels I would potentially need etc? The salesman then told me they had NO BROCHURES! What company has no brochures about an area of their business? ON THE SP...

Here's what I hope to (and will not) achieve over the next two weeks:. Because hey, while the list is good for the listee it's not exactly a stimulating form of entertainment. But I'm stuck for what to write on short notice - so with glazed eyes or otherwise, attempt to read on:. 8) Phone Claire o'seas! 13) Go to Byron Bay for ...

Illuminations on an elusive mind. Saturday, April 25, 2009. I did indeed love (every) a piece of it! However, it is abit of a relief to be back home, not only to be back at Blogger HQ and to sleep on my own firm mattress but also to see my husband ;-). However, two weeks is abit too long to be with one group of people, in a hotel without consistent internet (Oh the woes! And punishing my back with a terribly soft sunken-mattress each night. Top 5 Melbourne highlights:. 2) Cold weather and NO HUMIDITY!

The China Times: May 2007
http://thechinatimes.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
My bike ride home. Here it is, the rough and ready video version of my bike ride home from work. Filmed entirely on location in Suzhou, China. This is my first outing in YouTube, so maybe I've compressed the file a bit more than I needed to. Hope you like it. Here's a little sign I found not far from my work yesterday. A very important message about "the sequent" that's immediately clear to all of us. right? But in my two-hour mammoth lesson yesterday, I didn't get much of that 'good stuff'. Nancy and I ...

The China Times: photos and videos
http://thechinatimes.blogspot.com/2007/09/photos-and-videos.html
With the demise of flickr here in China, and my recent discovery of facebook, I've been uploading pictures (both old and new) and some recent videos - just a few small ones about China to my facebook page. I think anyone who is reading this is probably already a Facebook member, but if your not and want to see some of this stuff, go to:. Http:/ www.facebook.com/video/? In the meantime, here's a treat that I'm sure most of you have already seen. Even so, you need to watch it again. Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.

I was talking with some friends on the weekend about some of the more unusual "things" we'd seen in Suzhou. The conversation soon degenerated into some of the more 'out-there' things. Here's some I've seen:. What's it all about? I don't know. Anyway, I've been discussing this a bit on a few forums lately, check this. Out if you're interested. This photo and the photo from the last post are both from the area within Shanghai known as the French Concession. I don't think there were ever actually many F...

Illuminations on an elusive mind. Monday, July 21, 2008. Thought I'd share the tropical "jungle" that is my mum's garden. I loved it as a kid, and still love coming down to visit them and seeing what's new and what's flowering. And it's not just the flora! In terms of fauna - she regularly sees koalas in the gum trees, lots of birds due to the natives planted, blue tongue lizards, pheasants and a few snakes! Here is the newest part - the little pond area:. I'm a bit lacklustre in all respects tonight.
