Well I am finally back in the country. How has everyone been lately? My trip to Hong Kong and Melbourne was amazing, despite food poisoning meaning I didn't do much for the last three days in Hong Kong. Here are some of the shots I've found so far:

Wondering that myself....
Two lots of retinal eye surgery (thank goodness for medical insurance covering the $18k!) kept me laying low. To add to the mix, I was diagnosed with heart arhythmia (atrial fibrilation) which, while not life threatening, does have its moments (imagine a heart beat like a Reggae drummer.....). Now I appreciate the visuals in my life and look at life a little differently.... with eyes wide open!
As my sister in law once said..."It's later than you think..."

Thanks, wasn't fun but didn't stop me attending the one Olympic session I really wanted to see though. Sorry to hear about the health issues Iain, food poisoning seems pathetic in comparison.

Seems way to often we all fail to realise what we have untill its gone or under threat.

Have come to a conclusion that Im way to hot under the colar for my own good, need to loose the attitude. Not sure how.
The stress of all the battles to be right will kill me.

Motorsport infusion time...

1/50th pan...

ummm... unless said kart has had a massive shunt in rear LHS I'd say there was a fair bit of sideways travel there?

We're all good, couple of technical difficulties over the last day or two but all in all nothing to complain about. Nice panda! another large canvas coming up?
