Surely you should all just KNOW its my Birthday ... pretty sure its on the 6 o'clock news and stuff.. GAWD

Allow me to wish everyone in New Zealand Happy Birthday!!


Please remind me in a year to do it again.

I knew it was, I had a secret celebration for you Sancho Villa, the cake was awesome, the dancing girls average and the hot pool was really just a tepid puddle on the side of the driveway....

All in all though, not a bad soirée

LOL - I have finally had enough from my ISP (slingsh1t) or something similar ... I have been with them 2 months, have had consistantly crud speeds, the first month they charged my credit cardme $219 more than they should have and took over a month to reimburse me, in 2 months I have had 13 separate problems with them, and have now received a letter, dated on the 4th, saying they are cutting off my internet because I owe them $0.01c! Considering they automatically bill my credit card I am unsure how this could happen

LOL simply pathetic, anyone considering joining them should seriously think again!

Good work brother ... in that case no-one else had an excuse did they

Bit of a weird way to celebrate though, I just did the usual, dinner with family and the traditional kiwi 'sit in the lagoon wearing a straightjacket' thing.

excellent. I would write them a cheque for such a huge outstanding amount.
Possibly I would also enclose a 1c piece in case they had trouble with the transaction.

Bahaha... thats fantastic! Not that I'm biased - but my vote goes for Orcon.. of the 4 or 5 different ISP's we've had over a period of time.. they have been the best

LOL - trying to track downa gimp mask actually for another upcoming shoot

What shoot are you referring to? justa casual one or the model one? If its the model one we'd need to know what she is keen for and also what she looks like would help. Alot of my plans for shoots are a tad 'alternative' and may not be your cup-o-tea nor the models. But I am also keen to try some more traditional stuff, just whatever, but yeah we do need to get a plan/location/theme happening. Getting less and less opportunities to shoot outside these days

hehe, yup, thats me, that wasa funny shoot, its taken in the local lagoon, had 3 lots of people wander past and stop for a laugh, one teenage girl went past with dog and refused to even acknowledge we were there!

Cheers for the comment, this shot is part of a heavily 'photoshopped' image I am going to work on (when i get the time), it will be made up of 3 different photos, I'll post it up here when its finished. This one here has had very little post done on it.

I had Orcon for about 3 months, it was when they were going through some network restructuring, and never had much more than dialup speeds the entire time, have heard they have gotten a lot better since then but their high data accounts are too rich for me. Will try Maxnet next as I go through around 30 - 40gig a month

Good shot, Id be like that if I lived in Crikey...

Happy B-day Sancho!!!

Excellent shot there my friend! I have to say your getting really good with this stuff
