Hey, fella!

Our Mac User Group's meeting venue is undergoing major renovations/additions this year, our first meeting for the year is on Saturday and I'd like to check out the changes to parking before then.
Today, in an adjoining suburb I'm taking my mother to an orthopaedic surgeon for her regular post-op surgery about a year ago.
An ideal opportunity to slip by the meeting venue & determine the best parking arrangements.

In Melbourne's early settlement days, there were many possible names suggested, my favourite being Bearbrass.

I often wish that one had been chosen.

Inflatable cheese sandwich!

Fitted a very heavy nylon line to my 36 volt cordless line trimmer to see if it could handle it. Works fine, I've had the trimmer for a year but only used it once because the line supplied with it is near on useless, I reckon it should have something in between the two extremes tried thus far. I reckon I'll go with the next-smallest diameter line to wot it currently has. I'm being really generous and charging it up for the 4th time ever.

Defrosting a loaf of Scottish Lorne (square) sausage for meals this week.

I've discovered a website about my DSLR where a camera person sells cheat sheets at $10 a bunch, with each bunch referring to a particular lens. I have four of those five lenses. The cheat sheets are business card sized PDF which can be orinted or saved onto a smartphone. Very tempted.

A few decades ago whilst crossing a bridge named after a State politician who lived in the area I asked my father for his opinion of the man. Dad was something of sn authority on such people and I'll admit his answer surprised me. "He was a solicitor before WW2 and a politician after it. And a lieutenant in the same section I served in. He was a fine soldier and a considerate man who stood by his principles his entire life." My father generally held low opinions of pollies & the legal profession so this was something of a revelation to me.

@kdfrawg Seems like Find Any File might be useful for you. http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/

@kdfrawg Frankly, I'd be lost without it.
