Hey great news H! Probably a good time to put a heap of $$ in a new private bank acc for future camera and Astro purchases before you merge accounts.

Congrats and all the best wishes.

Cheers Daniel.

Lol, If she uses Aperture Priority mode then keep her locked away until you have your first born, otherwise, well, you know......

May she fill your compact flash card with love and happiness.



Congrats mate

Cheers

Hang on, is this the beautiful Melanie that did the "feather eye" fantasy images you did?



Daniel is right - hide money, NOW. It took me another 3 years slowly accumulating what I had before the hostile takeover JUST got the Takahashi, NOW need the Vixen AXD...

haha, nah, that's a friend of mine, Laura. We were going to make more images together, but, she's sadly in Melbourne now.

Melanie's the type that would encourage me to buy a Paramount! I'm on to a keeper.

The news just gets better and better.

I've been offered the position in Brisbane that I applied for.

I'll be a Queenslander shortly.

Don't forget to dispose of your Ugg boots at the border, they have special bins for them just to the left side of the road as you approach, where you can swap them for thongs. They won't let you in otherwise

Cheers

Rolf, same role -- UNIX/Solaris sysadmin, but working for the mob who service the majority of the Queensland government. Bit more varied and perhaps a bit more challenging.

Lmao, Chris. I'd much prefer to stay down here in the temperate climes, but, for now, my only option is to move up.

David, absolutely! That would be awesome.

Ugg boots may have occasional use at Leyburn! I've seen minus 5 up there.

Astrofest gets down to -7c
Which side of Bris are you going to set up your nest?
South is better for dark areas (most of the lights are broken and nobody can afford to pay the electric.)
