Three Days...

I have just logged on to this blog for the first time since I joined it. I don't really have much to say, but all I have to do at work at the moment is prepare a presentation on what I've done in the last 6 months. It's easily the best work placement I've had, but I don't feel like doing a presentation on it. It's definitely more interesting to program a Programmable Logic Device, order some 1uH/600ohm inductors, create circuit schematic symbols and lay out a Printed Circuit Board than it is to talk about such activities (which I'm sure you're all realising as you struggle not to fall asleep while reading this sentence).

I suppose (pronounced "spose") I should give some sort of update on my life if I'm going to make this post even vaguely interesting to anyone other than myself.

Susan and I spent Christmas with the Berrys (how should I write the plural of Berry???) which was fun. To make the day even more interesting, Adrian also joined us. He was in Sydney over Christmas but had no-one else to spend it with, so we invited him along. The day consisted largely of Ben and Lilly (our niece and nephew) getting some presents, eating, Ben and Lilly getting more presents, more eating, more eating, more eating, more presents and some food to "round" out the evening. Somewhere in there we also played "Battle of the Sexes" (the result of which is irrelevant, since it was a silly game, but the guys won) and Euka. In all, my first Berry Chrstmas was a merry one.

New Year was with my family. We celebrated by sitting in the middle of the road with our neighbours.

The only other thing worth mentioning is that Susan and I are having Rege Steaks tonight. :-)

How was everyone else's Christmas? How did beach missions go? How are jobs going? Has anyone else found any other ... verses?
