I know I’m going to cop some grief for this. But as a Pies supporter god I love watching our games. Winning aside, they’re usually super exciting and high quality outings. Reminds me how awesome fotty is.

We've got Collingwood, Geelong and Carlton supporters at work, and I love hearing their banter come Monday!

I'd forgotten that swinging a golf club a bunch of times plus placing golf balls on tees over and over is actually a little bit of a workout for the critically unfit. Feels good though. Grabbed an extra shot flat white on the way home and used it to wash down a couple of ibuprofens. She'll be right.

Sorry for flooding with comments but I had to show you all this. They have been building this "Urban Forest" for many months and actually had the balls to host a grand opening event for this bullshit this morning.

It's a few shit concrete garden beds. Peak Docklands.

I think I've found my example property to use for my sustainable design project. Still not sure if I will use this or plan a new build for the project, but it's a start.

Sorting out the spare room is not going well. Too much overwhelming mess. I think I might sort the preserving rings and lids, then call it a day for sorting. Then a drizzly dog walk, followed by lifting heavy things. At some point I need to work out what to have for dinner. Too many options. Maybe potato and chilli.

I have found a local art tutor who I think will be good. She mostly teaches beginners but she has a strong independent creative streak and likes to do new things, which I really like. I want someone to "spot" me when I'm working, that is tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to do it right, make criticisms and suggestions to my work. And of course guide me in new styles and techniques.

My language skills are poor tho.

Ended up getting the Pro 7. Very happy with this, though I have to wait like two weeks for a case (not a fan of the ones JB has).

Okay, who ordered the rain?

Had burger and chips for lunch. Now I feel like my hands will smell like burgers FOREVER.
