Sean and Louises Wedding – Sat 3 Dec 2005
Well Sean and Louise’s wedding was held yesterday, it was a lovely garden wedding and the weather was brilliant. Not too hot, not too cold and a very gentle breeze. I think a great time was had by all! As a note – an excellent photographer can make recording a wedding so hassle and stress…

IT workers dubbed ‘worst dressed’ – Breaking – Technology – smh.com.au
OLD LINK: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2005/11/17/1132016909640.html – IT workers dubbed ‘worst dressed’ – Breaking – Technology – smh.com.au I call bullshit.

The British – North Adelaide Pub
Meal: Pork and Pruchitto Sausages w/ Mash: $16.90 Pint of Pale (imperial): $7 The food while tasty was certainly on the smaller size when it comes to portions. I am left with a feeling of wanting more. The sausages far from the fat juicy things I were expecting were small an aenemic, but they did…
