chinese democracy and old friends
Still catchign up with the blogsphere, I needed to mention that I caught up with Morgs for the very first time at eGames, which was great. I wasn’t sure if he was coming or not, but when some guy showed up bearing a startling resemblance to the Morgs from TFM Comix, I knew we had [...]
Riverina Music Festival
GPC‘s first non-CMS related job in a little while… I’ve teamed up with Dinah, who’s gone ahead and done basically all the hard work. Riverina Music festival will be held in early February at Nerrandera. You can get all the details (very shortly) from www.riverinamusicfestival.com.

eGames – after the dust has settled
I’ve made it back home in one piece and after sitting around in a daze for a whole day, I’m ready to make a report. Event management seems to be a very particular and peculiar lifestyle. You’d have to have boundless personal energy and integrity to do it on a regular basis. You’d have to [...]

In addition to this, for some reason my card reader isn’t reading cards, so the photos are a bit light on at this stage. Apart from that I’ve been very [...]
