EPW Wrestling! Letโ€™s go!

Using my iPhone 8+ with a Microsoft foldable keyboard at a coffee shop, writing in Ulysses, is an extremely pleasant way of working.

Pi-Hole is doing good work blocking ads on my home network.

Zombie!

Boy Swallows Universe by Trent Dalton was outstanding. I listened on Audible and both the story and the performance were brilliant. A must read.

My first Raspberry Pi project has been successful. Iโ€™ve got Pi-Hole running as a network-level ad blocker benefiting every device on my network while also having my Google WiFi pucks apply their โ€˜adult siteโ€™ blocking.

One of the joys of having a good olโ€™ southern boy with us - he makes a mean sweet tea!

Itโ€™s Raspberry Pi night. Mine arrived today. Soon as the kids are in bed, I get to have a play.

I’ve finally got my CV on my website displayed in a timeline format that I have long wanted.

Today I simplified my home page on the Internet. These changes always take more time to complete than anticipated.

Seeya Bali. Benji out!

Just managing to cope.

I took the boy jet skiing today. I thought we would be driven around, right up until the driver got off and told me how to start it. 15 minutes later Iโ€™m a jet ski pro! Got to love Bali.

This Bali holiday is just what I needed. Relaxation, swimming, massage, sleep. All things Iโ€™ve been short on in my real life.

The face of a champion.

Another day, another pizza.

Yesterday we met a lovely family who also had two boys of similar ages to ours. The four kids played for hours. They were nice enough to take a photo so all four us could be in it.

Apple Juice is โ€œdeliciousโ€.

Not bad at all.
