Well Jade and I have been back in London for three weeks now. I will get around to posting some video, photos or thoughts up here sometime soon!

01:01 am - World Cup TV
Ah, the experience of World Cup television from a timezone on the other side of the planet. The men of a nation turn into sports-mad Wee Willy Winky's, sneaking down the staircase with candlestick in hand to see the world's greatest players kick around a pig's stomach.

The Funkwit has also blogged about some unintentionally funny Commonwealth Games commentary.

10:19 pm - An African sandwich
The most memorable, if not somewhat dubious (although spoken innocently enough) sound-bite from the Commonwealth games so far (context: Craig Mottram is holding second place in the men's 5000m final between Kenya's Augustine Choge and Benjamin Limo)...
"Mottram is in an African sandwich"

07:46 pm - I'd like to thank...
A surprise in the mail today. It appears that in the course of the studies for my Diploma of Financial Markets from Finsia, I achieved the highest result in 'Regulation and Ethics' for Queensland in 2005. Nice! I've been invited to the awards ceremony at Brisbane's Customs House but unfortunately, since we are now in Sydney I am unlike to make it. Oh well, its another certificate to hang in the drawing room...

10:07 pm - The semantics of BYO...
As more wine makers switch away from the venerable cork stopper to the more pragmatic yet unromantic screw-top cap, I wonder if BYO restaurants will start to charge ‘torque-age’ instead of ‘corkage’?
