buzz aldrin

totally amazing to get to hear buzz aldrin speak this morning. if you live in auckland he's available to hear for free tomorrow morning too (and then a pop concert to boot)

before he got up to speak he sat on the chair directly in front of me

so that means he's technically sat on my camera.

i was almost as proud as the time i sat directly behind jon postel and vint cerf in geneva once. or when i squeezed by tim berners-lee

oh yes, i've met them all !

(just in case you didn't know, he's the chap who landed on the moon with neil armstrong)

i went to see the pixies in auckland last night. they were TOTALLY excellent

i'll not go on about how good they were cuz that's a bit boring.

but they were really fantastic. so there.

lunch with a penguin
Comments (0)

i went to our wellington office on monday and went for a wander at lunchtime

just by the waters edge was a little blue penguin bobbing about

he then obliged to haul himself out of the water for a photo

her was only tiny (about 30cm) but i loved him

a good excuse

somehow the fact that we know the toilet isn't flushing gives more weight and acceptance to the fact that it's closed. all we needed was that extra bit of info

and the internet's big nosed ugly guy

i took this photo outside my office. it's a toothbrush of course.

little did i know when i took it that there is a 'famous' toothbrush related attraction just a few hours down the road from Auckland which was featured on the awesome Nothing To See Here today. we'll definately go in search of it when we go exploring that area.

and you should spend some time in the Nothing To See Here archives as it really is a great source of famliy fun
