A day in the life. Dinner and a show. Bananaland as part of the Brisbane Festival.

Live long and prosper. 🖖🏻

Another sign I’m turning into my father: just had an afternoon nap because I’m going out tonight.
A favourite thing to do when visiting family in my hometown is to take a drive up the Eungella range. You can stop at the pub near the top and you get a great view back down the valley. You can just make out the road leading back to the coast cutting through the green.

It’s been a week. TGIF.

The life of a cat. Will fall asleep anywhere, anytime.🐱

Disruption. That’s definitely what this creates to my planned walking route.

I was browsing through photos looking for a new image to use as my zoom background and came across this one of Hadrian’s Wall. I remember standing there and thinking about how it was once the furtherest edge of the Roman Empire and how very different the countryside would have looked back then.

The nights have warmed up so time to pack this bit of fabric away until the head needs to be kept warm again.

An intense game of chase the ghost that only the cat can see has been underway for the last 10 minutes. 🐱

Puppy said woof! then I said oof! as he lunged at me playfully and nearly flattened me.

Sitting on her red throne with her arms folded up. A favourite position and I always assume I’m being judged, probably for the lack of food despite her insistent demands. 🐱

Impersonating a statue in the hope the gecko will come back. 🐱

A walk across the bridge and the horizon glowing as the sun sets. A nice way to wind out the day yesterday.

No need to panic, I’ve been here inside the chair the whole time. 🐱

In retrospect, a recycling bin with an easy to open lid may not have been the best idea. 🐱

I just need a few people (20,000) to get together and chip in a few dollars each and I’d have a brilliant Christmas present in the shape of a Starfleet Communicator from Star Trek: The Original series, courtesy of this memorabilia auction. 🖖🏻
Two of my favourite things, cats and Star Trek. 🐱🖖🏻

My Malvern Star Moscow 80 racer sat under water for three days during the 2022 Brisbane floods. I gave it a good clean down at the time but haven’t touched it since. Pulled it out today to assess it and plan a restoration project. I’ve had it for 43yrs and would like to take it for a cycle again.

This Lego Star Trek Voyager intro is brilliant. The creativity is a joy to see. 🖖🏻
Looking at photos from a 2008 visit to the British Museum. Wild to think how the Rosetta Stone was already 1600yrs old when it was dumped as rubble in fortifications in the late 1400s, which led to its accidental discovery 300 years later and unlocking the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic language.

Spring Saturday afternoon vibe check.
21°c and sunny ✅
Sailing on the river ✅

⛈️ A lazy Friday night. I’m sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine watching the storm slowly roll in. The cat is doing the same, just without wine.
One of my favourite photos. An overnight flight and I was able to capture the sun starting to rise off in the yonder.

Signalling my day is full. Don’t ask me for anything else.
