Well, that’s it. I’m offically 30.
My wife arranged for my friend Mat and I to spend the day sailing, windsurfing, and kayaking at Nichol End on Derwentwater. A very enjoyable day, and a hearty recommendation for the owner Nick who is a fantastic character. Mat has now been bitten by the watersports bug, and is busy planning his first sailing course!
My sister-in-law sent me a Territory hat from Akubra. An authentic Australian bush hat!
Amazon vouchers from my parents have funded a few additions to my ever-growing library.
Wisely chosen (with help from their mother) PC World vouchers from my kids, plus other birthday money have now been converted into a DVD RW drive – I’ve finally joined the DVD revolution, having limped along with a 40x CD ROM for years. I’m still experimenting with creating actual DVD movies, but I can finally backup my media (audio, video, and photo) collections.
Time to upgrade my computer (especially the storage) though!
woo!<br />
Happy birthday, that man.<br />
My <a href="http://www.ausmanufacturers.com.au/barmah/index.html?barmah1.html~page" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">authentic Australian bush hat</a> has brought me many hours of pleasure, so good luck with yours.<br />
And on the not-enough-hard-drive-space issue, I feel your pain, brother…
Cheers Aq!<br />

It’s my second hat – this one’s authentic tho’. Just need to convince my wife that I am allowed to wear them in public now…
