Weekly Wrap 631: Lots of rain, lots of sleep, but not much else

My week of Monday 27 June to Sunday 3 July 2022 was full of fatigue and I don’t know why. I’m hoping it was just a routine week of blergh. In any event, the weekend saw the return of MORE RAIN, with 118.6mm recorded in the 24 hours to 9am today, and already another 46.8mm by 6pm, or just before.

Weekly Wrap 630: Another easy week as the financial year draws to an end

My week of Monday 20 to Sunday 26 June 2022 was much like the previous week. A podcast and some planning and some socialising, but not a whole lot else. I’m sure this will come back to bite me. The weather was nice though.

Weekly Wrap 629: An easy week with plenty of time to remember the snow

My week of Monday 13 to Sunday 19 June 2022 was a short one, and relatively easy. Or to put it another way, I was lazy. There was a podcast. There was some planning. And there was clear, sunny weather — if a little cold. A nice change after weeks of La Ni�a, and a strange contrast to last year’s June snow.

The winter series of The 9pm Edict continues with special guest David F Porteous joining us from Edinburgh in the actual Scotland. He’s an author, he’s a social researcher, he’s a podcaster, and he’s a lovely chap to chat with.

Weekly Wrap 628: A podcast, a comedy, a sad ending, and rather a lot of alcohol

I did a lot of drinking during my week of Monday 6 to Sunday 12 June 2022. I am comfortable saying this. As I’ve already posted, ZDNet Australia has been shut down so I had a very long lunch with colleagues. And I enjoyed drinks both before and after catching the wonder Nigel Ng at the Enmore Theatre. I still managed to produce a podcast and do some other work, so there.
