Weekly Wrap 644: I have a cold, but I still got things done because I’m a hero

This Weekly Wrap is appearing a day late because my week of Monday 26 September to Sunday 2 October ended in a long weekend, and I took full advantage of that. Nevertheless there’s a fantastic podcast for you to listen to, and a radio program too, plus I updated the Canberra digital developments thing. Also, I have a cold.

Weekly Wrap 638: Remembering last year’s snow as more is imminent

My week of Monday 15 to Sunday 21 August 2022 was haunted by the cold which continued from last week, although as I write this I seem to have finally recovered. Nevertheless, I did quite a bit of sleeping, and some of my SEKRIT geek-work and editorial consulting was delayed.

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 Niña, and a strange contrast to last year’s June snow.

Weekly Wrap 612: Summer nears its end with some actual summer, a couple of podcasts, and a rose

Monday 14 to Sunday 20 February 2022 was one of more productive weeks. Two podcasts recorded. A major update to a blog post. And a lot of attention paid to what was happening in parliament. I even managed to enjoy the almost-end of summer.

Weekly Wrap 576: There was snow, there was a podcast

There was snow in the Blue Mountains during the week of Monday 7 to Sunday 13 June 2021, and I enjoyed spending the afternoon in a warm front bar at Leura watching it through the window. There was also a podcast, and then on Sunday quite a bit of ill-advised drinking — which is why this Weekly Wrap is appearing on Monday afternoon.

Weekly Wrap 492: Cyber strategy and mud, probably

What a week! My week of Monday 28 October to Sunday 3 November included a conference, some writing, and finally a podcast! Read on, and despair.
