Hiatus
I think I can say the hiatus has been a result of two main factors:
1. We got a newish computer. That now has the internet connection. Our older computer has all the photo software and photo libraries on it. That will take time to transfer across - which I haven't done. Thus, not a one stop thing to do to get a post up.
2. I had to spend hours a day more out of the home on work related activity. Something had to give. Sadly, this blog was that 'something'.
There's a cool article about the trials of blogging here. Reading that inspired me to write this.
I think we're getting the computer and work issues sorted out, so I should be up and active again soon.

Happy Easter!

Cat and Contraption
Mishka relishes the fact that there is a bit of the house which is purr-ly his. In fact, he's quite territorial about it. He often uses it as an ambush point against people or bugs walking by. Below: Concerned.

Hornets
Just before the final race, a pair of F18s did a power climb as their 'salute'. Awsome. For a video (in which you can't actually see much because of digital degredation and the speed of the little planes combined), click here (might take a while for dialup).

PC3 Orion 'Nimrod'
I took a brief video of it flying by the balcony. You can see it if you click here (note, it may take awhile if you still rely on dialup).

Local Footy Game - Trial Match
The agility of some of these big men is quite amazing. Here, one of the local Para Hills hardmen dodges his way though a bunch of Croydon Hawks to get to the footy.
Here, a Hawk takes a 'mark' (catch). Play stops for him to have a free kick after he marks the ball.
This tackle shows what happens if the opposition gets to you. In this instance, the (red) Para hills player is 'handballing' the ball as he is tackled. You can't throw the ball in footy, forwards or backwards. You actually have to either kick the ball, or strike it with a clenched fist. Obviously, footy can be an aggressive game.
After the game.
Wonder how they went at Wakerie (in the Riverland, maybe 2 hours drive North of Adelaide) the following week?

Change of seasons
What's most interesting in retrospect is that upon closer examination of the photos I took I realised that it had been women's cricket, not the male version of the game I had just assumed it had been. Good onya sheilas, and more fool me!

Apology
Maybe I'll do what some of my favorite photo bloggers do - take a photos of a lot more subjects than you immediately use, and post up the (quality) excess on the days which you don't otherwise post.
Will return fully photographically refreshed in the very near(ish) future...
