Like yesterday I spent all day in a mind numbing managers workshop. In between looking like I was paying attention I managed to design a display case and two hand plane mechanisms plus I fiddled about with some air flow calculations for my new DC. In 2006 I spent a lot of time in meetings so my notebook is full of designs and ideas. Last year was less productive in terms of planning and this year is just picking up.

    Yep, the department paid me to sit at the hockey stadium a couple of weeks back and spend the day desiging my new coffee table, even gave me a fully cooked lunch just to keep my creative juices flowing. In between designing I watched the AIS team train out the window, all up a very nice day out of the classroom, problem was some woman up the front with an overhead projector kept disturbing my peace. I guess this is how the kids feel each day listening to me

    Two weeks ago I spent some time on the Woolworths floor then three days in int care, that Warfrin sure is fun. Are you going to house the dust extraction outside?
    Have recently ie in the last three months brought in a number of parcels by USPS priority mail that cost 11.95 (recent small increase) this takes from 6 days to two weeks from USA to my front door for up to twenty pen blanks for the nine minute ones.
    I am looking toward attending the WWW Shop in Sydney at the end of next week, staying for two days.
