Hi All.
Just a quick Merry Christmas message from the admin.
Been a very interesting year. Personally, I see the COVID-19 pandemic as a good thing for the world as a whole. Less pollution, more caring of each other, and the planet is a little more united. Here in Australia we lost less than 1000 people, which is a amazing result and only happened because we listened to the experts, accepted the lockdowns and border closures, and got on with life.
Myself I've been busy with my software business. The business has grown to the point where I no longer have to worry about the bills, and have a little spending cash on hobbies.
To keep me sane and away from the computer, I finally got my old HQ Monaro back on the road after 20 years sitting in the garage gathering dust. For non-Australians, the HQ Monaro is a 1970's V8 muscle car, similar to a Camaro/Mustang/Challenger/etc. I spend 6 months replacing all the rubber suspension bits, shock absorbers, steering joints, oil seals, brakes, etc, etc, etc. I really enjoyed the hands on time, covered in grease and dirt. There's something very rewarding about working on old machinery. Got it registered in November, and take it for a drive every weekend. Sure brings back some memories.
So hope everyone has a great Christmas and new year.
