One of my guild member’s is travelling around Australia at the moment. He is in Brisbane this weekend so I took him out to lone pine for the day with a trip back down the river.
Last year Andrew and I met Qer when he came out for work and took him to lone pine. Unfortunately it was afternoon so most of the animals were sleeping. I made a point of taking pictures of awake animals to show they are alive.
Home owners in Brisbane have been getting updates on how much water they have been using for a while. However as tenants, this information goes to our landlord. I have often wondered how much water we actually do use but have never been bothered enough to check the water meter. The BCC have decided to send water updates to tenants and we got our first one in the mail today.
I’m proud to say that we are way below the 140L a day per person that we are meant to be using and also way below the average for both the area and the whole of Brisbane.
A few weeks (possibly months) ago, I asked mum to teach me to sew again.
I thought we would try with some baby clothes for my godson Samuel. I figure it is more fun when making cute baby stuff and also Samuel won’t complain that something is a little off.
However mum was keen to try making modern cloth nappies, so with a bit of research and a bit of internet shopping, I got everything ordered and printed a wee weka pattern. We spent the morning watching a couple of videos of various parts of the process I had downloaded and then got to making sure we understood all the instructions.
Here is our creation:
This is the nappy without velcro. It is an All in One pocket nappy.
This is the final nappy with velcro. We used velcro for the first nappy and now that we have the hang of what we are doing will get a snap machine for the rest. Velcro is fine for sammy at this stage, but as he gets older I’m guessing he will work out how to pull it off.
I now have my little speaker image for my webu profile. How cute is that!

Well this is my first wordpress upgrade that things haven’t gone completely smoothly 
It had to happen sometime.
I installed a clean new version of wordpress to identify if the issue was my blog or if it was the server.
I initially had two errors when upgrading.
The first was 3 javascript errors that occured everytime I pressed an icon that opened a window in the visual editor. Eg the image button or the link icon. This didn’t happen on the new install and so with a few clears of the cache and it is now working.
The second error is in the uploader and unfortunately this happens with the clean install. I get the message: “An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later.” I have the flash debug player installed and it gives me the error that there was an unhandled IO exception.
I have checked folder permissions on the folders and they are correct. I don’t have the absolute latest flash player as the debug version isn’t the latest. However I can’t think of a reason it would need the absolute latest flash player to work. After going through all the options in the stickied support post, I ended up having to install the plugin to disable the flash uploader.
