I mean I found Goo in 1992. Repeater 1993. Bossanova 1993. The lag in finding things here was palpable unless you were really searching for things. The public library helped a lot.

That is a beautiful piece of work. Fantastic.

Good for the 'eart I reckon.

Nice, I get similar seasonal urges.

Things I learned while working as a gardener, plant identification is really hard for most people and the internet is rarely helpful unless you've got some base knowledge to work from.

And even then the separated off division (Chorus) ended up winning 70% of the contracts to lay fibre. So, kind of different situation from the supermarkets because government isn't about to pump billions of dollars into the sector.

We need bravery sure, but not in the 07/08 kind of way.

Well yes, but that was foregrounded by the governments (Lab & Nat) agreeing to drop a shitload of money into digital infrastructure (fibre rollout). Policy makers decided to exclude vertically integrated companies (retail+wholesale) from tenders and Telecom decided to separate in response.

Work extended out beyond 6pm, fucking great...
