I had a nice idea to mark ANZAC day in this blog by posting an entry from my great-grandfather’s war diaries. But I didn’t organise myself so the idea alone will have to stand in for now.
\n(Overseas folk: ANZAC day is when we honour the sacrifices made in war. It takes place on the day of the Gallipoli landings. It’s a pretty important day in the NZ and Oz calendars.)
\nThat said, I didn’t have any contact with any ANZAC celebration today – I was running around doing all sorts of other things. And was not motivated enough to get up for the dawn service. Maybe next year.
\nThere’s lots of other stuff going on, such as prep for the 48 hour film challenge and me learning to play Ultimate, but most important is the news that I won’t be in slowville much longer. I have a cheque in the mail for a replacement laptop, and it should be more than sufficient. Excellent. More news once I’m fully enabled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
