Winter’s here

It is just dreadful outside right now – 7 degrees, wind chill makes it feel like 1, howling southerlies, lashing rain, Cook Strait ferries are cancelled, flights on small planes are cancelled – just awful. Despite all this we’ve been out and just got back from a visit to friends living in the real suburbs in a real house – kids, dog, real fire, fantastic homemade hot lunch and family photos – such a lovely cosy thing to do on a Sunday afternoon. Thanks heaps guys! Oh – and I forgot the games on the floor – you know how it is, the Dad and his friends spend more time playing with it than the kids.

I was marvelling at the similarities shown in their adding bits onto the structure to see how far they could push it to teetering point and making the marbles go a faster and more fun route compared to their approach to software development!
