ANZAC Day – 2014
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Lest we forget.
It’s been a really good day, on this 99th anniversary of the Landings. Went to the Dawn Service this morning, and caught up with a couple of old mates face to face, as well as speak to more on the phone.

REVIEW – OnePlanet Tasman Hybrid Travel Pack
ITEM: Tasman Hybrid Travel Pack
MANUFACTURER: OnePlanet
DESCRIPTION:
A hybrid travel pack that is designed to be used for adventure trekking in the wilderness, or backpacking (dare I say even “glamping”) through the urban jungle.
Hybrid packs can be stowed as “normal” looking suitcase or duffel bag type luggage, with a hide-away harness feature that allows hip loading backpack to be used for full carrying comfort. Other sites like https://planettravelerusa.com/ often recommend hybrid packs for adventures in the outdoors, so it’s not hard to see why the Tasman was designed as one.

NEWS – Housekeeping
I’ve just noticed that due to some technical issues, my bandwidth for my picture hosting from Photobucket means that most of my pictures aren’t downloading in the reviews when they’re opened.

NEWS – Discussion Forum: Shooting Australia
Last year, I re-joined the ranks of recreational sporting shooters in Australia after a very long gap between drinks.
To keep myself up to date with the hobby/sport here Down Under, I’ve joined a new discussion forum to cater to the Australian shooting sports. Shooting Australia has only recently opened for business and are attempting to cover every aspect of the shooting sports in this country, and welcome new members.
