I travelled to Bangkok several years ago and was sure that I did not need to re-visit the city any time soon.

Today I received this short video (Windows Media Player .wmv) from a friend and decided to share it.
I did not go to this part of the city.

I do remember that Bangkok had some over-crowding problems back then, but now it looks worse.

Well, it has been a real busy few months and I am beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel.

We have re-located back to our home in Perth, Western Australia after spending the Northern summer at our home in Kerrville, Texas. Boy, am I getting sick of those long flights across the Pacific between LAX and Sydney. The journey is not so bad if you are lucky enough to be on a plane that is not too full. Getting an empty seat or two between us is our ideal seating arrangement. A bonus is if we can get empty seats in front of us so there is no one leaning back into “our” area!

But, just for fun, we are heading back to Texas for two weeks at Christmas. This is mainly to see our granddaughter (now aged 2). We had enough frequent flyer miles/points to pay for the trip so it is not costing us much. :-)

Software Development

My software (a finance system) has become increasingly popular over the past few years. I concentrate on one core product, and modify it for each particular client. Presently I am working on six versions for five different clients. I am doing some really fancy stuff with CapeSoft’s NetTalk plus a bunch of other 3rd party add-on tools.

Hopefully things will slow down some in the next month or two so that I can relax a little.
