Geelong Cats

This year was apparantly the 100th anniversary of Mother's Day and someone I subscribe to (on another site) asked that we submit personal video responses for this occasion. This is my submission. Included   more...in the video are photo's from my personal albums (or should I say 'Computer drives')? At the end there is a 'Carols by Candlelight' sequence of photo's - which shows glimpses of where we live here in Australia - in a city by the bay. Geelong .. pronounced 'Jillong'.. one hour south of Melbourne, Victoria.

Music: "Heart and Soul" by T'Pau  less

* After overcoming a 6 goal third quarter deficit, the mighty Roy Boys hold off a fast-finishing Geelong to become the first reserves team to win a Premiership from 5th spot!

* Saturday, 30th September   more...1989 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Broadcast on HSV Channel Seven and called by Peter Landy, Drew Morphett and Ross Glendinning.  less

This little video was made more for my personal collection (and hubby's too). We had a nice afternoon listening to singer/songwriter Bobby Flynn a former Australian Idol Finalist. Wonderful LIVE! My camera,   more...as some of you would know.. isn't an actual video camera. We weren't sitting close to Bobby either..so this was the best we could do. It's a lovely momento nevertheless. Still photographs after the live footage are from my camera & this afternoon's concert.  less

A quick walk around and explanation or the small cosmetic and practical improvements I have made to my Honda CBR 900RR Fireblade since buying it in July 2007. I have added Billet Aluminum Frame Sliders   more...with Delrin End Caps, Custom Carbon Fiber Parts, including a Tank Pad and Triple Tree Cover (by Geelong Carbon Craft in Nerang Queensland Australia) with more to come. Reflective MotoGP Rim Stripes. Aluminum Chromed Spiked Bar Ends.
Improvements to come include, Toby Steering Damper, Alarm with Immobilizer, Strobes for the Front and Rear, Red Neon Kit, Keihin Racing Carbs, K&N Filter, Goodridge Braided Brake Lines, Shaved Rear and Front signals, Integrated Tail Light, Side Mounted License Plate, Angel Lights, Undertail, New Tinted Double Bubble Windscreen, and Factory Pro Shift Kit. Im also thinking about painting and Black with Flat Black Decals, and red accents.. but a lot of guys are telling me the factory Tri-Color Scheme for that year is rare, and that I should leave it alone. Opinions on the paint? please leave a comment.  less

Some stills and bits of footage from my recent geocaching adventure. For more information on geocaching visit

It's an enjoyable hobby and good exercise.

I call this surburban   more...countryside because I'm only about 10km from the centre of Geelong, one of the biggest population centres in Victoria, probably Australia outside of the State Capitals.

All taken with a "stills" camera, so no sound. I added some music and not rag this time for a change.  less
