    Pro-tip: if you’re waiting outside, don’t get caught in hail.

    Rehearsal today. Haven’t got the PA equipment yet so I had to settle for 30 year old PC speakers. They worked better than expected, but they’ll probably struggle with a full garden.

    Had to go to the new office today so I tried out the commute. The walk from Southern Cross to the office is exactly 20 minutes.

    Day 23: day in the life of

    Saturday mornings usually mean an extended walk to the cafe for breakfast. I took some photos of my route today. This is probably my favourite one. #mbsept

    Day 20: disruption

    Going to take this opportunity to say that I like the design of our road works signs. They have a standard frame from which you can swap out the sign panels based on what you need to convey. Beautiful modularity. #mbsept

    Day 17: intense

    Didn’t time this photo well. There’s usually an intense game of soccer on this pitch most Saturdays. The Sunday crowds are a little more serene. #mbsept

    Day 16: oof!

    I can’t understand people that stay up until midnight most nights. It’s only 9:00 and I’m already exhausted. #mbsept

    Day 12: panic

    There have been a fair few stressors in my life recently, both at work and personally. And although they haven’t got to the level of panic, they have been a little overwhelming. It’s hard to believe it in the moment, but I guess they will eventually pass in time. #mbsept

    I’m no fashion expert, but I’m guessing that if you were to stand on the corner holding this sign, you’re going to stop traffic. #dadjoke
