Hard News: One man’s Meat Puppets is…, in reply to Russell Brown,
Heh. I'm totally okay with 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing'. It's a good little pop song.
<Words!>

Radiohead and Billy Bragg? I'll be sulking over here in the corner.
In the mean time;
Or maybe it's this: I love it, my partner loathes it:
I love/loathe this at the same time, because it has been played so much in our house/car, with everyone trying to sing along. Bad idea.

The Mama Mia movie soundtrack. Just no.
Thank you. The 'friends' who insisted on giving it to our children don't come around here no more. Well, they do, but it's banned when I'm home.

I like practically everything people have hated on here (I did once like even the album I hated on).
We'll be having words if you like this.

Torture tinged with nostalgia.
The torture is obvious, but it also reminds me of a roller disco in Mangere in 1981.
Guess you had to be there. Which I was.
Bohemian Rhapsody
You just haven't heard this guy doing it. Via R Sproull on Twitter.

I'll have to get back to this, but just a little white whine, reading this on an iPhone is its own form of torture.
'Worst song ever!'
'Flash not supported.'Flash is the worst song [sic] ever.

Hard News: The Huawei Question, in reply to Chris Waugh,
The China I see…
I really like this little summary. It’s how it appears to me too. We’re none of us perfect, but there appears to be a directionality in the approach of businesses in China towards greater transparency. They are arguably under greater scrutiny than businesses operating in Europe or the United States.
We are working with an electronics company in China at the moment, and I’ve been impressed with their no nonsense approach, and quite amazing can do attitude. Quite a good fit with the people we have working on it here. It helps that we have a Chinese national working with us of course. Communication being the key.

Capture: Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, in reply to Jos,
Had a play today with a hole in tinfoil over a body cap on my dslr camera
Shot.
I’m going to investigate needle sizes…
I'm going to make a better version of my earlier attempt too. We're doing a test run this Saturday, where I'm hoping to try out my new iPhone camera. I mean iPhone box camera.
Should be fun.

Great shots Michael. Thanks for dropping in, and please feel free to post more.
20-40 min exposures are impressive.
That reminds me… to go out and get a neutral density filter.
Yep, I've been thinking about those too.

The promise of things to come.
Going back to the fruits of distinction, we planted this tamarillo tree in October last year. It's now '10 feet tall and bullet proof'. Well, the first bit at least.
