My new laptop is finally here, and it’s exactly what I wanted, it’s made of tanks, it’s pretty light, and it’s really boring! so somewhere in me, the littel kid is slightly upset that it isn’t increadably ‘cool’, but what’s really cool is beiang about to work for 3 hours in the bright sunshine in the brisbane botanic gardens, and then watch a film on my flight home It’s great to be able to work in cafe’s, there is, in some sort of perverse way, less distraction in cafes than there is in my office. I’d imagine that it’s something to do with my ADHD brain that needs some white noise to take the edge off my distractability. Now I can write stuff on my own time, I’ll put up some stuff about what I’m working on at the moment over the next few days.
While GCuser is down, I thought I’d be kind to the world and post my tutorials on here for the wold to see.
I’ve revamped and re-energised the two main tutorials. There are still appearances from Paul Daniels and Debbie Magee, Vanilla ice, and there is a special guest appearance from Snow White’s step mother - none other than the evil queen herself!!!
I’ll post more stuff as it gets ‘finished’ but in the meantime, if you find any problems with these two, let me know via the comments.

In a past life, I made drinks and witty banter for a living.
These are the two menus that I had the most involvement in making.
some of the jokes are a bit old now, but the drinks are still amazing.
There is a new bit at the start of the 2 day workshop that I do that deals with a lot of the general theory of using GC, it’s still got a long way to go before it’s perfect, but it’s currently lopping about half a day off the time taken to get to the end of what was previously the end of the workshop.you can find the PDF presentation here…
..and you can find the scans of the notebook that I planned it in below. I think these 3 pages are actually far more interesting than the finished product!
