Why the great silence?

Humble apologies for the long silence on the blog. It's hard to believe it's been six months since I last wrote something down.

I've been carrying out regularly updated pieces of paper, entitled 'Warburton Blog Entries - To Add' for all that time. Now that the list of blog titles is heading onto page 2 and I have a quiet afternoon, I felt the time had come to bite the bullet again. At last.

Reasons for delay (in order, from May 07):


  1. Thought about resigning.

  2. Decided against it.

  3. Ethical dilemma at work, flurries of activity, misinformation and difficult judgment calls. (Note to self: Next time, call on Ethi-call 1800 672 303)

  4. Vincent Fairfax Fellowship (VFF) reading (one packed, double-sided A4 folder)

  5. VFF homework, being 'notes to self' and 'various chats with friends' (right up my alley).

  6. Went to Sydney for VFF recall

  7. Went to Bali for quick holiday

  8. Travelled many thousands of kilometres for work, no settled home

  9. Organised a week long language course on the Lands (just recently held)

  10. Weeks 1-2 Being courted by and courting new 'lub'

  11. Week 3 Made successful move on new lub

  12. Week 4 Moved office into new lub's house

  13. Week 5 Moved house from Kanpa to Wanarn

  14. Week 6-12 Got to know new lub

  15. Applied for remote Central Australia public service jobs for next year

  16. Dad visits Wanarn

  17. Panicked about lack of preparation for VFF overseas trip next year

  18. Learnt how to use and buy things from eBay

  19. Went east for Carrie Balneave's wedding and meet family (mine and Fred's)

  20. Attended language course

I thought I was very remiss, but it does rather make sense when you look at it like that!


Here's a picture from Dad's visit:

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
