Mumford and Sons

Hmm whats been happening the last 2 weeks.

Went to the Bookfest just before Australia Day, I love this so much, every year I seem to go more and more beserk even though my reading has droped to virtually non-existent. I estimate I got over 100 kilos of books/puzzles and magazines, took 3 loads to the car. Mostly kids books magazines and puzzles but have to get enough for the year. Shame the science fiction section is so small and so crowded! Could not even get a look in.

Setting up a new HT PC around a cheap AMD 620, got really excited about it but its driving me nuts, BSOD all the time and I cant figure out if its a bloody mboard /CPU or memory error. As I built it myself I really need to track down which part is failing to return it and its impossible without spares. AAARRRRGGGHHH.
Saved $70 putting it together myself , taking 10 hours of time, not worth it!


Congratulations on Mumford and Sons winning Hotest 100 on JJJ. I dont listen to JJJ but watch Rage whenever I can (which is why I am setting up the HTPC so I dont have to use the old VHS anymore!).

Great album and really did not expect so many people to like it as it really is Folk.

Lots and lots of whingers "worst song to win ever" BS though on blogs etc. some people need a good Bex and a lie down.

Good to see Florence and the Machine and the XX in there as well,

Would have been great if the Decemberists got in there somewhere, "The Hazards of Love" is brilliant.

Got to go on my very rare fishing day off 2 weeks ago, went kayaking with a friend from Point Cartwright to Mudjimba Island chasing Pelagics, did over 25klm and got severely sun burnt despite loads of 30+. Great fun but got very tired the last 5 klms. Got my first spotted Makeral (72cm about 3-4KG) which was great but we did not get anything else despite lots of fish boiling on the surface. Cant wait to go again.

Girls birthday's are next week, going to get a bit crazy.
