I love it! According to this article, there will soon be London Buses with the slogan “There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life”.

Having recently read Richard Dawkins’ book The God Delusion, I am pleased to see that non-religious types are starting to come out of the closet to challenge the previously unchallengeable.

The advertising campaign for the buses was funded by donations, with a target of £5500. They actually raised £36,000. Champion!

Now, where is my cheque book?

Google Street View (jpg)Damn, those folks at Google Street View are fast! Less than 2 hours after I found and published a photo of their drivers nose hair, they have removed the image (see link in previous post). Luckily, I have a screen shot of the original. Is that breaching privacy laws?!?

Click on the picture on the left to view the full screen shot. I’ve had to reduce the quality of the image as my bandwidth is getting hammered since being linked from the Sydney Morning Herald web site.

Google StreetviewGoogle Street View has just been launched in Australia.  I was having a look around this morning for interesting views and I found this when looking our our favourite Fish and Chips restaurant at Patonga.

Looks like the driver / photographer forgot to disable the camera before he climbed onto the car to fiddle with it!  I wonder if he has any concerns about privacy!

Update: Google have removed the image from Google Street View, but I have uploaded it in another post here.

New Photos

Miranda in her bouncerAs requested, I have uploaded more photos into the gallery.  We had a family trip to the beach at Curl Curl on Saturday to walk Wellington, followed by lunch at a cafe in Dee Why.

Wellington had a great swim in the lagoon and Miranda found that being carried in the sling is really comfortable.  Grandma and Granddad Hickey really enjoyed their lunch as well.

So far, trips out of the house have not been traumatic, although the Jeep does get pretty crowded with 4 adults, baby seat, pram, change bag, coats and the dog all piled in.

More photos coming soon

Thanks to everyone who has been checking the web site regularly for photos.  I’ve received a number of e-mails recently asking for more photos.  Be assured that there will be new photos coming as soon as I get a couple of hours of free time!
