I remember playing at concerts like this when I was a kid but I would have been ~12 years old.

This kid is amazing to be playing this piece at 5. His parents are probably pretty tough on him.

I'm thinking of trying to build my own golf mat to hit golf balls off in the shed. I watched this video and it seems possible to do. These were the things I'll need:

1. Turf offcuts from a synthetic turf supplier, maybe these guys have some, have reached out to a few different businesses to enquire
2. Rubber mat, something like this
3. Liquid nails, this is probably fine
4. Rope to hang tarp off
5. Tarp or a sheet to hit ball into

There's also this mat from Bunnings which might be worth just getting considering it's $116 plus delivery.

Boots is still a very bad loose leash walker. It's one of his worst behavioural issues which we've never really figured out a good solution to.

Watching Muster Dogs episode 2 showed some training for teaching loose leash walking that I think could work with Boots.

The training worked as follows:

• When walking your dog draw a circle around yourself, the semi circle in front in the humans space and the semi circle in the back is for the dog
• If the dog tries to get into the semi circle in the front they are blocked with a pool noodle

Hopefully doing this a few times a week will help Boots get better at walking.

A couple of things:

• How do you type on this?
• Personas seem weird
• Using a Mac in Vision Pro seems pointless unless I'm somewhere away from my workspace
• Laying down and watching movies and looking at photos on the ceiling would be awesome for people in hospital

This was me complaining to Emma in New York City.

I could watch this all day but I bet all that equipment is expensive.

This looks damn good. Will try and make next week.

This might be another indie game to try. I totally missed the hype on it.

So good to see these guys playing together again.

Yesterday one of my childhood dreams was fulfilled.

I had my own backyard cricket pitch.

The pitch played really well. It was a good size and had plenty of bounce and variation. Lessons learnt for next time is to bring bulk tennis balls and have some electrical tape on hand to make swing kings. I think we lost ~4 balls for 6 and out.

This was an awesome video on some at home training drills for hitting the ball solid with wedges.

I would love to have my own setup like this in the shed.
