Happy Australia Day

Australian FlagHappy Australia Day everyone. The day were we all take a day off work and celebrate the landing of the first fleet on the shores at Port Jackson in 1788.

Usual celebrations often involve getting together with friends for drinks and a BBQ, and later on going and watching the local fireworks, though this year, I’m working for a few hours over lunch, then heading home to the BBQ with friends that my wife organised.
