Another Christmas and again we're off on another cruise around the south-west pacific.
This time next week my partner & I will be very near boarding on 2 weeks out of Sydney, first stop New Caledonia, port hopping around Fiji, & back to Sydney.
The good thing about cruising at holiday time is that the boat ain't full of OAPs waiting to pop their corks or looking for a senior fling.
The bad thing is that there's plenty of families & their offspring.
Gone are the days when you could actually bring the bad behaviour to the attention of the parents, & a clip around the ears would resolve the issue. Now days imps can literally get away with murder because touching them will be a breach of universal law. Actions don't matter & consequences of bad actions ain't a thing to these entitled little toads.
Anyways, hopefully it'll be a fair & fun time full of new experiences, and a break to relax from an interesting work year.
Happy holidays to all. If you're not holidaying then make the most of whatever you're planning to do.
Thoughts & musings where a middle-aged Kiwi male who changed his job and whatever happens next.

Nearly a year since last post...
and nothing much has changed apart from every workmate in my team over the last nearly 4 years.
This will be a ramble of mixed words, experiences & whatevers over that time.
4 years. After choosing to change from the easy stuff that would come to an end to got to the hard stuff which just about killed my brain I've actually survived 4 years. FFS.
I've been pretty much stagnant since the last blog because I've put too much effort into doing work to my own perfectionist standards & not enough into the rest of life. I literally cannot think of what I've achieved in both work & home place over that time.
The short sharp learning lesson is that you can't please all of the people of the time & when you do apparently your efforts are not always appreciated. Aim to be average unless you can constantly be outstanding.
Your are your ruler of your destiny & life is what you make of it.
Surround yourself with situations & people you want to bring goodness to you life, BUT do not be afraid to ask for help.
Enough waffle. Eff knows how long I'll leave this up after I post it.
