Melbourne Trip

As you can see there hasn’t been a post for the last few days. Thats because I’ve been in Melbourne. It was the horse race that stops a nation week. So the town had a nice vibe about it.

Walk Against Warming – Sydney

Wow, so 12,000 turned out in Sydney for this and I thought there would be about 200. If I had to get McDonalds on the way because I was hungry does this make me negate my walking?

Selling Paper

Two dollars is still two dollars (for the paper).

Grim Reaper

Got to love it when people go to this much trouble

All the People

This is probably 200 of the 12,000

Microsoft and OSYCI

Well I went to the Microsoft Partner Road Show (01/11/2006). These things can be a drag. This was ok. Microsoft have a new marketing system for it’s partners to get Vista in the work place. It’s called OSYCI and you can find out about it here www.microsoftio.com

Raspberry Coca-Cola

This has to be the best Coke one can drink. And to be found only in NZ (New Zealand).

Raspberry Coca Cola

Coca-Cola Raspberry was a Coca-Cola drink with a raspberry flavour that was sold in New Zealand on a trial basis. A Diet Coke Raspberry version was also sold. Both were first introduced on June 1, 2005 and had been discontinued by the end of the year.

Raspberry was the third flavour added to original Coke in New Zealand. the others are vanilla coke and cherry coke. Raspberry Coke was initially posted on US auction sites, with bottles selling in the $10 US dollar range. It is now generally no longer available and would be considered extremely rare and collectable. As of May 2008[update], remaining supplies have been exhausted and are not available for sale via online auctions or retail outlets. The only remaining place that Coca-Cola Raspberry can be found is in Coca-Cola’s new line of Touch Screen vending machines called Freestyle found in select Jack in the Box and Pei Wei Asian Diner stores in the US.

Would be cool if someone would let me know if you can get it at the above locations.
