The Weekend Pickup Blog

It’s been a rather hectic couple of weeks in Brisbane.  I’d like to say its due to some sort of active social life but mostly, I think me and Jen have been eating out at restaurants a lot.  We’ve become so involved with wining and dining around Brisbane that we’re thinking of making a hobby out of it and keeping ...

5 Second Review: Moon

Duncan Jones’ debut film Moon is one of the best surprises of the year.  The aesthetic of the film reminds me a lot of classic Seventies and Eighties sci-fi films where there was a greater sense of physicality and there isn’t the feeling of hollowness you can sometimes get when a production gets overreliant on computer effects.  Sam Rockwell is ...

The last time ...

The FAT Website Show – An Arab Reads The Broons

An unexpected pleasure in the past six weeks was the opportunity to meet Mike’s OCD music-obsessive Egyptian friend Adham who also travelled from Dubai to visit Australia.  During Mike and Matt’s return leg to Brisbane, Adham came along and hung out with us for a few days.  He was a lovely guy.  He seemed very earnest and happy to absorb ...

A career change apparently

Today our office got word that we’re being closed down and the main onshore office will be established in Tasmania.  Fortunately, there’s plenty of forewarning:  It won’t be until around this time next year.  It was still very sad to hear though.  I’ve worked at the same company now for five years and have many close friends in the office.  ...
