The new pastor speaks at Connect Church

This morning, Connect Church Bendigo got to meet our new pastor. He is pastor Kerrin Wallis who comes from Roma, in Queensland. He visited us today along with his wife Tegan and new born son Boston. He gave a very good first up sermon. I think he and his wife will fit in very well here.

After the service, we had a pot luck luncheon in the church hall.

Dinner at the RSL

On Tuesday night, BUCO had it's end of year dinner at the Bendigo RSL. The meal was good although not everybody from my workplace turned up. It was the first time I have ever visited the RSL in all my years in Bendigo. Not a bad place generally.

Watchers 9 - days of chaos

Tonight, I watched the DVD watchers 9 - Days of Chaos on my DVD player.

The DVD arrived yesterday from the USA. it is the 9th in the Watchers series by LA Marzulli. It basically goes into end time events from a Christian Biblical point of view. The show is very well put together and well worth watching. LA Marzulli interviews a variety of people who speak on various topics from UFO's to ancient prophecies. Well worth watching.

Spectre

I haven't blogged for a while. There has not been much to comment about really. I have been studying JavaScript which has kept me busy.

So I thought I would give myself a break and go and see Spectre, the new James bond movie.

I thought it was pretty good, generally speaking . Best one since Casino Royale. To be sure, I though it was a bit silly in a few places, but it was pretty good entertainment.

Well worth the price of an admission ticket.

The Digital Show 2015

Today i went down to Melbourne to attend the Digital Show of 2015.

This show is held every 2 years and showcases the latest in digital technology. The show did have some interesting exhibits.

For example, Olympus had a very interesting stand and gave away a cool showbag as well.

A company called Print 2 Metal showed off a cool new product. It lets you print a colour image onto a sheet of aluminium.

But the best part of the show was a Tesla Model S on display. It was a right hand drive model. I got to sit in it. Looks rather cool.

I was disappointed that major companies like Canon and Sony did not have any displays at all. It was not a bad show generally though.

Car fix at Bendigo Mitsubishi

This morning, I had to get up early to take my car to Bendigo Mitsubishi. A couple of days ago I misjudged a three point turn, hit the curb with my left front tire and knocked out some insulation on the tire well. The guts at Bendigo Mitsubishi fixed it up for me in a few hours. It was good to have it fixed up.

Bendigo Mosque protest day

Today, Saturday 10th 2015, a Mosque protest rally was held in Rosalind Park. There were actually two rallies going o. On ewas a small pro mosque rally and the other was a large anti-mosque rally.

The pro mosque supporters were small in numbers.

The police did a good job of keeping them apart.

The anti mosque rally was very vocal but peaceful. The crows was well behaved.
There were about 8 speakers there including Pastor Daniel Nalliah from the Rise up Australia party.
The United patriots front was also there as well.

Overall, it was a hot day but the rally lasted about two hours. I think they all made their point.
