Australia: The Country
I figured it was time for me to write a 'proper' post (i.e. not a sarcastic quickie about Stargate Atlantis), therefore I present my master plan checklist for running away to Australia:

Radio recommendations
Does anyone out there listen to the radio on the Internet? If so, got any recommendations for me? I'm not fussy about country - if anything, I'm particularly interested in non-British stations just for the joy of seeing (well, hearing) how other countries do things, report the news, hearing a different selection of music and so on.

Video game stuff
First with the Stargate-relevant bit: apparently the closed beta for the Stargate MMO(RPG?), 'Stargate Worlds', launches on October the 15th and there's still time to register if you're into that sort of thing. I'm holding off because I suspect my PC won't manage it, but it appears from screenshots that you can play as/against (I'm not sure, I've ( Read more... )
