Adrian Tritschler's stuff
My website, an agglomerative mess, probably half-eaten by a grue

Another sunny spring afternoon, plenty of people out and about as the playgrounds are now open and we’re allowed out for two hours now. No bunyips
Sunny Sunday afternoon, parks and paths packed, roads deserted, bike is falling apart, entire drive train is well past replacement date
Rainy Saturday morning shopping; bacon, mussels, chicken & bread. No candlesticks
Overcast, 15°C, Feels like 15°C, Humidity 62%, Wind 4m/s from N - by Klimat.app
Up the creek, lots of frogs, then home view an architectural smorgasboard of Jordanville’s houses. Eek, what’s that, an o-Bike has resurfaced in Oakleigh

Warm sunny afternoon, paths and parks are packed. Met the bloke who sleeps rough in the wetlands park & the bird hide full of smoking teens again. Nearly got wrapped in someone’s big-game fishing dog lead, hate those things

Around an uninspiring loop went an uninspired rider

Sundown bunyip hunting, zoom decompressing, brain recharging ride
Third time in a week that I visit and the bird hide in Glen Iris wetlands is full of kids smoking, it’ll be full of their fag packets when I go past next time… I just know it
Gently rolling afternoon ride, trying hard not to exacerbate painful spasming ITB.
Parks & paths are packed, masks, mostly not. Sunny day, I think people have run out of care factor

Butcher, fish shop, baker, then home for breakfast. 2.2km of chores

Clipped at lights by motorist ignoring “Forward bike box” on Belgrave rd then 10min later knocked off bike on #Djerringtrail by motorist ignoring stop sign and tearing out of railway car park, how’s your Friday going? Arse hurts, wrist hurts, knee hurts. Bloody Falcons, bloody Audis, bloody drivers. Oh well, at least the post clipping adrenalin resulted in a PR along Murrumbeena road

I think that’s the full circle of the bounday done, or at least as close as you can get riding on the roads inside.

Warm and windy with wandering whatsits on the path

Nearly bit off more than I could chew; just over my hour and missing a turn, just outside my bounday. Definitely unexplored territory

Surprisingly chilly

No, not even abstract strava art

Windy, sunny, many many people, and the first heart-stopping magpie swoop of the season.

Saturday morning shopping, fish for dinner & bread for breakfast

Fantastic spring weather, every woman and her dog out for a walk or a run or a … step straight off the footpath in front of me, just like yesterday

There’s not much more I can add to who I am.
Vanity site? Technology experiment? Learning tool? Blog? Journal? Diary? Photo album? I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you…
I experiment. I play. I write and I take pictures. Some of the site is organised around topics, other parts are organized by date, then there’s always the cross-references between them.
Its all been here a fairly long time. Like the papers on my desk, or the books on the bedside table, the pile just grew… and it all grew without much plan or structure. I try not to break URLs, so historical oddities abound.
Long ago it started as a learning experiment with a few static HTML pages, then I added a bit of server-side includes and some very ugly PHP. A hand-built journal/blog on top of that PHP, then a few experiments in moving to various static publishing systems. I’ve never wanted a database-based blogging engine, so over the years I’ve tried PHP, nanoblogger, emacs-muse, silkpage and docbook before settling on Emacs Org mode for writing and jekyll for publishing. But the itch remained… I never really liked jekyll and the ruby underneath always seemed so much black magic. So now the latest incarnation is Org mode and hugo.
