And I can't forget the Schweeb, in (New Zealand). A human-powered pod-monorail!

Post about my recent trip to Canberra, thank you to NeSI for funding me. It was a great conference, but makes me want to realize how to get genomics/bioinfo into the era of heavy computing. We are so frequently memory limited rather than CPU limited.

There's many a fan of the abandoned / ruin buildings and I totally get it. Places of history, nostalgia, want and dreams long gone.

If these walls could talk etc etc etc

A drive along the old SH1, now SH59, between Pukerua Bay and Paekākāriki is always awesome, and now it's a lot safer with a lot less traffic on it.

A storm was raging somewhere and I had to stop to film the angry waves, so much power.

Another request for some subscribers at the Genomics Aotearoa YouTube channel.

Help support 's rapidly growing space and the people that make it happen!

Another one off hand with the phone, a Galaxy A24. They say the best camera is the one you have in your hand which is true but also, you are responsible for what you have in your hand.

Pretty bloody stunning eh ... August 2021.

Sunset view from Tarakena Bay (Wellington, NZ) across to the South Island as someone fishes off the rocks.

Breaker Bay (Wellington) has a tractor parked/abandoned and it's always made me smile when I drove passed it.

So incongruous, but somehow fits.

You'll remember the Moa spotted on the cliffs of, appropriately, Moa Point - well check out the White Rhino!

Across the valley from one promontory to another I spied this rarest of all large mammals. Amazing eh.

You'll have to zoom in the see this magnificent beast in all it's glory, but I think you'll agree it's worth it.

I'm never quite sure what the mountain range is that one can see from the Wellington south coast - quick search and voilà, they are the Kaikoura Mountains - on the left are the Seaward Kaikouras, in the centre is Mount Tapuae-o-Uenuku (9,465 feet), the highest peak of the Inland Kaikouras.

"Women Are Better Than Men"

When it comes to politicians women are mostly better at it than men.

There are, of course, exceptions to disprove the law such as Liz Truss, Judith Collins, Pauline Hanson, and of course Boris Johnson's current wife.

Here's two spectacular wāhine politicians, Jacinda Ardern and Chlöe Swarbrick as depicted in The Backbencher Pub opposite the NZ Parliament.
