Aussie Geek Podcast #045 :: Yes Another We are Back Show!
Yes we have been absent without a letter from the teacher. But we are here now! All is explained in this episode of the AGP.
I should also apologize for not getting the show out a tad sooner as this show is obviously older than the post. Truth is that Dave has had the week from hell. The fridge broke down, the washing machine gave up for good and we dealt with a very sick dog. Unfortunately for our family we lost our dear pet Tess during emergency surgery. That just topped off a shit week. The family are all OK, even the kids but a pretty tough ride for everyone.
That said, no more excuses, here is the show…
