Food Safety at School

Times are slowly changing. I remember as a child taking my sandwich to school with ham, salami or cheese on it. In Wagga, the summer days would easily hit 35°C most days. Our school bags were nice little incubators. Now my children have their insulated lunch bags, with ice packs, and their bags are kept […]

Food Safety At Home

Here’s a simple question – how are the principles that are enforced on business applied in my own home? Potentially hazardous food must be stored below 5°C: Given that most domestic fridges don’t have a temperature display, then the answer will be “probably”. Since I have the luxury of selling temperature loggers, I can know […]

Google proves that people don’t care as much as you

It’s important to me. And it’s important to you. Or it should be. But Google has shown me that it isn’t. Well, to most of you. I know there are a few exceptions. And to make it even worse, I suspect that those exceptions are people like me working out who else cares. Let me […]

Why I hate Windows 8

Okay, hate is a strong word, but still – why are we being forced to use a tablet interface if we have a big screen, keyboard and mouse?

Why I hate the Ribbon control

I am writing a new program. I have the choice of using either the old style of menu and toolbars, or make my software look modern and use a ribbon control. As far as I can tell, the only advantage the ribbon control offers is that it makes my software look modern. In theory, ribbon […]

The World’s Dumbest Hand Washing Sign

This hand washing sign was unbelievable. In fact, you have to read it twice to fully appreciate what they are saying. Don’t get me wrong. I am all for signs about washing hands. I sell Glitterbug for hand washing training. But this sign was just too good to be true: In case you missed it […]
