The Daily Colonist, October 1–31, 1915

Sat, 2015/11/07 - 2:39pm

#dailycolonist1915 #WWI - The news out of Victoria, British Columbia, 100 years ago:

Drug runners, whalers, pirates, propaganda, protests, Zeppelin attacks, giant telescopes, darkest Africa, Hallowe'en haunted houses, murder and atrocities are just a few of the things I've picked out from October 1915.


A line was crossed today: unbidden and without visible sign of injury, a courtesy seat was sacrificed to me on the #bus this morning.

Got my vote on this morning, and have this song stuck in my head for some reason ;-)

In an effort to catch up to being exactly one hundred years ago, this update covers just over a month. There is a lot in this update even though I restricted myself to just one article per day.


More on this later, but it was confirmed today that I will be the #VALT2015 Look Book Photographer.

Found a 75 cm Lastolite collapsable white/silver reflector on the way home yesterday. #score

[Gothic BC] Site update: Blowing out the Cobwebs

Thu, 2015/09/17 - 12:23pm

Haven't done a site update for few months. I've kind of forgotten some of the things I have fixed. There have been tweaks to the automatic feeds out to social media. I've fixed up the inactive user maintenance and added some additional hoops to trip up spambots and some other back-end stuff that probably only I ever noticed anyway.
