Well ok, so I've got a thing for maps. You have to at least admit that having all those little pockets of bushland drawn in makes the map look seriously cool (view through osmarender).

Studying via correspondence is having a very positive effect on the state of my local area. I read notes online for an hour, then since I'm already at the computer switching over to an hour of mapping is a logical next activity.

I need to obtain a cheap P&S camera so that street names can be easily collected while cycling. Along with post boxes, public phones, fast food joints, petrol stations, traffic lights, park names...um...wow, at least there's still a lot to do.

In the next week I hope to have an OSM themed geocache planted somewhere. Maybe put a cheap micro SD card in there with OSM pre-loaded as a FTF prize.
