I grew up in St Kilda, Melbourne we lived there till the 80’s. What was St Kilda like well it was totally different. Rough, fast and chaos I was only young and grew up in one of the roughest area around Melbourne. My parents had a mini supermarket in fitzroy st across the road from all the high rise apartment/ commission complex, me and my younger brother and sister seen alot of things that you’d wish young children would never experience. From stabbings to shootings it was ful on back in the early 80’s. Bojangles night club was the roughest area lucky we were too young to mingle there.
Luna Park was a 5 min drive away and dad use to take us down every now and then, st Kilda beach was a beautiful place to play and fish also.
We attendant the St Kilda Primary school a historicle landmark it was only 1 block away from were we use to live above mum and dad’s business. I drove down to Melbourne a few weeks ago and by golly  things have changed for the better.  St Kilda is a mega tourist place now, eateries everywhere the beach cleaner. It bought a few good memories back when we use to live here 25 odd yeas ago. My god time flys.. To be continued……

Web Hosting refers to services that provide space for users to store their website content. Or Website information such as images, video, or any other content accessible through the Web  that needs to be stored on a computer server located in a secure and climate controlled environment that is permanently connected to the internet through high speed data lines. This server space is referred to as Web Hosting.
Without somewhere to host a website, there is no website. Web hosting allows users to store their website contents in a safe managed space.

Obtaining Hosting.
Web hosting is often provided as part of a general Internet access plan; there are many free and paid providers offering these types of web hosting. I use godaddy and have found them good for what my needs are.
A customer needs to evaluate the requirements of the application to choose what kind of hosting to use. Such considerations include database server software, scripting software, and Operating system.

Most hosting providers provide Linux-based web hosting which offers a wide range of different software. The web hosting client may want to have other services, such as email for their business domain, databases or multimedia services. A customer may also choose Windows as the hosting platform. There are a lot of Web hosting packages often include a
Web Content Management System, so the end-user does not have to worry about the more technical aspects.

Domain Name Registrations.
Before you can setup a presence on the internet, you need an easy way for people to find you.
This is done by registering and using your own domain name. Be careful – There are certain things to look out for when registering a domain name! even though it is relatively cheap, a domain name can become very valuable once your business grows, so put the correct emphasis on it now!
Once you’ve registered your domain and your site is up and running. It is something you generally forget about when it is working…even though it may be registered incorrectly.

Email Accounts.
Far too often businesses use a generic email address from one of the free providers out there. This is fine for personal email, but for a business it’s not good enough!
And the funny thing is, the proper email address wouldn’t cost a cent more than is already being paid.  Because the domain name is already registered and their website is also already active using their Website Hosting package, so why not take advantage of this.

We were of on a normal holiday as a family, mum, dad and 3 children this time it was different. We ended up staying for 4 whole years opposed to the 3 month stays we use to have.

Being only young 12yrs old I was excited, we attendant schooling in Patra were we lived, me parents had a few dramas enroll ing us in school being Australians we weren’t allowed to do schooling unless me parents made as duel citizens. This sounded all good and was easy but dramas started later on in live with national service.

Schooling was great there it only consisted of 4 hours a day in the late arvo, sport was huge there also, I competed in javelin, shot put, hurdles, swimming, long pole, sprint which I was no good at at marathon running which suited me better distances over 10km up to 40km. Not like here in Australia were sport is pretty basic in Greece sport was huge to participate and compete, schooling was great also even tho it was 4 hours a day it was advanced schooling as when we returned to Australia I missed a year 7 and went to year 8 straight up. I thought wow that’s great.

To be continued.

Very humid place like always we use to frequent Singapore en route to Europe every few years this time in the late 80’s while still young we staying for 2 weeks at the Merchant Court (Swisotel) on Clarke Quaay, the pool area is amazing and location excellent.

A very nice place to visit plenty of attractions and history close by

Singapore National Museum
There are always interesting international exhibitions going on, with a small section bringing the traveling exhibition to a local context. In the exhibition on treasures from Ukraine, there is a bit at the end describing the importance of gold in Asian cultures as well. A great place to hide from the humid weather also.

Singapore Zoo
A marvelous place when we visited. I recall many innovative designs in terms of how the space was laid out. There are very few ‘cages’ and you often look down on the dangerous animals in a way that seems like you are right there. Elephant rides were a real treat and I also remember an exotic bird literally sitting on a tree in the middle of the pedestrian path. Ground-breaking stuff. A beautiful place.

I always travel to the Philippines the last few years via Singapore I like the new airport Changai Aiport, maybe in the near future will stay for a week or 2 now as I’ve grown up abit, can get around and visit places of interest as back in the 80’s we were only children.
