Nice ass!

On the 24th to the 25th of June, me and Debbie drove from Gatteo Mare to Varese, and back - 762,9 km (474 miles), consuming 76,6 liters (21.4 gallons) of fuel. Not bad for a 10 year old Northstar! 10 km per liter or 22,15 mpg. The way there is 99% highway, and I kept the speed at 130 km/h (80 mph) as much as possible...

What I've been up to lately

The last month has been a lot of fun. It all started with PHPday in Rimini on the 23rd and 24th of May. I had two collegues come down from Norway, and we had a great time. The conference was mostly in italian, so they had a bit of trouble, but the Symfony workshop with Fabien Potencier, we all enjoyed. Teleperformance was sponsoring the event, and it was money well spent. Great work from fullo, tassoman, and the rest of the crew. We also had two great evenings with everyone, the first at the Bounty, and the second at a Piadina place (forget the name).

In June, as always, I went to Sweden Rock Festival, for a healty dose of metal! Highlights this year for Testament, Judas Priest, Carcass, Whitesnake and Tesla. Maybe not the greatest lineup for me this year, but maybe next year.
