Wellington Phoenix (2) : Newcastle Jets (1) – VAR at it again in scrappy affair
The referee performance was an absolute joke…and the VAR just made it worse.

Jetstar can be so frustrating, because they use the automated check-in machines in Brisbane, there’s no ability for human intervention to check you in even just 5 minutes early.
It makes no sense at all, wouldn’t it be better to check me in 5 minutes early to keep things flowing along, rather than banking people up and have them standing around blocking doorways and what not…

Didn’t bother waking up early this morning for the Apple Keynote, so much information has been leaked over the past month about the new phones that it really wasn’t worth the effort. That said, the new iPhone XS’s are nice, and I will be upgrading to one as soon as they’re available. 🍎📱

The Secret To Getting Great Sleep Is…Socks
Of course studies on the positive effects of bed socks have focused on cool, winter environments
Personally, I hate wearing socks to bed, and if I do, I don’t sleep very well at all. The part of Australia that I live in doesn’t get that cold in winter, but it does get pretty warm and sticky in summer, and wearing socks to bed would only exacerbate the problem.
The actual secret to great sleep is to test out what actually works for you, track your sleep, do a little research on different “methods” of getting good sleep, and experiment with them till you find what works well for you.
I get my best sleep by not drinking alcohol after 4-5pm, walking more than 6,000 steps in a day, and by having a vape before bed. Following this routine, and being in bed before 11pm, I can pretty much guarantee an 8 hour sleep, with a solid 2 hour block of deep sleep.
