NZCC 2013 Blog Challenge Day 8 – Drinks
The great thing about working in cafe bars is the smell of freshly brewed coffee – especially if it’s mine!

| “I believe humans get a lot done, not because we’re smart, but because we have thumbs so we can make coffee.” – Flash Rosenberg |
As Carly Simon said, “I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee.”

NZCC 2013 Blog Challenge Day 5 – Instagram
One photo with the description of where the image was taken and what filters and frames were used.
I’m actually not a huge fan of Instagram, as my phone has all sorts of filters and frames that let me have just as much fun with less hassle and no cropping. Here’s an Instagram of our 1953 Wurlitzer and a standard android filter for comparison:

NZCC 2013 Blog Challenge Day 4 – Childhood Memory
0800 Jukebox is a family business, starting with arcade machines in Hawera over 30 years ago. We’ve since grown to include party jukeboxes and professional music systems, but my favourite childhood memories are of growing up in the arcade (yes, it was awesome!).
A childhood surrounded by arcade machines has led to my own basement full of games and I’ve recently acquired Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Clocking this game over and over again with my brother is one of my best childhood memories, and I’m looking forward to sharing it with my kids – I may even let them win!
