About Peter

I'm an Australian, based in the Washington, DC, area of the United States. I spend a lot of time there with Jasmine, Australia's best-known speedsolver of the Rubik's Cube. Prior to the US, Jasmine and I were based in London, UK. We have also lived previously in the United States and Australia.

I have worked for an Australian business rules and compliance company since 1999 in Australia, the US and the UK. I have also lectured in IT and Law related topics at King's College, London, and at The Australian National University.

I have some more information and a list of publications available (pop-up window).

So many cubers!

I just had a look at Jasmine's Beginner Solution to the Rubik's Cube. I still feel like I should make the effort to learn her cube solution properly at some point (I can only partially solve the cube at present). I was impressed to see that Jasmine has had 53,909 hits to the Beginner's Solution... so many cubers!

Abandoned stations of the London Underground

Jasmine, Doug (who was visiting Jasmine and me for the weekend from Cambridge) and I had a discussion earlier today (Sunday, 22 May, UK time) about abandoned stations on the London Underground rail network. After Doug left us to return to Cambridge, I found this interesting website on the topic of abandoned stations.

Update on London greenery

Inspired (well, I was anyway) by the news that 30% of London is occupied by green space, Jasmine and I went for a walk to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens today. The gardens there are looking much better than a few months ago -- because now there are leaves!

I am also enjoying the late sunlight here. Sunset today (Sunday, 22 May, in the UK) is not till 8:54 p.m. And although there are lots of grey patches during the day, there are also some good patches of sun.
