March, what a month.


* March has seen us being blessed by having our daughter Bianca, and Alan, and of course Ethan, moving back down to Victoria.

Leo the Burmese cat has also moved in with us, temporarily.

Have a look at his georgeous photos.

* Ethan is growing up, literally before our eyes.

@ 11 weeks, we have seen him grow a total of 18 cms in

length, and packing on a kilo or 2.

Pehaps there will be some more photos coming up soon, but have a look @ his cute "Winter collection" photo, you can tell that his mum has just come down from QLD.

The last few weeks of March is seeing Beau (our oldest son) move into his own home.

* Beau and Jessie will be getting married within the next few weeks,
so this is going to be really exciting for our fam. (photos coming soon)

April Fool's day is seeing us participate in Beau's bucks turn. Something about Laser shootem up and Striker bowling. Thanks to Jessie's brother Jacob, who happens to be the Best man.

My Computer

My Compaq Presario was playing up.
The USB ports rolled over and gave up the ghost.
After many calls to HP, (knowing that it was a Hardware issue) I finally convinced them that someone needed to physically look at the laptop.
On Friday, 2nd February, I was told that there is a company called NCSS in Victoria, that will be able to fix my computer for me.

Beauty, I will personally drop it off so that it will be fixed pronto.

The charming lady at NCSS told the people before me and then myself, that it will take 5-10 working days to repair.

Good, I am going interstate the next day for a week, then a week at home without the computer, and then I will be back into the swing of things.

Today is day number 29 working days since I dropped off my computer and still no phone call from NCSS to say that it is ready.

I've had to review what I had previously posted here, so I've have to be careful.

So be aware, avoid both of these companies, they will let you down, unless you want to be dissappointed.
