Yesterday I received a phone call to say that I had won the Kodak Easyshare printer, ink and paper pack.  I just wanted to say THANKYOU !!

Our next door neighbours have several (can’t quite work out how many) teenage children.  Some of the said children live in their garage, and recently a delapidated caravan was towed into their yard to house more of them.  They own their house and we own ours…
We *think* that some of the family are drug dealers.  They […]

Hubby and I decided to have a go at taking some photos of the Lunar Eclipse last night. This is the best shot that we got, and it’s not bad given that we don’t have a telescopic lense (we used the 90-300mm lense on my Canon 400D) or tripod.
A shame we didn’t have a play with the […]

My husband had an appointment with a specialist this morning that had been rescheduled at THEIR request.  My husband opted for the first appointment of the day to avoid delays and enable him to get to work as early as possible (he starts work at 7am and it takes him an hour and a half to get […]

I am SO excited…
I received an email today advising me that one of the (5) photos I submitted to the ‘Smile With Centro’ photographic competion has been accepted as one of 20 finalists at my local shopping centre ~ Karingal Hub.
I won’t know until Monday (when I can go and see for myself) which photo […]

…well, I have, just not started a thread.  Anyway, I thought some of you may (or may not) be interested in what’s happening with me.
Well, my baby boy turned ONE (where did the time go?).  Once again I found myself making the obligatory character cake - a job that I actually enjoy and have missed […]

My bank, in all their infinite wisdom, have taken it upon themselves to register me for their Netcode SMS service.  Apparently this is the latest security measure in place for net banking.  WELL…firstly, they didn’t ask my permission (first I knew of it was a letter advising me of the ‘upgrade’), nor did I request […]

HURRAH for the little people !!
Well, it seems that being right and being persistant has paid off !  My ex employer has agreed to a settlement and we do not need to go to the conciliation meeting next Wednesday.
In addition to my Long Service Leave, he has agreed to pay me 5 weeks remuneration for […]

I have made so many phone calls and spent so much time online trying to find the information I need, I thought I should post all my links here to help anyone else who needs them.
