A while back, Wilko and I were on by ourselves and decided to have some fun with our managers toy Customs dog. What else could we do but :

Wizz Fizz, Lollies, Grass Clippings a syringe from the chemist, home made bong, some beer bottles courtesy of Wilko, a mirror & razor blade and a spoon. Totally worth it when Christine arrived into work for the day. I think that`s all the blogs I had to put up for now, will update with Sydney Trip stuff over the next couple of days. Bye.

Hi All thought I’d write a blog entry for our flash new blog.

Its been awhile since I updated sorry, I keep meaning to update my blog I swear!!!

So we had a good Easter weekend, best part for me is that Daniel is now rotating into weekends off so I got to spend Friday and Saturday with him )

Our Easter long weekend started with a trip to the circus Stardust Circus last Thursday  night. I tried to upload a photo that Daniel took but couldn’t get it to work?!?!?!

(Phroghollow Edit : I could teeheehee)

Anyway, it was a very traditional circus complete with animals, I liked it even though it was very corny!! I think Daniel got a laugh or two out of it as well.

Friday we painted, so over painting in fact we’ve decided that its time to pay someone to do it for us!! We’ve still got the lounge, DVD room, laundry, stairwell, hall way and 2 more bedrooms to go!!

Saturday we went car shopping, Daniel is still trying to convince me to go for Toyota Hilux, I have agreed to test drive one… So this Saturday we will hopefully going for a test drive.

Sunday, Daniel had to go back to work but I spent the day down at Mum and Dad’s with the family, it was a really good day lots of alcohol was consumed unfortunately not by me though as I had to drive ( I did however enjoy lots of chocolate, I now just have to work it all off at the gym.

Monday was a quiet day, Daniel went to work, I went to the gym I did an extra 10mins cardio and double weights, was wrecked for the rest of the day )

So that was our Easter, we haven’t really been up to much else we did go and see Alice in Wonderland a couple of weeks ago, both really enjoyed it. We also went and saw the French Masters Exhibit at the National Gallery, Daniel brought me a print of my favourite Van Gough painting which I will one day have framed.

I also attempted to get an iPhone the other week, except stoopid Optus wouldn’t let me upgrade my plan with out paying termination fees so I have to wait another 12 months, stoopid Optus.

Ellie and Azrael are both good, Ellie continues to wrap Daniel around her paw, she climbs on to his lap of an evening and lays her head on his chest and gives him the cutest puppy dog look ) Azrael is still very cute as well, still dragging his blankie all over the house, my friend Jacqui is knitting him a new one cause the old one is slowly falling apart.

So that all from the Queanbeyan connection, hope everyone is well!!

Well, i`m on my days off again, just about to go pick Paul up, thought i`d hit the blog first.
Hasn`t been too interesting here, Car still p*ssing me off, still looking at leasing but trying to hold off till next year. Went and saw My Sisters Keeper at the movies, wasn`t that impressed, but Adele enjoyed it so it was worth it.

Intersting stuff:
History of Johnny Walker. I found it intersting anyway :

I Want One Of These :
Cheese Board in the form of a mouse trap :

These are cool, I can`t think of a use for them straight of the top of my head but anyway :

To Order Click the pic :
This is sooo bad, how can you eat this :
Deep Fried Butter.

Anyway, brief entry but i`m outta here. Bye.

I`ve been asked to do this countless times so here it is :

What have I been up to, well for the last 4 days I`ve had a cold.
Today I went to the Motor Registry and registered the cars. Both of them. I did the easy bit, Adele arranged all the inspections etc required to get them registered, all this has made me go well why don`t we lease a car? gonna look into it next time they have the option at work.

Before that I was doing a week of Cisco ICND1 training which when I do my test and pass it I`ll have a qualification, so i`ll have a piece of paper that says I actually know what I`m talking about for once. Then it`s ICND2 training at some stage. Which means i`ll have my CCNA. Yay. Then at some stage we`re doing Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician(MCDST) so more qualifications. Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) is also looming in the distance. So i`ll do it if work pays for it.

Now not much else been happening, it`s Cold. Mary, Al, Clare and Shane can all atest to this after coming for Clare`s admission to the courts as a Solicitor/Barrister, i`m probably getting this all wrong anyway.

Anyway, what has been amusing me : The Sunjar :
How to Peel An Egg Quickly :

- Damn have to make sure Adele watches that one for my next egg in a cup.

How to Peel a Banana Easily :

- Who knew I`d been doing it wrong all these years.

Alice & Kev :
With the release of Sims 3 comes this blog, it`s basically a story about 2 homeless Sims. It`s quite amusing and has been keeping me coming back for a daily dose :
Alice & Kev

And finally a Swine Flu pic :
So that`s about it really. Bye.

It`s been very quiet since I uploaded the video below. Well i`m now finished uploading all the photo`s I have from Clare`s Wedding, anyone interested in sending me more photo`s to include in Clare and Shane`s online Album, let me know.

I`ve started uploading our other photo`s, check out the collections section for further collections, such as our wedding, our honeymoon(minus certain photo`s Oh Yeah), i`m going to be marking some of the photo`s as invitation only, so I`ve sent invite`s to family, if I forgot you email me and i`ll invite you in.

Well, i`m kinda not moving much at the moment due to my back, i`m going to take some more drugs now, catch you all later. Bye.

Well it`s been a busy day, everyone should be following my twitter now if not :
So in the end, the Wedding band Tattoo has been called off due to common sense, basically the Tattoo shop was willing to do it, however they stress that the hand loses more skin cells than any other part of the body and it would need touching up very quickly, so onto my Misty Tattoo, i`m going to speak to Tattoo Power in North Lyneham tomorrow.
This is what i`m using as a base for it, I want to see what they can actually do before I get it though.

Busy day anyway, I have ordered a Parallel Port Cable for my new PC so we can again use the Brother laser printer and print stuff off the PC again. We picked up Azrael the little feral, he didn`t like the trip home. But is now prowling the neighborhood, we expect him home around 6am tomorrow morning realistically. He appears to have been spoilt by Granny Rob and Grandpa Pauly(Mwahahaha). He even got our postcard from North Stradbroke Island we sent.

After we picked the boy up, I then spent alot of the day setting up my Optus Online account so I can review my phone usage on the net, I also hooked up with the netbanking so I can pay my credit card off on-line, way cool.

We then fronted to Westpac to try and resolve Adele`s Credit Card issue and get a Credit Card issued in her married name(See Clare this stuff takes forever), they now reckon it`ll be here shortly(we`ll believe it when its in our hands). Then some grocery shopping, we found some low carb flat bread @ 15.8g of Carbs per tortilla $4.49, and we bought some poppadoms @ 4.3g of Carbs per poppadom to try as chips with some dip and finally home at which point my back has gone again and i’m hopped up on Voltaren and Panadol.

Now, in yesterday`s post I mentioned Twitterfeed I`m using it to feed my blog updates through to Twitter, so those of you with a blog that want to let everyone know through Twitter when you`ve updated, head over and set up an account, it can poll your RSS feed every 30 mins to check for updates.

I`m going to be burning Clare`s Wedding Photo`s to DVD`s tomorrow, so if you want a set sent to you, Leave a comment in the comments section and i`ll burn you a copy off and send it, I may need to call to get address details.

Alright, Night all. Bye.

Just a random thought for the day :

Something i`ve noticed when watching pretty much any Drama….well I suppose any Tv show that requires a villain or fall guy is that the most well known guest star is generally the person who did it. Basically if the show you are watching has a character that is not normally a re-curring character that is played by an actor that you are sitting there thinking what do I know that person from, then you will find that most of the time the villain is the character played by that actor.

Reasoning behind this appears to be that the day to day villain is generally required to deliver lines and acting that is above the norm for your everyday “extra” or sub-par wannabe actor, so basically it requires an actor that has generally proven themselves in a speaking role previously, i`m not saying every villain is a well known actor{i.e a well know A-List Actor), it is just usually a case of that actor looking familiar from somewhere.

Anyway that`s my theory it seems to work, Adele and I have tested this on Criminal Minds, Bones, NCIS and a few other shows, it doesn`t always work as we have not seen every show on the planet, but generally if you look at imdb after a show is over and look at the credits for the main villain they will have had some part in a show that required some lines or acting to be delivered.

Well it`s been a plethora(Jefe, do you know what a plethora is?) of posts today but I think that`s it for the day. Bye.

So first day off, as usual, my body doesn`t know what day it is, so I was up most of last night and then slept all morning, I got kinda creative and burnt a whole heap of disc`s for people Adele will be sending them tomorrow.

Big thankyou to Nat for her artwork, which you can see on Adele`s blog. It was way cool, It even made me watch Kung Fu Panda again.

Tomorrow, I`m going to see if I can do some gardening, the side of the house looks like a jungle, but a jungle made out of thistle`s so its on with the gloves and see if I can pull them out, it all depends on what the weather is like tomorrow, if it`s too hot it`ll be put off till a more convenient time.

I`ve been carbo loading so I can stock up for our Celebrity Slim onslaught. Had an all carb lunch, Adele made me have veggies for tonight, I plan to have carbs for lunch tomorrow, and then we`re having a BBQ tomorrow night.

That`s about it, the little hairball was most upset when he couldn`t go out this afternoon, and we`ve been getting Large Hailstone Warnings on the TV, but it seems pretty quiet now.

Alrighty then. Bye.
