Sometimes it better not to go out at lunch

Hope you are having a good Thursday - my car just got rear ended by the personal trainer and her van so mine could be going better- but no major harm done.

Sydney by Jack - 15/04/09 to 18/04/09

We went to sydney.
It was our first time.

We went to the opera house and some art galleries.
The opera house has shell shapes.

Our hotel had a spa and pool on top of our roof.
We could see the opera house and harbour bridge from it.

We went to luna park.
It was fun.

We went to the imax theatre and saw monsters vs aliens 3d.
We went to the aquarium we saw sharks and dugongs.

It was a good holiday.

Any other early adoptors out there?

Anyone out there twittering yet? I just signed up for twitter - more for work than family and friends but if any of our mates who 1. read our blog and/ or 2. want to twitter - let me know.

Another bit of technology we dont actually need, perhaps. Another log in to remember definately. But what they hey!

Check out the blog again soon - Jacks going to be updating it on our recent trip to Sydney......

I am so ready to swear....

..the cause...ants, ants, ants - parked my car in my allocated space at work this morning but a leaf from a nearby plant was touching the bonnet so by lunchtime my car was overrun by black ants and I mean overrun - whatever it is about the smell, taste whatever they were all over it.

Luckily one of my work neighbours came and told me - some had got inside but they were on the outside mostly but inside the lights, all over the boot and I now feel like I am crawling.....

Poured lots of water from the bottles we keep in the car so I could get in, drove to the nearest woolies and bought two cans of insect spray - zapped the place inside and out but what I really, really want and need is a downpour - its done nothing but rain for a whole week and now when I need it - nothing!!!

So between the bird poo from the lorakeets, the flowers from the tree above the car that the lorakeets eat the fruit from and having to park right next to a grape vine so the other car can get out from their side, I've had enough - I am going to park in the front, on the road - its just not worth it.

Ahhhhhh!!!!!!! Yuck - grrr!!!!!

TV superstar...well not really

Our company has done a TV email - trying to use a bit of viral marketing - they needed some rent a crowd so I do appear in this albeit briefly but I am putting this on here so you can see my boss - Gerry - and my offices, sort of the board room and the stairway anyway - but there you go. www.vmbiz.com.au/intercept.html

Feel free to forward it on, if you want, lets see if it can turn into one of those emails that goes round the world 500 times but just without the threatening pass this onto 200 friends or your budgie is toast message :-)

Only 4 days this week and then we are off for 10 whole days - with 4 of them going to be in Sydney - we have heard the stories and hype about Sydney so we are going to make up our own minds....happy easter and stuff yourselves silly with unhealthly things....
