friends and things

110428_s95_img_3454

the ladies went to a cafe first thing this morning and then esther and kezia both had friends round for the rest of the day.

various lights in the house tripped as a result of the heavy rain so that made us pleased we didn’t buy this house.  although hopefully someone else will!

i got given my ipad at work and had to pose for a photo.  bizarrely though it’s a first generation ipad but they gave me the receipt so i could pay to replace it with a second generation one.  that was going to cost me $160 or something which didn’t go down very well with jane! 

i went by the shop on the way home to understand the options and decided on a more basic second generation version which ends up costing the same (but won’t have 3G).  And it may be a few weeks before i get it as they’ve not got any in stock. 

embarrassingly they’ve put a photo of me with a cheesy smile on our company intranet page so everyone knows i won it now.

and we’ve got this sign outside our house now.  apparently a proper photographer is coming on sunday to take some professional pictures so that’s encouraging.

tonight we watched a couple of episodes of South and now it’s now.
