I'm now an MX-5 fan (and owner!)

Bought a 1999 plated MX-5 NB series 2 and haven't looked back!

Superior Images
Because the H3D creates images with higher resolution, superior picture quality, and more pixels per inch, it is the perfect solution for projects requiring super-sized prints. We recently completed a project that involved some stunning images of local landmarks. The final prints were reproduced as six-foot displays. I couldn’t have accomplished this demanding task without the H3D.

Artful dodger...

Something about being a kiwi makes you that bit more resourceful than the average joe in the street.

We live in a 16year old house and some of the original fittings and chattels are showing signs of age. In particular the electrical goods.  For instance the wall oven needed replacing due to broken switches door hinges etc...

I got on to an auction site and scored myself a Westinghouse wall oven  which is 2 years old and labelled "demo" unit.  It had been used but methinks about twice and then only the griller.

Installed it this weekend and it works a treat! Only paid 1/4 of retail price for it. 

Blue sky .....

Something about old and rickity rusting crappy houses that takes me to a place that I have been.
There weren't blue skies then though... heartbreak hotel more like!

Beat the bastards again!

Back from the"other side" - again!

Well, I came home yesterday from hospital where I lost another 7 kilos! Eat your heart out Jenny Craig!
The op was successful I believe - especially since the anesthetist has charged me for 204 minutes ($1800). The op was supposedly only going to take 90 minutes but evidently they found some extra stuff (- which is another story I'll share with you later).


Anyways - it's great to be shuffling around without the colostomy bag!  It'll take me six week to recover from this one so it will give me time to do some serious blogging.
