2010 March | A bit of this and a bit of that

Meeting the family

We’re meeting up with some family over Easter, and it should be fun to spend some time showing off the kids and letting them play with cousins. We’re meeting in London and Randolph and Joanne are flying up from Malta to be with us. Should be great fun and I’m sure they’ll love the twins…

Fridge needs a service

Got a letter in the post yesterday, letting us know that our Samsung fridge/freezer is due an service. It’s a free service by Samsung and I was a bit surprised as we don’t have an extended service plan and so weren’t expecting contact from the company. We quite like our fridge/freeze, it’s an American style…

What’s in the medicine cabinet?

As part of our Spring Clean, one of the places that really needed a clean out what the medicine cabinet. You know how it is, you start with an immaculate medicine cabinet, then you grab something because you need it and chuck the packet back in. Before you know it the cabinet is one big…

Bit of a spring clean

Image via Wikipedia Isn’t it funny how Spring comes along and you feel the need to clean up. I’ve already cleaned up my desk at work and yesterday was sorting out some of the accumulated junk that I’m sure I would never need. It’s funny how you tend to put things aside sometimes on the…

More cleaning – get that sweat going

I suppose the great thing about cleaning is that it’s one way to get your daily exercise regimen. It’s amazing how you use parts of your body you never knew you had when you’re half in a cupboard trying to clean old junk out. My diet should get a boost from this. I’m doing the…

Should I be here?

Yes, I know .. if you’re been following my blog posts I should be really cleaning the house, but I’m blogging instead! Thing is, I always find the best way to relieve boredom is to puncture what you’re doing by doing something totally different. The great thing about that is that you don’t really feel…

Day 1 of the new diet

Hmm .. I keep blogging about first days don’t I? Well, I’ve decided to kick the diet up a notch and have paid attention to what I was eating today. Breakfast and lunch were pretty good, but we did end up at the chippie for dinner. I had half a deep friend fish, a jacket…

Off to the UK for Easter

I`m sitting on my sofa watching Disney Channel with Arthur and thinking about our forthcoming trip to the UK. You see, we have a 4 hour drive and it`s going to be interesting keeping him busy through the voyage. The problem is that we have 2 six month old babies so our attention is probably…

New T-shirt – by Unisys

Image via Wikipedia We had a clean out at the office today and one of my buddies, who works for Unisys, had some shirts he was giving away. So now I have a new XXL Unisys polo shirt. I do like collecting promotional products from different companies, even though I don’t always make use of…

Mortgage up for renewal

photo credit: Stuart Conner We’ve had a great mortgage so far, paying an interest rate of just under 1%. It was a tracker mortgage, and with the Bank of England interest rate dropping to 0.5% everything was nice and bright. The only problem is that those low mortgage were a thing of the past, so…
