The small things that are nice
Like going in to sleeping 2-year old daughter, finding her upside down in her cot and turning her around... she half opens her eyes, sees it's just me and goes back to sleep in the middle of being manhandled.

Hello Friends!
Hi there, loyal readers.
Sorry about the lack of posting lately, but the things that have been happening in my life are a bit specific to me lately, which doesn't really leave me much to talk about anonymously. (It's all good, but just very specific)
So, to keep things ticking over, I thought I'd mention I've recently been watching DVDs of Seinfeld, and noticed that Friends is just a less funny rip-off of Seinfeld.
- Phoebe = Less funny version of Kramer
- Chandler = gets all the best lines, like Jerry Seinfeld
- Central Perk = the café where Jerry, Elaine and George spend a lot of time
- Both are set in New York
- Janice = she actually appears as a character in "The Fix Up"
QED, thinks I.
If you've never watched Seinfeld, then I recommend it... once you get over the fact that hardly anything happens (one episode set entirely on subway trains, and another one set entirely in the waiting area of a Chinese restaurant), you can see the genius.

Theory
The quality of customer service in any place of business is inversely proportional to the quantity of signage.
Specifically:
- high quantity of home-made laminated signs = poor customer service
- high quantity of cartoon clip art = poor customer service
- Comic Sans font = poor customer service
Go on, start your own survey and try to prove me wrong...

Is it possible to make homemade wholegrain crumpets?
Just wondering.
Hoping the wholegrain will absorb some of the fat from the butter-filled holes.

Emigration News
1. Sold my scaffolding tower last night. That gives me about 1/4 of the garage space back! Even managed to hustle the buyer into buying even more of my junk once he arrived to collect.
2. New Zealand Immigration Service phoned me today to tell me that they have approved my 2-year Work Visa already. Less than 1 week from posting to approval - I'm loving their country already!
3. First removals firm has done an estimate for shipping a container load of my crap, and awaiting their quote.
4. Had runner beans with cous cous tonight.
