The meetup that wasn't … and then was
Yesterday was the second Tuesday of the month, so should have been meetup night, but the general consensus after discussion on the BCNZ Yahoo group was that most people’s social calendars were already full, December being December, so we decided to postpone and have a brunch next Saturday instead.

Is it even worth giving this entry a title?
Just when I thought I’d seen every possible weirdness that DD could throw up, now all my entry titles have disappeared, to be replaced by something like “Test 1287182”.

They took it back!
One Scrubs DVD successfully exchanged for a voucher, which we promptly spent on several more DVDs. Which means the ratio of books to DVDs on the living room bookshelf has fallen even further… And a large chunk of our Christmas money has been satisfactorily spent, mostly on CDs and a panini press (pretentious, I know,…
Thanks for removing that 😉
It looks like an old-fashioned sewing machine to me – the sort Amy might have had 🙂
PS: A belated Happy Christmas 🙂 Sounds like you had a good one.
I love it! Very nice work!
