Ever have one of those days were everything goes wrong? this Thursday was one of those for us, without going in to too much detail here’s a quick run down…
1. Expensive Car bill for a service and MOT

2. Couldnt get to work as the M3 was closed

3. Hanans sister ill and needing specialist treatment,constantly on the phone with Hanan.

4. Whilst driving into Southampton Hanans car was rear ended by some idiot not paying attention, result we both have whiplash and Hanans car is most likely written off.

5. My sisters boyfriend broke his foot at work.

6. My dad is being hassled by a gang of Eastern Europeans who stole his wallet.

Hopefully this list should guarantee some good luck fora while now, I better go and buy a lottery ticket

On the plus side, our Sky broadband is now connected and on a fairly random note Mum and Dad have been invited to a Garden party at Buckingham palace, I’d like to see the gang of Romanians try and get past the Queens guards…

Ah well, not as many quick updates as I would have liked. I spent last weekend moving house into our new place We haven’t had our broadband connected yet so things are going to be pretty quiet on here until that happens. For the time being I’ve been entertaining myself with decorating removing some miniature wasps nests and wrestling with poorly manufactured pond pumps for our all new, bigger than it really needs to be expanse of pond in the back garden.

A lot of catching up to be done on here about my Saudi trip, unfortunately the seemingly flaky ISP I was using in Jeddah prevented me from posting after a few days. And no I haven’t been sensored by them, it was a plain old site not found message as opposed to the “inappropriate content” message you get when accessing a blocked site in Saudi. This seemed to be a common feature of the ISP Hanans parents use, DNS problems me thinks.

I’ll try and get some quick updates in here over the next few days, however I’m happy to say that we’ve now got the keys to our new house and I’ve started cleaning and moving a few bits before the big van move on friday. I may even do some decorating seeing as i’ve got the whole week off…
