Assurance of Support
Posted on September 28, 2006 | No CommentsIt’s all done. Our sponsor was in at Centrelink today and cleared the whole lot up. From now on it’s just a matter of waiting for the bond request letter (which they hope to send out tomorrow) followed by bond lodgement and notification of DIMIA.... -
Dalkeith, Midlothian
Posted on September 25, 2006 | No CommentsIt’s strange how things manage to change but nonetheless remain the same. Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose, as Rush said – although they said it nicer, with accents in all the right places and I’m on a PC which isn’t kind to... -

Posted on September 16, 2006 | No CommentsThis is a kinda fighty-RPG-Lite, and it’s not at all bad. So far, my little girly warrior (Bague, natch) has done the first six quests (or thereabouts) so it’s still early days. I did start out with an outrageously large sword which took ages to... -
DING!
Posted on September 9, 2006 | No CommentsTrollbert has finally reached level 40 and has spent the correspondingly stupid amount of gold on a Raptor to run about on In other news, Trollbert also popped into Ragefire Chasm to say “Hi” to Taragaman the Hungerer. Taragaman wasn’t impressed, so Trolly had no... -
eBay Feedback
Posted on September 5, 2006 | 2 CommentseBay can be a tedious place, so I tend to try and brighten things up a bit by leaving cheery feedback. You can have a look at the kind of rubbish I speak here. -
Silence
Posted on September 5, 2006 | No CommentsAs ever, I’m not posting because I’ve nothing to say We’re still waiting for Centrelink to be happy with the Assurance of Support information. There’s some paperwork our Assurer needs to provide them with which requires processing by the Inland Revenue, so until that comes... -
The end of an era.
Posted on September 4, 2006 | 1 CommentSteve Irwin, conservationist and documentarian, died at the weekend after a fatal encounter with a normally harmless stingray. We’re all upset by this – particularly the children. Mr Irwin has been a part of our lives since the children were tiny and is in no...
