Week 2 - 8th to 14th January


So it's been quite an eventful week so far! The snow is still hanging around although this morning it looked like the thaw was beginning. The grass is peeping through the snow and the roads are turning to slush. In a way I'm gonna miss the snow. Everything looks so much prettier!! However, it's about time we got back to normal!

We had some drama on Saturday when we awoke to find our toilet backed up (we suspect the outside portion of the waste pipe froze) So after a few failed attempts at unblocking, we set about calling the emergency help line to get a repair.. to cut a long story short it took over 27 hours to get through - yes, to the EMERGENCY line. We ended up having to decamp to Robert's mum's overnight as we could not possible have Christopher without proper toilet facilities. We finally got through to someone on Sunday afternoon who arranged a plumber, but of course we rushed home to find the blockage had righted itself!

The next piece of excitement involves my life online! You may know that I have a forum called The North Wing. It's currently on Aimoo but this past week they delivered the straw that broke the camels back. We pay for diamond service which assures no adverts, but they sneaked in some "info links" the most intrusive of all adverts cos they appear right there in your forum posts, by linking to words typed by members. We got rid of them within a few hours, but... Gypsy and I decided you know what.. let's go it alone!

So this week I've mainly been working on getting our new site up and running which is going to include a forum, tutorial site and store!

I haven't decided on this weeks layout theme, but I'll be back in a day or two with it!
