David & Fiona’s Blog

This is the new watch by Industries, Fiona bought it for me during the Myer’s sale last month. It looks brand spanking new, I thought I use my digital camera and take a photo. Click on the image to enlarge it.

During the Saturday morning, ABC Blinds installer came to install the blinds we have ordered. The blinds are all white and it looks really really nice. I will take photos next time and post it on the blog.

BUT there is a few issues with the blinds that the installer has made note of, nearly all the blind’s material has some kind of imperfection on it. The roman blinds for the balcony door is getting in the way, but we can still have it but we have to lift it up all the time when we want to open the door. So we have to decide either a roller or roman.

I am getting a bit pissed off driving to the Casino everyday after work to pick up my mother in law while she is in Perth. Everyday after work I have to make a trip to the city to pickup Fiona and at the same time avoid the busy traffic on the freeway.

Then make a detour to the Burswood casino from the city and void the massive city rush hour. I am close to having a road rage each day trying to avoid rushing vehicles after work, some times i am so tired I want to go straight home as soon as I can.

When we move to the new house I am afraid making a detour to Burswood casino and back home is going to be a long long trip, and it’s going to be an exhausting drive and dangerous during rush hour.

Why can’t Fiona tell her mother to stop gambling, what is the point of gambling everyday? I know she has money to burn, money is not to be wasted like this. I rather waste my money on children who lives in a poverty country. Casino takes your money to attract more players, because the more money you lose, the more money inside the machine $$$ and that’s why it looks tempting to gamblers.

The new iPhone 3G S is coming to Australia soon, from what I have gathered on the net Optus is releasing it on the 26 June and the pricing might be the same as the current iPhone 3G. The iPhone 3G prices might drop since the new one is coming out.

There is a lot of improvements done on the phone, and new software features in the new 3.0 firmware. I can still upgrade my iPhone 3G to 3.0 firmware too.

I am tempted to get the new one and pass the old one to my wife, hahaha.

Optus is giving away free mobile SIM cards, with 500 free SMS. For more info click on the link below and register your details. I got Fiona and myself one too! Although I don’t need it, hey it’s FREE!

Optus Free Mobile Prepaid SIM Offer Ends 14th June 2009

Dropped mum off at the international airport yesterday afternoon, mum was the last person to check in and we were afraid that she might miss her flight.

Last night my sister arrived first in KL airport and later on my mum arrived there. Mum was suprised to see my sister there, both of them are taking the same flight to Penang.

I wish I could be there with them to attend my cousin’s wedding.

During the night Fiona and I had to go back to the International airport to pickup her mum, she is here to stay for the month.

Ok finally got our rear fence installed and paid my half of the cost. I am happy with it.

Recently I have sign up with iiNet telephone service a couple a weeks ago because I am planning to sign up with their ADSL2+ plan.

I didn’t realise that the iiNet’s DSLAM has limited ports for ADSL2+ and last weekend when I checked my new phone number and ADSL2+ was available and I didn’t apply for it. Now when I go and check it again it tells me that ADSL2+ is not available or limited and my available options are ADSL1, so it seems that someone else has taken that port.

I think I am going to check my phone number each day until I can get an available port.

My cousin’s wedding is next week and mum and sis are going over there to attend the ceremony. Unfortunately Fiona and I can’t make it. The wedding is in Penang, Malaysia.

Mum doesn’t know that my sister is flying over to Malaysia to surprise her. I think mum will be happy to see her over there. Mum doesn’t see her regularly anymore since she lives in Sydney now.

I wish I could make it, but our passports has expired and we need to stay back in Perth to finish off the new house, and my mother in-law is visiting us during this time too.
