Connect Church Website finally up and running

Today, I finally got the Connect Church website up and running. Everything is working fine, although the domain name is still not fully propagated. That should happen next week. It is a good feeling. I watched Eurovision in the evening.

Today we finally got the new phone network installed at BUCO. We have also got a much faster internet along with it, which is cool.

Website nearly ready

I met with Pastor Simon Williams today at Connect Church. He helped me set up the web site account for the church with a hosting service called eWebCircle. The site should be up and running in a few days. This is good news.

A quiet Wednesday

I got almost no sleep on tuesday night. I slept in late and did very little all day long. We had another Shiraz club meeting in the evening at Rod Geri's place. We watched the latest Star Trek video. I had seen it twice before. They have almost installed a new Pizza oven outside.

A new heater

I went for a walk in the afternoon and passed by a house which was having a garage sale. I managed to pick up an oil heater for only $10.00. It was a good bargain.

Friday the 14th

I went for a walk down town at lunch time and ran into Tony Curnow. I had not seen him for a while and we had a long chat. He is still living on the farm at Wedderburn but not doing sheep any more as there is no money in it. He is sub letting the place to someone who is growing garlic. It was good to catch up with him and have a chat about things.

I had to leave work after lunch as I was feeling crook with indigestion. I think those saveloy s I ate the night before did not agree with me. I felt OK after a short rest.

A busy Wednesday

First up, I visited Connect Church where I met with Pastor Simon Williams and we finalized a few things about the web site, despite having a few computer glitches. He is happy with what I have done and we are nearly ready to go. I have now just got to tee up a hosting service.

Later, I went shopping and bought new underpants and socks.

In the evening I attended a service at the Forest St Uniting Church. This was a combination of church service and an annual reporting evening for BUCO. I got to meet Sue McMinn, who is Kath's new PA. It was a really good night overall.

The merry month of May

This is my first update for a while. There has not been much to report. I got my results back from my test for Bowel Cancer. They were negative. Let's hope it stays that way.
