on the short drive from our house to the main road a few days ago, i saw two cars on breeze blocks, sans tyres.
in the spar over the road from the shop, i saw a south african girl drawing money from the ATM. wearing a pesudo-[pretty soldier sailor moon] outfit.
word of the day (the other day) but possible contender for word of the week: observeillance. coined by the evil landlord (he’s the human in the pic, not the cat).
after much messing around with drivers and the like, i have adsl in Teh Shop (which is going nicely, but a bit quietly, during this wet and cold wintertime) - woo!.
jo has a new job at a very nice company, located up past the boerewors curtain. she like, is good. happy.
we both have new (to us. p’s is a few years old, mine more than ten) cars!
Teh Roachmobile died an overheated gasket blowing death (how’s this for irony - it happened on the way to the mechanic, where it was being taken for a ‘we want to sell this, what do we have to tell potential buyers is wrong with it’ inspection.).

my little red thingy:

vroom! : D
my first car!
we’re off to thailand (and surrounds) on the 15/09/06 for three weeks (two for biz, one for holiday).
don’t have the money for it, or the money to buy the stock we need for the shop, but we’ll think of something…
it’s odd. since jo getting her job we’re actually poorer. all the things we were putting off because we had no steady income we’ve suddenly had to do because we need them. hmm. however, i’m confident that chrimbo in the shop will take a very substantial chunk out of this beast of credit we’re piling up.
we’re both on the recovery side of a bout of flu which was bad, bad, bad.
erm.
it’s all sunny outside - woo! : D
