My fridge, washing machine, dining table (and chairs) and my Plasma TV.

I’m feeling sentimental.. but at least no more procrastination infront of the TV :P

13 days left.

Selling

Author: Tom  |  Category: Life

So, I’m going through te process of selling everything. I’ve decided not to put anything in storage as the cost per year is almost higher than the value of what I was sending.

Everything’s up on gumtree now – The fridge, washing machine & the dining table with chairs.

I’ve still gotta decide what to do with the rest, but i’ll work it out.

On another note, the place which i’ve been renting is now up for sale. The landlords want out.

For Sale!

Would be interested to see what it goes for – it’ll be over $300k though.

New Year, New Name, New Design

Author: Tom  |  Category: Life

First post into the new year, and since I’m moving to Hong Kong, I found it suiting to change the name of my blog and design.

Thoughts from anyone?

Anyway, Everything has been finalised and I’m in the final countdown now to my move. I’ve got a visa in my passport, rent expiring shortly, bits of furnature getting sold, all getting close for my last day here of the 6th February.

After much hassle, my flights are booked Singapore Airways via Singapore for 2 days (short break in between). Its cheaper to fly SIA than Qantas, Virgin or Cathay one way – its crazy. I don’t mind – the service from SIA is great anyway.

Anyway – Countdown, T -16 days.

Kon and I

Roll the credits

The movie we watched was Repo Man – good 80’s style bad flick, love it. We picked a good night for it too – 30 degrees while the movie was showing, clear quiet night. was great.

Gonna check out a heap more yet with Fear and Loathing, Cassablanca, Zoolander, Dr. Strangelove & footloose coming up!

Can’t wait!

Never a Year like 09!

Strawberry Picking @ Sunny Ridge

Strawberry Picking

Took friends who were here from interstate to Sunny Ridge for strawberry picking & icecream.

Ripe for the picking!

This was my first time at a strawberry farm – was fun to pick them all. The weather was good too – it wasn’t too hot so we could stay out for a while – but the flys were deadly :(

Full Packet

Either way – for $8 you get 500grams worth – pretty good value.

Their strawberry icecream is also to die for! highly recommend going out there. I wanted to bring some back – but i forgot to bring the ice packs :(

I’ll have to visit again :)

Good Work Airasia

Just did a web-check-in for my return flight home – and noticed this.

If you can’t read, it says “www.BarcodeTools.com For Evaluation use Only!”

Hilarious – Just Hilarious – they haven’t even paid licence fee’s for the software on their website. No wonder they’re low cost! :)
