The Temple of Bague Wasting bandwidth since 1997 - Now in our 27th wasteful year!

Adelaide pulled a blinder on us a few weeks ago. When they asked for medicals and police checks to be done, they also said that – as there had been some stationary changes – we should resubmit the WHOLE application on the new stationary. I’m glad I didn’t do the application myself or I’d have

Well, medicals have been sent off, sponsorship and assurance of support are in hand, but there’s nothing more we can do until the police reports arrive, so we’re sitting on our hands once again. The medicals will likely have arrived in Sydney by now, so at least that’s one thing out of the way. Once

At the library getting a net fix. This is just wrong!

Well, we’ve moved – we’ve finally offloaded the dirty great millstone that’s been around our necks for ten years. Crown Removals were extremely professional and I can’t recommend them enough. The guys came in and got straight down to it – packing and wrapped four hundred cubic feet of posessions and lugging them into the

Well, we’ve moved (more or less). We have some tidying up still to do at the old place, but we’re pretty much ensconsed in the new place. But there’s no net connection! Oh no! I’m currently posting this via the GPRS connection on my mobile and I’m charged by the byte so I’ll have to

Well, Crown Removals are coming to uplift and store all the stuff we’re shipping over tomorrow. We’re still frantically packing, having to get stuff ready for shipping, deciding what we’re taking to the other house, and working out what to do with all the rest. We had our chest x-rays done today, so at some

Those of you who have a certified nelefa habit will be aware of the chequered history we have with this house. Well, I’m delighted to announce that this is the last night we’ll be spending in it. On Friday, the accursed thing passes into the hands of some other poor sod, and good luck to

Well, today has been….. interesting. But enough of that. Sponsorship and Assurance of Support has now been lodged with Centerlink in Australia, so it’s just a matter of attending Xrays, waiting for police clearances, and that’s it. So, we’re pretty much focussing on moving house at the moment. We’re forming two piles – stuff to

Well, our assurers have really pulled out all the stops and their end of things is now sorted out. All that’s really remaining is tomorrow’s X-rays and waiting for the police clearances to arrive from Scotland Yard. We actually have clearances already but they’re dated February which is probably a bit old – I guess

I’ve been very quiet on this blog lately, haven’t I? It’s just I’m run off my feet, panicking and running around like a running about thing doing other stuff. We’re moving house on Friday, with a week’s notice, so we have 65843268345 things to organise and, well, no time in which to do it. There’s
