Giveaway bonanza
Merry Christmas to my blog readers. I’m giving away The Ellen Show DVD. Go check out the details.
There will be more to come over the next few weeks.
TV shows – old and new
What do these TV shows have in common – Cashmere Mafia, Mad About You, Diff’rent Strokes, I Dream of Jeannie, and The Ellen Show. Read on to find out.
The winner
In the end there were four people who wanted to win the phone. Thanks to:
- Yvonne at Tea Party Diva
- Lisa at Wisemonkeys
- Louisa at Edible Moments
- Trish at My Little Drummer Boys
Do I choose between someone who wants to stay in touch with their family, someone who’s had extremely bad luck with their phones, someone who’s written an ode to their phone, or someone who’s little boys keep stealing her phone?
Mmmmm.
I have to choose, I can’t avoid this any longer. I’m gonna choose Yvonne at Tea Party Diva so she can keep an eye on her new grandchild from afar. Yvonne, email me via the contact link at my blog and let me know your address so I can post it.
Thanks to the others who also entered. I hope to have some other giveaways down the track so stay tuned.
You’ve got under 24 hours
So far it’s looking good for the people who’ve entered to win the Sony Ericsson phone I’m giving away. You’ve got 24 hours left to do it, ie entries are due in at midnight tonight.
I’d like to thank the three people who’ve entered so far – see I told you there was a good chance:
If you haven’t entered it won’t take long I promise.
It’s mostly about him really
Last week JJ started indoor soccer. I got up early Sunday morning thinking it was on at 9.15 and luckily I looked at the timetable because it didn’t start till 1.20pm. Also lucky for me that JJ got dressed because his shoes didn’t fit him. It’s only three months since he wore them comfortably but they’re too tight now so we had a chance to go and buy some more. He’s seven years old and wearing size five shoes. Soon he’ll be wearing mine.
I also bought him a new soccer ball which we didn’t end up needing at his indoor soccer but he loves the ball nonetheless. He’s slept with it and he constantly cleans it. He’ll soon wipe all the markings from it. He’s been taking it to school and it’s made it through the first week (provided it comes home today that is). I watched him the other morning sitting on the trampoline caressing his soccer ball with a damp cloth.

We had an appointment this morning at a local university and after the appointment he had to go to the toilet. He’d been in the exact same toilet (a disabled one) an hour prior on the way to the appointment. This time, though, the door wouldn’t unlock. I let JJ go to the disabled toilet so nobody else could go in and I could keep an eye on him. Hah! I asked a bloke coming out the mens toilets if he happened to have a screwdriver (as if) so we could try and get him out. He didn’t but we tried a coin and that didn’t work. We then called security. The security guy took the lock off the outside and that didn’t work and put it back on. He then managed to undo it somehow and JJ got out.
I was so proud of him not losing the plot and staying calm. He was superb. He was more embarrassed than anything but not too embarrassed to tell the person in the front office at school when I signed him in.

Thanks to the people who’ve entered the giveaway phone competition so far. I don’t know how I’m going to judge this as everyone deserves to win.
For those who are still to enter your comment won’t immediately show up if you add a link because these comments go into my moderation queue. I won’t be able to check until Saturday night as I’m off to practise and then play at our uke gig at the Fluerieu Folk Festival. Hopefully three nights of half-arsed practise will do and I won’t stuff up.
