As the none of you who read this will be aware, I have re-linked this site to the www.julianlewis.info address. Typing the above address into your browser should bring up this site. Also, I am not currently doing anything with our secondary blog http://web.mac.com/julesandshell/. Although a little more sophisticated and 'clean-cut' than this address, it is not very easy to update at this stage as we do not have the internet at home. I am hoping to come up with a third and final blog- When this happens, I will announce the site, and will expect people like you to comment and interact with the site on a regular basis.
I am a little more sane today, as 2 of my 3 bosses have returned from Botswana. This means I occasionally get to converse with a real person during my day. I am quite pleased about this. My fate here, however is still uncertain. I hopefully will find out next week whether or not I have this job until I leave.
I'm off to eat a home made sausage roll. Yum yum.

Up Up and Away
I am really quite peeved at the moment, as I just finished writing a really long post, and it just disappeared. I mean it... with very little explanation. I am almost too annoyed to continue writing. Anyway, let’s see if I can get over it.
Yesterday was valentines day (as I’m sure you all know). After plan A being literally washed down the drain (okay, not so literally)*, Julian and I initiated plan B- ie. Dinner and a movie at SouthBank. We had dinner at Toscani’s where we experienced poor service and judgement from the wait staff for cashing in on an el-cheap-o dinner deal ($16 for dinner and a movie- Bargain). Unfortunately, their Chicken Pesto (yummy as it was) was served in a very rich, thick cream sauce, not mentioned on the menu. This meant that I could not eat much of the meal at all, and had to rely on Popcorn as my main meal of the evening.
The Movie in question was Deja Vu, which was an entertaining film, which upheld its genre of mystery/thriller. So long as you could ignore the common problems and loopholes encountered by any movie that addresses the space-time continuum, you can really enjoy this movie.
The downside of the Flick, however, was its finishing time, and the fact that I had not researched train timetables for a weeknight. The film finished at 11.10pm, and the next train did not come until 11.58pm. Yep, that’s a 50min wait at SouthBrisbane station when all we wanted was to be fast asleep in bed. Lets just say the alarm clock was not our friend this morning.
How was everyone else’s day/night?
*Plan A was for an evening Kangaroo Pt rock climb

Another Tester
This also is a tester, to see how well photos attach themselves to the document. It is not exactly classy...
