UK Trip 2009 - Wednesday 8 April 2009
Got a good nights sleep for the first time on this trip, probably due to being back in familiar surroundings.
After breakfast, my Dad and I drove down to the local retail park and looked in a few of the shops. I was surprised to find that the wireless modems I was interested in had dropped in price, but there were none in stock. Dad had better luck and picked ip the electric blanket that he was after.
Dropped in to one of the local supermarkets and looked for some decent cheap Australian and New Zealand wine. Not easy to find any good cheap stuff, but picked up couple of what I hope will turn out to be nice wines for under £5.
In the afternoon, I drove down to Castle Marina to look over out for wirelesss modems and discovered that they have all come down in price. But after a long time weighing up the options I decided to stay with the unpredictable but cheaper option of using my Nokia phone.
On my return, tried to check my bank balance on my aussie bank account, but got the pin number wrong too many times and the system must have locked me out.
Arranged to see Janice on Friday and will be catching up with Dave on a week from Thursday.
