One day at a time

Hairspray (2007 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It's great to find a movie where you smile from beginning to end.

Tried to see a preview of the musical version of Priscilla - Queen of the Desert, but five minutes into the first act, we were evacuated from the theatre following  a bomb threat. After standing in the cold of City Square outside the Regent Theatre for 30 minutes, we were told that they had cancelled the performance and provide tickets for other preview performances. It wasn't a big deal to me - I live in Melbourne, but that was a big deal for some people that had obviously travelled a long way to see the show. Will record what I think of the show, whenever I finally get to see it.

:::Welcome to Mio-tech.com.au::: A new addition to the gadget family has been my replacement gps - long story short - the store I returned by original gps to for repair lost it and offer to replace it with another of my choosing. After the problems with the previous Garmin, I steered clear of that make and went for the latest Mio - C520. The main advantages being it has a larger screen, text to speech (it reads out street names), is nice and slim for carrying around and has Bluetooth. The down-sides I have discovered is that the interface isn't as nice as Garmin's (you need to already know surburbs to find a street) and its difficult to add additional POI's from the internet. It's true, but you get what you pay for and this is definitely true of the C520. technorati tags: GPS , MIO

F156 from ZTE Once again I feel the urge to buy a gadget and top of the list is this the latest offering on the Telstra Next G network. Offered on prepaid and recently reduced, but I can't think of a good reason to actually buy it! technorati tags: NextG , ZTE , Phone

Finally the last refund has arrived from HP for the new Ipaq I bought several months ago. Now I am only waiting to see what happens with the Garmin GPS I returned under warrenty - it's so far taken two months and only after I contacted JB HiFi, did I find out that the Garmin dealer here in Australia is waiting for a delivery from Garmin in the USA - if they are going to replace the unit, why don't they just tell JB to provide me one from their stock, rather than waiting for some special delivery?

I've just finished reading the last Harry Potter book and even though I enjoyed it, some of the plot lines at the end didn't make complete sense to me. - Why would the Dark Lord not realise other people could get into the room - it was full of stuff other people had placed there! - Harry's spell was hit by another spell, but he was still able to displace the wand? In the end, it's only make believe and I look forward to seeing the movie version, if just to see the duel between Mrs Weasley (Julie Walters) and Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Botham Carter).
