Hello everyone.

Thought I might share my weekend with you all.

SATURDAY:

Got up at about 8.30 am, got in the car. Drove the bub to Nanny's shop and dropped her off. Filled up the car and left. Drove to Melbourne, parked the car in town and went shopping for Maternity Clothes for MrsP. At about 3.45 pm, checked in at the Le Meridien at the Rialto. Watched the Caulfield Cup whilst sitting on the KING bed in our room. Picked second and third for a decent pay out and then left for the casino. Arived at the Casino at about 6.30 pm and had a bit of a play around on the pokies. Wasted some money there. Went for dinner at 7.30 at SILKS restaurant and pigged out on the finest asian meal that I have had in years. Rubbed shoulders with owners of Caulfield Cup winner and Jockey, not to mention Lee Freedman. Well, they were on the next table so close enough. After dinner, started into the WWW savings on the roulette :eek: Won a little there :cool: Then played the pokies some more. Just about to give up in dispair when we roll up a big winner and pull $550 out of the machine. :p :D Went back to the hotel and crashed.


SUNDAY:

Got up at about 9.00am and went downstairs for the finest and most lavish buffet and continental breakfast on the planet. Then checked out and headed for the wood show. Arrive at the wood show and MrsP says, "Hey there's a baby show on" :rolleyes: Entered wood show with loaded wallet and high expectations. Wasn't disapointed and emptied out the wallet. Checked out the CWS spot. Would've said G'day to and Jim but they were flat out. Went to U'beaut to get some GLOW and a rotary sander. Watched Stoppers demoing, smiling (What!), Laughing (WHAT!!) and threatening to punch the customers, (phew, starting to worry there) then, the travesty of the whole show, sold the last Rotary sander to the bloke next to me. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :( Then left and had a quick look round the baby bit before driving home. A fantastic weekend and can't wait for Carbatec call to pick up the Machines. :cool:

Dan, shopping for maternity clothes! isnt the kingsize bed a bit of overkill and a bit too late? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

You need to contact Iain, he says he bought a rotary but can not find out where to fit the batteries, maybe it was him standing next to you. :p :p

Rob,

Yeah, If I'd known you'd be there I would've given you a freebie ticket I had. I tried a couple of people to see if I could give them to someone on here but I got them too late to post them. Oh well, the blokes I gave them to at the door were fairly happy to get them. I'm coming down tonight, again, to go to court in Frankston. PM me your phone number and I'll give you a call. I might drop in at Al's craporium on tuesday, although he doesn't know it yet. :D

I just buy tools and surf the internet. I also buy and read books on how to use said tools. In my mind I'm an expert in them all. Must get around to making something one day.
