The Weekend Is Over

We have had a couple of interesting days since I was last visiting my Blog page. Friday of course finished with enjoying the footy live from Melbourne, unfortunately there was a 'technical' problem which sent the footy off the air for over an hour. Still it was a good game. Our neighbours suddenly decided to move out. A family consisting of 2parents and 4 kids were renting the small place next to us. And the mum, Tina, is expecting a 5th in a few months. Later when the owner's representative came round we were told they had been evicted!

Saturday saw me again head off to Computer Club where I had offered to do a 40 minute tutorial to the group on Blog pages, what they are and how you do it. It is so easy to create your blog page, you can be online and posting within five minutes so to stretch this to a 40 minute tutorial was a challenge. We did it quite OK and managed to inject a little humor and fun into the exercise. It was good being told that I would be more than welcome to present another tutorial at any time. It will be interesting to see if there are any new blogs out there after my session. Saturday we dined with some neighbours at their home. Chilli chicken wings and some curry puffs made for excellent fare and coupled with a few drinks it was a good night. We arrived back home in time to see the Brisbane Lions come from 7 goals down in the last quarter to defeat Port Adelaide by 3 goals.

On Sunday we decided to have a quick look at the local Sunday market here in the main street of Caloundra. In the past this market had struggled to attract visitors. However as you can see from these photos things have changed remarkably. There are now quite a few food stalls selling a variety of 'breakfast' options. Local street restaurants are open and the place is a hive of activity. This stall (photo below) sells animated witches and is a popular spot. There are now about half a dozen buskers, singing songs and playing music as you stroll around looking at the huge variety of stalls.


I watched more footy on Sunday afternoon. This morning I am around to help someone get Photoshop installed on their computer. Things are busy right now! Local school kids return to school tomorrow at the end of their term one holidays.
