Skies Cloud Over Beginning A Wet Week

We have had a 'usual' weekend. Footy on TV on Friday night with Computer Club again on Saturday. I did a Tutorial on Firefox Add-ons and other Bits 'n Pieces. I started off by talking about using Google to answer many questions. You get an error message on your PC, what should you do? I suggest write down what the error message is and then 'Google' it. Other people talked about translating pages using Google. One member then visited a Russian newspaper website and translated the page using Google!

My Tutorial went OK and several members thanked me when I had finished.

It was footy on TV on Saturday afternoon and evening.

On Sunday I went to our local computer stores with Tony. He said he was 'just looking' at laptops. Tony has only just recently joined the Computer Club and he is getting caught up in the whole computer thing. He has a very slow old laptop and was checking out prices if he were to update. He doesn't have a lot to spend so he wanted to see what he could get for his money. He came home with a $1000 laptop.

Our lovely sunny weather for last couple of weeks has now been replaced with cloudy showery weather. We have been told by the weather forecasters to expect heavy rain Wednesday and Thursdays. It is expected this will then push the dam totals for Brisbane to over 60% and a further relaxation of water restrictions for the Brisbane area.
