Julians 40th

We went to my bro's 40th this weekend - here are ome drunken photos for you to laugh at. ...

Football and Food

Jack has started dribbling a ball now - all by himself !

I was so impressed I decided to film him - and threw in a bit of his eating habits too.

Enjoy !

New Zealand Videos

Found a cool website with loads of NZ videos on ...

ITA NZ

We got our Invitation To Apply for residency to New Zealand today. This comprises of a 50 page application form to fill out (which will be nice).

I have had to send off for a duplicate degree certificate as I have lost mine - this costs 50 quid (which is nice).

Then we need to get my qualification "verified" by NZQA as I am claiming bonus points as its on their Long Term Skills Shortage list. This costs another 450 dollars (which is nice).

Then we will need medicals - which will be a few hundred quid (which is nice).

Then finally we need to pay for the application itself and the "migrant levy". Which will be a few hundred dollars. (which will be nice).

Sun Certification

I am now officially a Sun Certified Java Programmer. I've been meaning to do this cert for ages but only got round to it recently. I spent about a month revising each day and night - it was a nightmare and I don't want to do it again !

Norfolk Holiday

We have just got back from Norfolk where we had extremes of weather from torrential rain to hot sunny blue skies. Have uploaded some pics. Check em out.

Manchester

This weekend we went to Manchester to see Jacks Great Auntie and Uncle. Jack was poorly in the night as he woke at 3am and refused to go back to sleep :-(

Mummy and Daddy had to stop at a service station and have a sleep on the journey home as they were so tired !

There are some pics of Jack at Auntie Joans in the Web Album.
