Went to band for the 1st time in a few weeks.

We played the tunes to Abba which was really cool…and my part is really challenging .

Home to get to band over the next few weeks subject to work.

After months of knowing it could happen but unable to talk about it. Our church ministers are moving on to pastures new.

Both Paul and Louise Wood have brought a lot to the church since they moved here 8 and 7 years ago however it will be a good time to move for the family with their son starting infant school in September.

Later in my Blog I will confirm on who we are getting to replace them and which church will have Paul and Louise will be leading.

Well today 10th february saw the 13 week scan, well we found out it was more like 14 weeks 5 days so we are more than a week ahead than we thought.

Well went to do some work and found the LG screen had died, looks like the psu has died as it did not light up.

Been to tesco’s to try and get it replaced but as I could not locate the receipt so they would not exchange it.

However I have emailed LG as the warranty card in the box say’s it has 3 year on site swap out.

Oh well not much done today.

The more I have been playing with Linux the more I like, I have not had linux as a desktop machine for at least 7 years and gave up using it as a desktop machine.

The web servers all run red hat so i am not afraid of linux builds however many apps in windows world are needed to get 90% of the tasks done. however in the last few years it seems a whole range of programs that allow me to do website, photo manipulation, music, video, office and so on have come onto the market and with the easy to install systems this has made life so easy.

Anyway heres to using Linux much more in the future…. however I still have a range of custom programs I need a windows machine for.

The linux build I am playing with at the moment I may try fedora http://fedoraproject.org/ as this seem to be a great build too.

Sam had been worried about Sarah this week as she kept being sick and then had been wetting the bed so we both decided to tell him last night he is going to be a big brother.

He took it really well, now he is telling every one about it and that he is going to be a big brother.

So the waiting till the 10th has now been changed as he knows..

After several weeks Sarah has now become a facebook convert.

I am nearlly at 100 freinds however I have some so many un-answered freinds requests it will probably jump up shortly.

I have caught up with so many old friends you just would not believe it.

Anyway the facebook app on my iphone is fantastic and I have now instaalled it on the blackberry too as this phone is always with me at work.

Well for a few months we have been waiting to tell people and now Sarah is 3 Months pregnant it seems a nice time to release such News. (Sam is to be told on the 10th so anyone that reads this and sees us before then please keep it descrete).

Well here is a 8 week Scan we had done on the 5th January 2009.

As you can see from the picture it looks like a Jelly Baby, so we have recently been calling it the Jelly baby..

Due Date for Jelly Baby is 13th August 2009.. Next Scan is the 10th February….
