But tonight he said no everytime and wouldn’t come near me.

So eventually it got to his bed time and I told him that it was time to go, at which point he said “Bible” and ran over and sat down next to me, I laughed really hard and read him the story cause I figure he deserved it, to pull a stunt like that at his age just to stay up a little longer!

Ok, so I’m not sure that I’m the man for the job, but I’m both willing to learn and to give it a shot!

The reason that I’m putting my hand up is because I think the guys on radio out here at the moment or really ordinary and I’m prepared to be a puppet if that would make things better. Out of the 2 main local stations there is one girl from the breakfast shows that does a good job, the other 3 presenters I’m not so fond of.

There’s a fill in guy at the moment on one station and he so much better than the usual presenter, I hate it when that happens, why don’t they just give this guy the job…

Anyway… So I suppose what I am saying is just give someone else the job… please…

the premise for the movie is fantastic, basically it’s the making of the making of a film. It really takes a good dig at Hollywood. Robert Downey Jr’s character is a bit of a take off of Russell Crow (his character is a white Australian actor with a bit of a temper and a strong emphasis on method acting…) essentially he plays a white man playing a black guy throughout the movie and it’s a crack up!

An extra brilliant feature of this film is that it starts without you really knowing it’s started… the movie begins with a (fictional) candy bar ad and some movie previews which again are a wonderful satire of the real things. When the fake previews started everyone in the cinema was like “what the hell is going on?” are they really selling that product/making that move?” and then you get the joke. Brilliant.

This movie is worth your money at the cinema. I was even still laughing on way home when I thought about some of the lines.

P.S. beware some naughty language. Although I should mention here that the movie is not a gross humour style movie… some stupidity yes, but not like the really puerile humour you get with some of the other movies of recent times - you know the ones…

We’ve still got a couple of weeks (in theory), so place your bets!

• A fifth baby boy?

Or

• A baby girl?

(Arnott’s choc montes are the standard currency)

On Wednesday the 20th we had a baby boy, Hamish Blake Waghorn…. for all the ladies out there the following statistics are listed:

7lb 3oz
49cm
2.54pm

I went to work Wednesday morning, did a few things, got a phone call around 10-10:30, took a trip to the hospital, stood stunned trying not to look but having the nurses force me too, and at 2:54pm the little boy popped out.

There’s a picture on the camera which is still at the hospital so there may be a photo later. But if you’ve seen our other son Caleb then you pretty much haven’t seen this one at all cause they really don’t look alike in my opinion.

The action is really at the end when the dude who breaks it tries to fix it.

So the opening ceremony in good, and actually there was some really impressive stuff take place tonight, but I think the best thing about it is that it means very soon all the sport will start!!

I’m really excited to watch sports that I don’t watch all that often outside the Olympics.

I also have a video projector for the weekend and after setting it up to watch the opening ceremony it will stay set up all weekend to watch the sport!

I’m still amazed how the humble sandwich press is able to turn a seemingly meagre cheese & tomato sandwich into a full and tasty meal!

I make a sandwich. I put it in the press. light turns green. Cheese melts. Tomato is hot. Hey presto! It’s not a sandwich it’s dinner!

What will they think of next…? Soon we’ll be eating sliced bread!
