Our house before we moved in
Just trying out some web stuff testing out Google Documents and publishing to the blog hence the title and images below from a Word document. My dad is still needing a buyer for his business as some guy is messing him about so has asked me for help. He has a website but with a hosting company which doesn't offer any flexibility. So I'm going to create a web 2.0 online presence using just Google tools then advertise the blog with photos, documents, even videos if necessary, through specialist magazines and online forums. His website is www.jagsparesinternational.com.
Rats
They've been living in our cavity wall for months but after hearing falling rubble (okay, something smaller than rubble) inside the wall, the council was called. We've got a drain right outside the front which connects straight to the main sewer under the road. Its been a cosy, winter retreat until their summer holiday at the allotments down the road. According to the council man, the drains have been blocked for awhile by the rats digging out the earth and stone around the crack in the pipework. He laid some traps but couldn't unblock the drain. He quoted months if could cause a real stinky problem and suggested we get in touch with Southern Water. SW has since bounced back the responsibility to us which has been swifty batted over to the council. Fingers crossed we won't have to be scoping out sh*t whenever we use the washing machine.
Not about rats
There were alot of birthdays over the weekend so a party had to be attended. K and K celebrated at their flat with news of selling the place. Another birthday boy, Trev announced his house sale and commitment to Thailand. Happy birthday James also, glad you liked the bumper cars. Mark, Kev, Paul and me supplied the tunes though my laptop has decided it doesn't like DJing by refusing to acknowledge my soundcard even after borrowing then buying a new one. The PCI slot isn't even coming up as a usable port and I can see a hefty repair bill (thanks for trying Paul). Surprised myself finding some decent tunes and USB'd them to Kev's laptop as he also has Virtual DJ. I'm not sure if I was the cause of it by getting carried away with the TK Filter but all of a sudden my last but one tune died on me leaving Kev to pick up the pieces. The laptop was resuscitated after a couple of vinyl injections but died again - poor Kev, I don't think his new tune really got the attention it deserved. Paul's tunes seemed to be a set of a classics from every good Sasha, Digweed or Deep Dish compilation. Shame he had to leave us with the bitter, cheesy taste of Santa Maria.
