Day To Day

Hello again! Well today got off to a nice start ... Gemma was off work this morning so I was able to get quite a chunk of work done. However she is out until about 7pm this evening which leaves us with a long day! Oh well!

I am currently writing this via my iPhone as BT are doing something or other, and it is leaving us without the net for 24 to 48 hours. Luckily enough I can work offline, but I need to get online soon!

No news of the Macbook Pro arriving as of yet ... bloody Apple! I love them, and hate them for keeping my new machine from me! 

Well thats enough for now ... Niamh is currently happy with her bottle, and I'm working on Gems laptop so all is good enough!

New Computer!

I took a huge plunge the other week and ordered a spanking new Macbook Pro from the Apple UK Store (a nicely customised one) and am currently on tenderhooks waiting for it to arrive. It was ordered on the 6th March and it says it won't be delivered until at latest the 28th! Thats 22 days to get something from Shanghai to the UK.

As a comparison I ordered a Memory Stick to copy all the gubbins from my PC to my new Laptop from China, and that arrived in 3 days! Come on Apple, you're a huge company ... why the heck is your delivery so damn slow??

Yes I understand that my Macbook Pro is customised, but it doesn't take 22 days to get it to me! After all it cost nearly £2,000 which is a huge chunk of money. The least you could do to people spending a lot is expedite its departure and arrival!

Anybody out there purchased a computer from Apple, how long did it takes yours to get to you?

Did I disappear? Nope! I'm back!

Hello all! Well time certainly does fly, and I've decided to take this blog back up again after being contacted by so many people whose baby had Colic and were going through the same thing.

I'm happy to announce that Niamh is now completely Colic free thanks to Colief, and she is now a glorious 9 months old. She can do 'If you're happy and you know it!' and has just started waving goodbye too! Its fantastic!
