She
had told Ron she couldn't afford to pay for The Cord to be
printed; that she could afford to print a new magazine seems
more than dis-honest.
Adver-tisers
were pleased with the new look of The Cord (pre-vious issue)
and were happy to move to Brig-itte's new maga-zine.
Ron
decided not to continue with the Cord in its old format, so
it no longer exists.
And
the End of Brigitte
I
kept my mouth shut until we got all the money that Brigitte
owed us. Then Kristie and I made a visit to the shop,
removed my books from her shelf and took back Kristie's tape
deck that had supplied the shop with music for months.
We
thanked Brigitte for the opportunities she had given us,
explained that everything had become too confusing between
us and made it clear that this was going to be the last time
we came into the shop. We wished her good luck and future
success and no doubt left her a little stunned.
We
just couldn't trust her anymore.
Temporarily
Jase
After
hours of tests I'm now on call with a temp agency as a
clerical / receptionist / oddsbody. I'm already being called
for casual work and the money sounds great!

Isn't
this a brilliant photo? Riff, Bec, Rachel (Bec's sister),
Jase & I all went cable hangliding a couple of weekends
ago. Hence the brilliant photo. Harnessed into a hanglider,
attached to an overhead cable you whiz down into a gulch,
complete with skeletons and vipers. The best bit was being
pulled up the cable backwards to the launch point. And I
have to admit to spitting on the way back up, which was
great 'cos it went so far.
It
works on a hydraulic system you see. After hangliding, on
the way back home we stopped at the Lake Side Leisure Park
and Jase went for a ride on the very fun toboggan ride. Down
the shiny slide he went going "WHIZZZZ" all the way home. We
want to go back there again.
The
trip back to Vic was good. Dad and Margaret's spare bed is
so comfortable. It was a major highlight of the trip. Went
to visit Mum & Nan in Heathcote. Actually we went for
lunch. Chatted lots, I hadn't seen Nan for over a year so we
had a lot to catch up on. Got to ride in Mum's lovely new
car, and got told off heaps for playing with the electric
windows and locks.

Mark,
deserves some credit too. He is as big a pig as she is a
bitch. Norm and Ray from the Theatre Royal were a bitter
disappointment as well.
On
a brighter note our friends, Riff & Bec, have happy news
- Bec is pregnant. Poor thing is sick like a dog at the
moment. Morning sickness, huh, try all day and night sick.
Still I suppose she can take naked baby photos and embarrass
the kid. I know I would. I got a bit clucky for maybe a day,
then realised how crap pregnancy makes you feel and changed
my mind. For now.
Secret
agent 'Bluff' the Penguin recently contacted us: his mission
to save the world from invasion was successful and he'll be
back for fish on Thursday.
