Today we did a flying trip to Sydney to get a desk, bookshelf and DVD tower for Jack. Now that he has his new computer with its large, 23cm screen, the desk he has is too shallow for him to sit at comfortably and look at the monitor. He needs a better desk anyway - the one he currently uses was suitable for primary school but he needed something more substantial for secondary school. The three-piece Ikea system that we picked out should work really well (fingers crossed!). The great thing about Ikea is that if you choose pieces from different ranges but with the same finish like we have (three pieces from three different ranges), they should look good together. Now Allan just has to get some time to put it up from the flat packs!!
Sandra and Jimmy were visiting Doreen and I hadn't seen Doreen for months (I couldn't go up after Christmas) so we called in for lunch and caught up with them all as well as Aunty Rene. It was great seeing them again. The boys had a very enjoyable time playing on the DS.
