Saturday in Darwin


Saturday, 26th June

Another hot day in paradise, only the wind has changed direction (as have the planes) and the humidity has lessened, thank goodness.

A quiet, lazy Saturday and most of the morning was spent reading the weekend newspaper and socialising, before heading to the shopping centre for a few necessities. As there weren’t very many people waiting, we took the opportunity to talk to a consultant at our very favourite business – Telstra! My mobile contract is about to conclude, which means talking about new phones and prices. It didn’t prove all that difficult, yet, to settle on a new phone and retain my current contract. However, it meant I would actually have to buy the phone, either add the cost to the monthly account of pay in full immediately. Of course, they didn’t have the model I wanted in stock! The nice man will ring me IMMEDIATELY my order arrives. I think I will check myself every time we are in the shopping centre.

The afternoon was just as peaceful, with the main entertainment being able to watch all the new arrivals reversing onto their sites – quite interesting at times. The only other little excitement was when I started typing and discovered the Y key thought it was a Z, and vice versa. A restart seemed to solve this little problem.

Three ants have committed suicide today!!!
