{more purchases}

Wow another few busy days. Been really cold here with fires going nearly all day everyday. Yesterday we had playgroup and went down to the juniors room to hear a story and sing songs. I've organised a story teller to come in a fornight and tell stories, she wears dress up hats wigs etc. The kids just adore her. We will invite the junior room up to us which should be realy good. Will let you know how I go and hopefully have photos ( you never know, might be lucky enought to get a layout :) ).
Today we had to go into town and DH decided that we should have a look at DVD players. Our VCR hasn't been going for about 18 months and last time they fixed it said that it really wouldn't be worth fixing again. So we thought we should do something about it, and upgrade to a DVD player/recorder. Only thing was when DH went in and had a look and I was talking to the sales man (DH isn't into all these gadgets so doesn't understand all the lingo). He dissapeared and we went away and he decided that we should get a TV as well, cause when we get to the new farm we won't be able to afford one for quite some time. Our TV is about 12 years old and sometimes the sound goes and sometimes the picture goes greenish around the edge so things weren't looking good for her any way. We got just a cheapo one but it will do the job. Unfortunately the TV wouldn't fit in the car so they are dropping it off on Monday but I managed to get the TV unit in and also the DVD, so got it all set up this afternoon. Now all we need is some DVDs. I have some scrapbooking ones but that idea didn't go down well with DH at all {can't figure that one out LOL }. Well I might go and try and encourage him to watch one of my DVDs. Don't count my chances though.
Till next time, take care. :)
