Do any Canberra friends have eskies (or equivalent) I can borrow from Tuesday (earlier is fine) till Wednesday afternoon? I've found a second-hand fridge that's within my budget and it's being delivered on Wednesday and I have this great desire not to lose the contents of my freezer in the process.

For other whitegood hunters, go shopping now. My new fridge is about 2 notches up from anything I could afford new and is about $100 less than I thought it would be. People are using Christmas to upgrade. I rather suspect that this was a fridge for a single or a couple and someone needed a family sized one, and so I benefit, bigtime.

This is the first time I've bought white goods in nearly 17 years, so I'm very excited :).

I'm taking 2 days off blogging. I found myself doing the more interesting elements of migraine-life tonight and that was after the doctor told me I was tense and needed to relax. Now I know why people actually take time off for the silly season.

This is partly my own fault. I took my holidays round Jewish New Year, but I didn't actually get them as holidays because everyone was planning their 2008 programs and wanted me to do teaching proposals and advertising blurbs and help them out with this and that and it was all in a real hurry. I am a lesson to us all that we need our holidays, even if all we do with them is catch up with Stargate (mm, that's a nice idea - pity I don't have Stargate to catch up with - I've borrowed Rome and Hornblower though).

I won't be posting until the New Year. See you then, everyone!
