The failure of the fan and the fridge

As it often happens whenever someone goes away for more than a couple of days, a couple of things 'went wrong' while we were away.

Firstly our main computer stopped working which would have been ok except that I always record certain TV shows to send up to my family in Papua New Guinea. Turns out that the fan inside the box is clogged or something like that. That's why there are no photos as yet because I can't download them until my compuer is back. Michael will fix it today.

Secondly there was a very strange smell in the kitchen. It took a fair bit of searching but we think that a mouse may have gotten inside and died inside the drainage container at the back of the fridge. We seem to have fixed the problem now but it was an awful smell.

Truth is that we're both so tired that we don't really care that much at the moment and are happy to be in our own bed. Don't get me wrong though, the week in Sydney was wonderful and we got to meet some lovely people and learn a lot but your own bed is always nice to return to isn't it!
