Intro
Well the colder weather has creped up on me while I was in Aus and with that comes the flu season and already I am sporting a very nice head cold. It was very nice of Margot to bring it back for us from when she was in Queenstown and promptly given it to every one at work.

Week of Work
Has been a busy week and work, taught Dom three new experimental processes and looks like I got a positive clone for my gene – but I think it will fall to bits under sequencing. Still that is next week, got beautiful results for our gene reporter assays though.

Going to see if Dom will be a late entry with me in the Café Olympics. You have to play ping pong, pool and darts. Though I am not sure if we will have time.

Week O Social
Was pretty quite due to head cold and being poor from Aus. But I did go and see Paul Zenon http://www.paulzenon.com/ He is a magician who tells cheesy rude jokes. I thought it was great. Nick said not enough magic. But he did do some cool jokes, but he reckoned the venue was magician torture. A round room covered in mirrors.

Week O WoW
Have started raiding again, and was quite good. Getting a new PC next week which will be all good. Well technically not new I get Nick’s old one and he gets a new one. I am not to worried, as long as it works.

Week O Being a better person
Well I did my yoga video and discovered I need more exercise in my life. But week 1 down of doing it every Saturday, so I will see how I go.

Books and Stuff
Reading book 3 in that series I mentioned last week having read book 2 at the start of the week. So far it is very good, and fully recommend it to any one that enjoys Sci Fi Fantasy.

Terry brought the Rome series on DVD so Nick and him have been watching it. Looks good but I missed the first episodes so no idea what all the relationships are.
Summary
Was a nice relaxing week except for being sick. Oh and the tittles to our house came through, so one step closer to owning it fully – well with the bank.
Like everybody else, when I don't know what else to do, I seem to go in for catching colds. ~George Jean Nathan
