Just another manic Sunday. That's my fun day.

4:30am get up
5:00 at work working on a software bug
6:00 Chris calls to check I am going to drive him to BGS
6:20 Home pick up Chris & Drive to BGS.  This is a nice inspirational time of the day.  I hope Chris gets some wind though as it is one of those cloudy days with a few spits of rain.
6:50 Drop off Chris for a days sailing.
Drive down Wickham tce and buy a coffee.  Drive back home.
8:00 Phone rings.  Telstra need a microwave link repair.  At work we offer a 24/7 exchange and repair service to Telstra for some microwave links.  This repair was flagged urgent and required in NSW.  So it was into work.

The microwave units come in two forms.  Round and Square.  Telstra require a round unit and of course as luck would have it, we only have square ones reasy to go.  But there is a round one waiting for repairs to be completed.  To facillitate a quick turn around, I get a square unit and swap the electronics from the square to the round. 

CHURCH VIDEO PROJECTOR
10:30 left work with the telstra package on my front seat and drive to church.  There has been discussions going on regarding projecting words onto the back wall and I was supposed tos et up a demo.  Arrived in the nick of time and got the projector out and connected up.  Andrew Lose found some suitable power point on the church computer and we all stood around and sad "Hmm yes that looks OK."
11:15 Me the Australian Aire Express courier in the church parking lot and she took the parcel.
Cleaned up the mess in the church then figured a few minutes spare.
Walked down to the coffee club.  Bought a coffee and texted Telstra to let them know the parcel was on its way.
Chris phoned to say sailing was being called off early due to high wind and jelly Fish.
Drove in to BGS
12:30 Picked up Chris and drove back to Oxley.
1:00 Lunch kindly prepared by Megan.
Then managed to get a few minutes on the new computer and experimented flying the helicopter simulator.  It appears that Microsoft Flight Simulator FSX will allows separate throttle and collective inputs but I can not get it to work sensibly.

3:30 drove to Southbank
BBQ tea with Ian and fay.  Marcus brought a freind - Fergus.
Chris did a great job on the BBQ.








Megan made a Mango Cheescake for dessert.











We all posed for a family snap



We then went to see the musical "Mary Popins".
It was great.  The sets were absolutely fantastic.
I was enjoying it and really in this case hoping they would forget the intermission. 
Mind you the message is one of "Fathers go play with your kids" of which I am quite slack.
At intermission met Zac from Woodford & Easterfest fame.




We all lined up to take photos of the cast list and aspiring cast members
