Replacement Bellini Intelli Kitchen Machine

Woohoo!!!! The replacement Bellini Kitchen Machine has arrived. Can't wait to try it out.

I must comment on GSM in South Australia for being such a super company when it comes to
Customer service. They always reply and answer communication, phone back etc, WHEN THEY SAY THEY WILL. Not many like that these days.

Now no time to try it out for a bit, as my husband's car was written off in an accident on my birthday last week and we have to be out trying to buy a replacement car with the merger dollars RACQ value our vehicle at.

Good to have two blades, guess one is to take the place of reverse blade. The second blade is for stirring, not chopping.

Thanks GSM for keeping to your word.

Tree Lopers

Today a great big Samoan guy came to my door, offering to cut down a straggly tree down from our front yard. After intense bargaining, I got the price down to $550, thinking this was a bargain and he offering to allow me to pay it off.

After a little less than an hour, they finished, with a tip truck loaded full with my tree and a poisoned 10cm high trunk left behind. Giving him the part payment we had agreed upon, he said I will be back tomorrow for the remainder of payment, as we are going on holidays next week. Bit of a shock to me, however as it will be my husband's pay day tomorrow, I agreed.
Wonder what would have happened if I had not the ability to pay the rest then?

At least the front yard looks much tidier, but I have been worrying where all the lorikeets will go, as they loved the flowers of our Africian Tulip Tree?
Will miss the birds songs as they used to feed in our tree.....probably be much hotter in Summer now, without the shade of that orange flowered tree......
