Kitchen Progress

Well there has been some progress on the cupboards...


The drawers are all done and only one cupboard remains to build of the base kitchen cupboards.
Next I need to order the postformed tops and vinyl wrapped doors, while I wait for them to arrive I will get back to the bathroom so maybe we can have a shower soon.....starting to smell now....not good :)

We also managed to get aircon installed(ducted evap) and just in time for the latest hot weather, Australia Day is pretty warm and a little humid, but the new aircon is doing a great job of making it feel nice :)

Slippery Out!

Water Oh No!!

Well, after days of record hot tempreatures last night we copped an excellent thunder storm with plenty of rain! Normally I would be revelling in the all the excitment of the event. However my shed (the old one) is a little less than perfect.

It has many holes where rain gets in, and no front wall where the long sloping driveway channels a small river into it whenever we have a downpour. The shed is also stuffed full of our stuff in moving boxes, and the little space that I made for building the kitchen cupboards. So you may understand why in the middle of the night I was braving the lightning and pouring rain dragging new cupboards and stacked melamine out of the water running throughout my shed!!
After all the excitement nothing got damaged, and the new cupboard and stacked melamine are all okay(phew!) and I even managed to sit with my son on his bed at 2am and watch a fantastic display of God's power in the form of a raging thunder and lightning storm!

Fords are the best!

Late last year I had the wonderful oportuinity to purchase yet another Ford as mentioned previously. For a 1999 car with the level of comfort that it has the fairmont or indeed any Australian


Ford falcon etc is an absolute bargain. Ours has done over 200,000km but is in excellent condition and has shown no signs of trouble. I just keep coming back to the humble arguably ugly AU Ford. Fords rule! Cheap to buy, cheap to fix comfy to use great on the highway, excellent on LPG. This time we got a wagon and it has already proved invaluable fitting a far bigger payload than my 3 ton Nissan Patrol (patsy). It is my favourite car to drive much nicer than the big Patrol. So until it breaks and needs something other than tyres shocks and brakes, it is the best!!

Chances are that if you see a hoon or an idiot speeding it will be a commodore....
Fix Australia, drive a ford!

The Kitchen begins!

Well, the kitchen gyprock is all done and painted, and the appliances for the new kitchen have arrived :)


Including a Asko dishwasher, electralux rangehood, under cupboard lighting from ikea.
So now it's up to me to produce a set of kitchen cupboards! I have already built most of the bases (separate to the cupboards) using a nice plywood (never done that before! No crappy chipboard on the floor for us :))

Today I will finish off the plywood bases and begin the cupboards themselves being made from the normal white melamine 16mm. I expect to be nearing completion in a week and a half not including the custom door manufacturer and the bull nosed custom bench tops all yet to be ordered pending some discussion .
There are a few other things in the kitchen to do like the architrave on the doorway that I rebuilt and window architraves etc but they can all be finished post cupboards... Photos will follow...soon....

Reasons to doubt evolution Part 2

The Age of the Earth and the universe.

Evidence for a young Earth is mutual evidence for Biblical creation, because evolution requires many millions if not billions of years if it were possible at all, which I believe it is not.

Here are some facts that point to a young Earth and Universe.

Carbon-14 has not yet reached equilibrium in our atmosphere.
Polystate fossils found world wide breaching layers of sediment supposedly millions of years old.
Non fossilised flesh on dinosaur bones supposedly millions of years old.
Not enough salt in the sea for millions of years of erosion etc.
The continents should already have eroded flat if the Earth were millions of years old.
The rate of decay of the Earth's magnetic field.
The fact that the moon is moving away from the Earth at a rate of one inch per year.
Very low numbers of supernovas.

There is much more like this that you will not find the science teachers telling their students...
There is more than enough evidence above alone that should bring a doubt to your mind about
the "Theory of Evolution".

I will continue to post on the subject...:)
