Quick summary

So, I'm leaving to go camping for christmas tomorrow and here is what has happened in the last week.

My powerbook refuses to be repaired. No really it is sitting there and sticking its tounge out at me. The USB port is faulty and so far I've had the port itself, data cable and USB board replaced, next is the motherboard and I hope that fixes it.

I seem to have had a hard drive failure on my windows laptop. Lost everything and can't play online poker :-(
More cost.

Coming back from San Francisco United re-routed my baggage through an alternative airport (no idea why) and during that time someone went through it and stole my camera and brand new laptop charger. My only uninsured camera. More cost.

Chris is still here :-) More cost.

Anyway I think a week away is just what I need. It's going to be cold, but some climbing, skiing and hiking/snowshoeing should be fun.

Then we're off to New York for New Year. One to remember? Definitely more cost.

Enjoy christmas,
