Buzz buzz...yup that's the bee in my bonnet.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say how much banks SUCK in Canada.
Seriously.

You can't electronically transfer to other people's accounts. Helloooo? Welcome to the electronic age people!

And if you want to get paid into your account you can't just provide the (equivalent of) bsb and account number...oh noooo. You have to go into the branch and get a void cheque. 
A cheque!? Who uses those things anymore? Don't people know that cheques are made of paper and paper comes from trees?? I'm pretty sure these aren't environmentally friendly recycled cheques.

GR. 

On a happier, more exciting note, we're going to hear Tony Campolo speak tonight Mission Fest: http://www.missionsfestvancouver.ca/about.cfm

It's good that a whole CITY of churches recognises that we're not here to live our happy little lives, but to GO, make disciples...heck, just help someone out and make a friend.

Happy New Year

Hi folks,

Belated "Happy New Year" wishes.

Shae is back at work. Lach is being a good desperate house-husband.
We've been cooking a lot which has been fun. 

Not much else to report. No snow trips til I get paid. lol.

Say g'day if you get a chance.
