The 2011 Pergola Project
Feb. 8th, 2011 08:53 amThe pergola around two sides of the house is rotting and falling apart. We were going to have it replaced last year, but because of the economic meltdown, we put it off. Well this year, it's getting done.
Got someone out here to measure, decide and he said he will get back to me with an estimate. This is good. What isn't good is the fewking Melville Council. We aren't adding to the house, we are replacing something that is an original part of the house, that had that tree fallen on it last year, instead of missing it, would have been fixed without an eyeblink from them. But now, because it's just old and rotting without the tree landing on it we have to jump through hoops, with this permit that permit, all of which adds to the cost.
We aren't adding on. We are replacing/repairing dry rotting property. Why the f*ck to they have to make it so damned difficult. Send someone out here, take a look, no need for all this bullshit.

I have a PocketPC. Unfortunately, the make and model I have missing being supported by both Vista (bleh) and Win7. It's a bit dated, but I use it. I can't sync my outlook contacts (don't use outlook as email service, thankyouverymuchno) to my Win7 Phone or computer, so, keeping this device up and running is rather important for me. Well, a certain 'let me worm my way behind everything' feline *coughZiggycough* managed to unplug it, and I didn't notice. I lost everything that was on it. I checked my XP laptop out on the breakfast bar, and no back up there.
I took a deep breath, and dug out a rather antiquated Acer laptop (AcerClone) and ran active sync and selected "Restore". Oh thank heavens, it all restored. Right now I have the device on the breakfast bar laptop creating a new back up out there so I don't have to dig out the antiquated one.
