Had our friends Sandra and Steve over for lunch today. They are both on holidays.
Also friend Christine called in for a few seconds before she and Jim went to Parkes for the weekend.
Just found out (from one of our friends) that our names are not listed in the White Pages of the phone book. Can you believe that???? White Pages told me that I had to ring Optus as they were the ones that took it off. Last March, we changed our phone plan and apparently Optus took it out and then put it back in again (BUT............ they didn't put it back in time for the telephone book being distributed).
So........... I rang Optus, who are in the Phillipines by the way. Was telling the first girl my problem and would you believe, she hung up on me............. So.............. rang again, this time I got a man.
Started to tell him my problem, he asked me my telephone number and then put me on hold........ and on hold............. and on hold..................... . So I rang again, finally got another girl who said she would fix it up for me..... I even asked her if I could speak to someone in Australia but that wasn't possible....... it is all in the Phillipines. What is happening to Australia????

Rang the local paper and put an ad in for tomorrow - we want to sell our old TV and cabinet and the old washing machine........ hope we get someone to buy them!!!!
