Viv- evap cooling (evaporative) is mainly a melbourne thing i think. it seems to work better with the Melb weather than ducted air. we got it in our house in Melb. But if you get a really humid day it struggles to keep it cool. Basically u need to leave the windows slightly ajar for it to work properly and it sucks the air in and cools it pushes it back out (or something along those lines!) but cools a max of about 10degrees. so if its a 40deg day it still gets hot. It wouldnt work in NSW or QLD most spots.

Syd meet up- ok cool i am there next Monday 10am! So is there a spot fr the older ones to go? My only concern is that Nixon doesnt give a toss and just runs off and keeps running! He has done thins to me the last few times ove been out and thinks its a game to run faster when i try getting him back.

Thanks for the congrats everyone, Claire ahhh a cleaner would be great! and Nitro has 6 ppl on our team incl the two of us!

Well Tyron did a 9.30pm-4.30am again last night! thats 2 nights in a row.
but then during the day Ty seems to want to feed every 2.5hrs, so i kinda cant complain if i am getting a good stint in the evening.

ohh and special day here "I got my first smile today!" so cute he was gooing and gahhing at me hehe!

i took advantage that i didnt have Nix thismorning and went to the shops with Ty. I was there for 3hrs and still felt like i was rushing around to get everything i had to (i had a big list!) having to feed Tyron in between prob wasted close to an hour of that time but he was really good otherwise. ahhh it brought back memories of how i use to go shopping with nixon and he'd be asleep/content the whole time, but now he wouldnt last more than 20minutes!

did a coles online shop yesterday, couldnt be bothered trying to get to the shops with bot of them while dh is away, last time the shop took 1.5hrs and then it took a further 2.5hrs to unpack it all.
