I had to post our Wii console back to the manufacturer's this morning, as its not working. We all miss our Wii :-( Nintendo had sent us a pre-paid label to return the console, but our little village Post Office couldn't deal with it at all. The bigger Post Office in the next village wasn't much better, and the lady behind the counter spent ages faffing about trying to work out how to give me proof of postage without me being charged for the postage!! Apparently it was difficult!! In the end they stuck another tracking label on the parcel and gave me that, and stamped/signed a receipt to say they'd received the parcel. I hope that nothing happens to it!! It should have been easier just to return it to the shop where we bought it, but apparently there is a world shortage of Wii's and the shop wouldn't have been able to replace it!!! Aaaargh!!!!!

Computer Geek just spent part of his first paycheck and bought himself a Wii this past weekend.. I'll tell him to be careful with it. :>)
Hi Cabbage Queen :-)
Don't worry its not something we 'did' to it, it just stopped reading discs. The man at the shop didn't sound surprised?!?!
Hope Computer Geek has as much fun with it as we've all had - I'm missing it already!!
Love

WHAT!?!?!? Is it gone for good or are we getting it back or what!?!!?!?
Though we need a new nunchuck anyway before we can play Transformers again.

Of course its coming back you pudding!!! Once they've fixed it!
What do you mean about the nunchuck, I didn't know there was a problem with it?!?!

Good good, that's alright then!
Oh yeah, me and Little Bro sort of didn't realise that you don't need to hold it forward to make the Transformer go in that direction, and it's jammed it and kind of broke...we are very sorry!

You SHOULD have told me about it young lady! What do I tell you? If you break something and its an accident I'll only be cross if you try and hide it!!! Well thank you for FINALLY letting me know!!
Lots of love

What? We told dad several times, we only remembered when we tried to play Transformers, and you were never in the room at those points!

Hi, I was drawn to your blog because I am in the UK and our DTC dates are very similar. I notice you have your official LID, could you tell me how you managed to get this as I am having some difficulty ? Any help would be very much appreciated. Miki
Hi Miki,
We paid to join BLAS and they were able to supply our LID within a couple of days of sending them the IMO. We did keep trying DFES (or whatever they are called now!!) but they couldn't get hold of our LID for us. If you want to get in touch email me at janet@gertiesquidge.co.uk
Love
Janet
