Kristy and I ventured to the Courier Mail Home Show today (thanks Jason for the free tickets!). Having no idea what to expect, we were pleased to see a number of booths that appealed to our tastes. Both Kristy and I loved all of the furniture exhibits – with a bit more money to spend, we could have easily come home with a new couch, or a billiards table (though where would it go?). Kristy was also a big fan of the Enjo exhibit (they gave me a free lens cleaner!), and some super majick steam ironing thing.
Of course, it was the electronics exhibitors (Chandlers, Retravision, Brisbane Car Sound, etc) were the ones that took my fancy, and I couldn’t resist buying myself a new toy. So I’m now the proud owner of a Digital Set Top Box. It’s awesome! I didn’t go the whole hog and get the High Definition set-top box, as the price difference was somewhat out of my “new toy” range. Still, that can come later as an upgrade… after I get a TV with component video inputs.
Anyway, I spent the afternoon watching The Broncos vs The Warries, with a cold beer and a hot girl. What a life!!
