I've been on the recieving end of more critism of my views on q4t. Perhaps 'more' sounds a bit harsh, I get a great deal of postive feedback and comments, and as the old saying goes, you can't please all of the people...

As in the last time this happened, after sending a detailed breakdown of my views and explaining my stance to the person in question, the returning comments have once again boiled down to the fact that they are not happy with either the hunt in question, or the donations forum, rather than me - I just seem to be a happy venting point due to the fact I make myself accessable to people on the net quite easily. I wasn't too harsh on the person in question, and even let them have the 'last word' (certain people get upset if you don't let them have this) by saying I'd commented on evertyhing I could, and can't add anything futher, so I wouldn't be sending another reply. They have of course replied. Skipped down to the last line, and then never bothered reading the rest and deleted it. Ho hum.

Broke car last night. Zen Sr replaced the worn brake pads (cause of the rather ungainly noise coming from ZEN 1 over the last couple of weeks) however couldn't get the break cable reattached. Seems to be a problem with it that has caused the pads to wear down sooner than expected. Garage should have it sorted today. Made do with ZEN 2 to get me to work.

Shopped around a bit on exchange rates, and from what I can see, it's the same across the board - no one ever seems to give you anything near to what the market value is - so commission free travel agents it is. Best deal atm seems to be with the american express travellers cheque 'card', which gives a 'bonus' exchange rate. While I don't feel comfortable enough sticking all my money on one, I'll certainly stick some on it.

Started work on a treatment for my story idea last night, and added about another 4 pages to the bible. Actually have a tangable storyline idea now.
