Well it’s that time of the year where life just gets in the way of such great plans and ideas about festive well wishes so we’ll just say Happy New Year instead

We had a great Christmas with family and for once they all came to us so although busy it was a great time to have with your extended family and no disagreements with MOTH to work out who’s designated driver Kids got a 14 foot trampoline for Christmas so that has been a great boredom buster for them and a good work out for me

We go into 2009 with such excitement and optimisim for our business and also personal life too so here’s to the year ahead and a small salute to the year that was.

Apologies for the break in transmission, our very talented PR lady has managed to get us in the media and been keeping us busy and trying to keep out of mischief… it is hard 

Here’s the article from this week’s Woman’s Day.  We’re on page 99 of the 1 December edition.  (It’s the one with Suzie Maroney on the cover)

Hey that child looks pretty bored doesn’t she? Poor mite!

We also had an article in the Sunday Mail in November.  Here is a copy.

So that’s our little media snippet and shameless brag for the moment.

 Will try and blog before Christmas and our School Holidays start (it was too long between drinks and this entry feels like it is a post and run which it is!)

Hey who would have thought that we would have been in style before our time?  Apparently we are.

According to this article in the Herald Sun, the humble lay-by is back in vogue.

At least we’re trend setters in one dept, now to work on the fashion style because we are definitely no trend setters there.

Truly, we’re not.

Well its more of an article.  About us of course :D  This was in the Blacktown Advocate paper today, Wednesday 12 November. 

You know when you see a good product you just have to share it with everyone right?  Well this is a fantastic idea and one we wish we had when our children were still babies.  Wrap Right Sleep Tight is a brilliant idea which only a mum could have come up with ;)  A wriggle proof baby wrap. 

So if you have a wee babe (oh how I miss that newborn smell *sigh*) or are in need of a gift for an expectant mother, this is a great gift idea.

The poor old Aussie dollar continues to slide further down towards the 60c mark.  That makes it for a very expensive trip overseas now and is making families reconsider their holiday plans overseas.

At least it’s good for international tourists visiting our country.  A very affordable holiday indeed and in turn they are supporting our tourism industry.

Boredom Busters also accomodates the overseas tourist.  Lay-bying their tourist attractions prior to leaving home has never been so affordable or easy.

For further information, go to our International customers page on our website.

Just a friendly reminder to you all that our orders for the 2008/09 Christmas School Holidays close this Friday 31 October.

School holiday entertainment has never been so easy or affordable.

We’ve just had some coffee cups and tote bags created by the very talented and extremely reasonably priced Forever Impressed. We couldn’t be more impressed (LOL) or delighted with our order, to the point that we seem to be adding onto it!

Go to  www.foreverimpressed.com.au and have a squiz at the variety of products that you can have printed with either your logo or picture.  Perfect Christmas gift idea.
