Brisbanehomes quote of the week " It is said; A man on his deathbed, never voiced the regret; 'I wish I had spent more time at the office.' " Author Unknown

Dear Customer

Welcome if you are receiving this email for the first time. Good luck to you - I hope you will find the property that you are searching for here - we have got some more great new listings this week.

Thanks to those who gave feedback on the new format. I suppose I expected the "for" and "against" (for we are creatures of habit , are we not?) The majority said new format = better, so new format stays.

On a not so pleasant note, during the last week or so I have received dozens of emails from various people containing viruses, most common being the W32.Badtrans.B@mm worm. If you have anti virus software and regularly update your signature files, then you should be fine. If you don't have a clue what all that means, you are highly susceptible of unknowingly being infected by a computer virus. You should do a free online virus check by visiting Trend Micro's houscall Another program, which I personally use is Norton's . And there are more new viruses to come click here to find out about the new W32.Goner.A@mm.

The Molly Adventures - Molly made her Dad proud, and she brought a tear to her Mum's eye when she debuted on stage on Saturday night at Sommerville House . Wow what a show! There were 210 young performers in a variety of dance acts during the evening. It was all great to watch, but we were there for only one reason. Molly performed in a group of 20 or 30 "tiny tots" on stage strutting their stuff to "Boot Scooting Baby". The audience really got involved with the littlies act, and they clapped along to the beat and laughed at the antics in the routine and their "bum dance". I must say Molly was for sure the most cutest one ( hey, but I'm not biased, am I?) I felt a bit weird, being the only one , out of the audience of hundreds of people, to rush up the aisles and kneel next to the front row to grab some shots of their child. I didn't care though - there was NO WAY I was going to miss photographing this. To top the whole evening off, we also won the first prize in the raffle , winning a huge hamper filled with loads of goodies, including 5 bottles of wine! Took two of us to carry it to the car. Even without the hamper, I felt I was a real winner for sure, up on cloud 9. Well the rest of the week seems pale in comparison, but on Sunday we went to the Cleveland markets, and went for lunch at Cleveland Point with friends. On Tuesday, I managed to leave work early (4pm) and take Molly to the Yeronga pool to cool off. Next weekend we will be busier than ever....
