My mother passed away…

Finally this day has come, my mother passed away last Tuesday, 23rd September, 2008. I have prepared myself for it since I spent almost the whole month with her in the hospital in April this year. Since then she had been in and out the hospital for 4 times and every single time it was in intensive care. She was just discharged from the hospital about 5-6 days before she’s gone. It was very hard for my dad to experience her last peaceful breath. It is very sad to think that from now on I will never see her ever again.

I thought I could save life…

Yesterday afternoon, I went out to my garden to pick some runner beans and green beans for Pepper and just before I came back in, I noticed something was moving on the lawn.

I went back in and started cooking for Pepper.

The reason for this is because they use an attribute called ‘name’ in pre tag, which is not a valid attribute for this tag.

aumlette’s new design

I just launched a new design of aumlette.me.uk today. I have been working with this new design for about 4 weeks. When I redesigned my website this time, I realised that if I were a customer, I must be a very fussy customer. I have changed my mind so many times.

I moved the posts about my drawing and painting to under Hobbies page. It should be more organise than before. I hope you enjoy my new design.
