Temporary New Home

Some new details.. these are more current than the ones below.

Watching as things Develop!
Contact Details Editor: Paul Schulz (pauls@mawsonlakes.org)
Why this change? I have left my job in Technology Park at CAE MRad (although I will be around during the day doing some contract work for them). This meant that I had to find a temporary home for it.
Where is the site now? The site has been shifted to an account at Chariot. They have very resonable rates and had the account setup almost instantly.

Does anyone know… ?

Just a quick report from the Mawson Lakes Quiz night that was held at Endeavour College, oh.. a long time ago now.

Thank you again to to all our sponsors and to all the people who came. It was a very enjoyable evening. I have a couple of comments from the scorers, Beck and Fiona..

  • Joan of Arc was 19 when she was killed.
  • It has been checked, and only two of you got it right and this didn’t effect the final placings.
  • We’re sorry the questions were too hard. We designed them to be challenging, and obviously they were.
  • Apologies for the scavenger hunt stuff-up. We didn’t realise that there were proper prizes put away for it.

As planned, the event didn’t make any money, but it did go to show what could be done. A thank you also to Endeavour College for letting us use their building.

I’ve just been handed this late notice:

WANTED: 2 organisers for next years Quiz Night. Must be well organised, able to answer questions (as well as ask them). Applications can be submitted to the Social Committee.

Apologies for the delay..

There haven’t been any updates placed here for some time. This has been due to several compounding factors; a change of job, involment in running a quiz night and trying to get a house built.

Thank you for you patience. Please look out for the next Mawson Lakes Bulletin in you letter box. We have one now.. Beck built it out of leftover bricks.

Looking for a Door Intercom?

Posted by C M James

In my search for the correct door intercom system to suit our requirements for our new home, I discovered many types available. Of them all, Door Guard seemed to offer the most value.

The system is permanently wired, no batteries required and suitable for new or existing homes. The unit is flush mounted, with electronic door chimes, illuminated push button and auto level control, consisting of one door station and one room station, plus it can be expanded. The room stations are available in six decorator colours and the door station in two colours.

The basic system does not include installation or wiring, however, it may be safely installed and wired by the handy person, using colour coded cable at approximately $1 per metre. This is a door answering system only, however, if you wish to communicate between rooms, there is a variety of options in the Multicom range.
