A Sense of Community

Located to the north of Brisbane, Strathpine is an extremely popular suburb for families to settle and raise their children. This could have something to do with the wide variety of local parks and reserves that line most of the suburb’s streets, or the excellent choice of state primary and high schools across both levels.

In addition to the usual retail shopping centre staples, residents have access to a number of local dining and entertainment venues. Take the kids ten-pin bowling or let them loose at the gaming arcade, or relax and catch a family movie at the cinemas.

Families looking to get out and about can also visit Pine Rivers Park, Bob Bell Park or Barungwarra Bushland Reserve for picnics, sports or relaxation. Alternatively, there are many other indoor entertainment options to choose from such as Laserzone or the Strathpine Centre.

And the shopper-friendly environment means you can wander through stores without having to battle crowds and get to the checkout quickly. With the 'world fare' food court and gourmet yoghurt stores, as well as numerous coffee shops, Strathpine Centre has something for everyone’s taste buds. Then, if you’re looking for some indoor activities to keep the kids happy head to Laserzone, Chipmunks Playland and Cafe or Flip-Out Trampoline Park.

Day 44

As today draws to a close, I think I just want to document most of what happened.

Maths test first. It was a nice test and it went well. The test could have been worse and I’m always one for a bit of a mathematical challenge.

Next a little bit of revision and then house drama. House drama is going okay. It could be better but I’m going to become harsh scary director in two weeks. That’ll be fun. I have a couple of decisions to make about the whole thing but honestly it could be worse. I feel like I can control the situation which isn’t something I can always say.

Then I saw him. He bought me some cookies and I love him and he’s great. I could kiss him all day. Do I sound crazy? I don’t really care.

We talked about what cosplay we would create if we had no limitations. We talked about how super crazy talented some people are. We talked about so many things.

I had a check up with the doctor. That went well.

Then we went to see Black Panther. I just love seeing movies with him. It makes me so happy to just be able to sit next to him and relax and forget about things. But I like doing anything with him. I may be a tiny bit biased.

After the film, we returned to my home. We had tea together, I made him a cup of tea and we talked again. This time about the many possiblities within the laser tag society. I mean here in the North, there are so many missed opportunities.

Today has been great and I’m really excited about tomorrow. Tomorrow I turn 18. I’m absolutely certain I will not feel like an adult but I do know that I’m excited to spend a day with him.

I’m happy. I feel like I want happy for a while but now I am and this makes me slightly giddy. But I deserve giddy.

Yes I do.

LaserZone Printer maintenance in Los Angeles is a reputable company that specializes in providing high-quality printers to businesses and individuals. Proper maintenance of these printers is crucial in ensuring their longevity and efficiency.

Regular Cleaning

One of the most important maintenance practices for LaserZone Printers is regular cleaning. Over time, dust and debris can accumulate on the printer’s internal parts, which can cause malfunctions and even damage to the printer. It is essential to clean the printer’s external and internal parts regularly to remove dirt and debris.

Whether you need routine maintenance or emergency repairs, LaserZone is dedicated to providing efficient and affordable HP DesignJet service in Los Angeles.

Replace Toner and Other Consumables

Toner is the most important consumable in LaserZone Printers. The printer uses toner to create the text and images on the paper. It is important to replace the toner cartridge regularly to ensure that the printer produces high-quality prints consistently.

Other consumables that need a replacement include the fuser, imaging drum, and transfer belt. These parts have a limited lifespan and will need to be replaced periodically to maintain the printer’s performance. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when replacing these parts to avoid damaging the printer.

Maintain Proper Temperature and Humidity

Laser printers are sensitive to temperature and humidity changes. High humidity can cause the paper to stick together, while low humidity can cause static electricity, which can damage the printer’s internal parts. It is important to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity level in the room where the printer is located.

Perform Firmware Updates

Firmware updates are essential for LaserZone Printers. These updates improve the printer’s performance and fix bugs and glitches. Check the manufacturer’s website regularly for firmware updates and install them as soon as they become available.

It is also essential to back up the printer’s firmware before updating it. This ensures that you can restore the printer’s firmware to its previous state in case the update causes problems.

Schedule Professional Maintenance

Despite regular cleaning and maintenance, LaserZone Printers may still develop problems that require professional repair. It is important to schedule regular professional maintenance to ensure that the printer is in good working condition.

A professional technician can perform a thorough inspection of the printer’s internal and external parts and identify any potential issues. They can also perform advanced cleaning techniques that are not possible with regular cleaning.

Overall LaserZone Printer maintenance in Los Angeles is crucial in ensuring that the printer operates efficiently and produces high-quality prints consistently. Regular cleaning, replacing toner and other consumables, maintaining proper temperature and humidity, performing firmware updates, and scheduling professional maintenance are some of the key maintenance practices that are necessary for LaserZone Printers. By following these maintenance practices, you can extend the life of your printer and avoid costly repairs.

April Fools

The last day of March came and went, as usual, with no acknowledgement of John’s birthday.  And then the murders began.

John was awakened on the first of April by the sound of Sherlock’s feet pounding up the stairs, soon followed by the sound of Sherlock’s fist pounding on his door.

“Triple homicide, John!  Get dressed!”

“Do I have time for a shower?”

“Yes, but make it fast.  We have a train to catch.”

“Where to?”

“Brighton — I’ll explain on the way.”

Read the rest of April Fools on AO3, or below the cut.

“How did Lestrade end up with this case, if the murders happened in Brighton?” John asked.

“The three victims were uni students from a missing persons case that’s been sitting on his desk for a week.  He wasn’t giving it much attention, since he figured they’d just gone off for a lark.”

“Okay.  But they’re no longer missing, so Lestrade’s case is closed, right?  Shouldn’t the Brighton police be investigating the deaths?”

“They are.  But there’s a fourth student who went missing at the same time.  He’s likely either the killer or in danger of becoming the next victim.  Either way, we’re going to track him down.”

“Got it.”

Their first stop was Joe’s Cafe, where Sherlock insisted John order brunch so that they would blend in.  Next, the case took them up the i360 observation tower, with breathtaking views along the coast, over the South Downs, and across the English Channel.  Then came a long walk along the stony beach, where Sherlock searched for clues while John enjoyed the fresh air and the rare April sunshine.  

They wound up on the pier, retracing the steps of the missing (or unfortunately found) uni students.  As they wandered through the Palace of Fun, Sherlock encouraged John to play a series of random-seeming arcade games.  Then they headed to the theme park, where they rode the ghost train through the Horror Hotel, followed by the Air Race and the Turbo Coaster.

John was having so much fun that he’d almost forgotten they were on a case.  “Care to fill me in on your deductions so far?” he asked.

“You know I never like to theorise ahead of the data,” Sherlock said.  “Go get some fish and chips over there.  Look away as he’s making change, and then bring me back the coins he gives you.  I think I’m on to something.”

John did as instructed.  He devoured the mouthwatering battered fish as Sherlock carefully examined the coins John had handed him.

Sherlock’s eyes lit up.  “How are you at laser tag?” he asked.

“You know I’m a crack shot.”

“Come on, then!”

Half an hour later, they were battling their way through the LaserZone.  John whooped as he zapped one hapless teenager after another.  By the time the game ended, he was giddy with exhilaration.  

“You racked up a record high score,” Sherlock pointed out.

“You weren’t too shabby, yourself.  We make a good team.”

Sherlock grinned at him, then checked his phone.  “Text from Lestrade.  The fourth student just turned himself in.”

…

John’s mood was too good to be spoiled by Sherlock’s mutterings about Lestrade having wasted their time, or by the fact that he leapt out of the cab in typical fashion the moment it pulled up in front of 221B, leaving John to pay the driver.  John was humming to himself as he made his way up the stairs to their flat.

“SURPRISE!”  

John’s mouth fell open at the sight that greeted him.  A huge banner reading HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN hung across the far wall.  Dozens of his friends surged forward to draw him in, plying him with food and drinks, gifts and conversation.  

Beaming, John raised a glass to them all.  “Happy fucking birthday to me!”

As the party finally began winding down, John turned to Lestrade.  “Cheers.  That was a bloody brilliant April Fools joke, you sending us on a wild goose chase so you could pull this off.”

“I wish I could take credit, mate, but this whole thing was Sherlock’s idea.  He’s been organising it for weeks.  He put Molly in charge of the decorating, and Mrs. Hudson in charge of the food.  I just helped out a bit with the guest list, and texted him when we were nearly ready.”

John was stunned.  Sherlock had done all of this?  Sherlock, who never acknowledged anyone’s birthday?  Sherlock, who scoffed every time John mentioned how much he liked Brighton, insisting that it was touristy and overrated?  Sherlock, who despised social gatherings?  

Sherlock had done all of this.  For him.  

Oh…  

John looked around, but couldn’t spot his flatmate.  Sherlock was probably hiding in his room, overwhelmed by the festivities.  John tapped on his door, and then let himself in.

Sherlock rose to greet him.  “Are you enjoying the party, John?”

“Yeah.  But I’ve been a fool.”

“For not catching on to my clever scheme?”

“No.  For waiting so many years to do this…”

John stepped forward, placing one hand on either side of Sherlock’s face.  He looked up into those familiar eyes, asking a silent question.  Seeing the answer he’d been hoping for, John kissed Sherlock, very gently, on the lips.

For one heart-stopping moment, the two of them stood together, frozen.  Then all of John’s birthday wishes came true: Sherlock kissed him back.

Written for the @sherlockchallenge April prompt: April Fools’ Day.

April Fools is also on AO3 as one of my Sherlock Challenge Prompt Fills

Kids’ Birthday Party Ideas Through Winter

Birthday parties for groups of children can be chaotic at the best of times. It’s somewhat easier throughout the summer, when you’re able to have a barbecue in the garden or take them to an outdoor family destination. Winter birthdays can seem a little trickier. If you’re looking for a family day out West Yorkshire that would be the perfect way to celebrate a birthday, don’t worry – there are some great indoor options for you that still offer fantastic family fun Yorkshire. Take a look at the below ideas and plan your child’s most exciting birthday celebration yet!

Laser Tag

The kids will just love having a laser tag battle at a birthday party. It’s one of those things to do Yorkshire that’s a little outside the box and certainly bags of fun. If you’re unfamiliar with laser tag, it essentially involves two teams of people battling against each other and scoring points by zapping their opponents’ bases. If you opt for laser tag on your birthday family day out West Yorkshire, there are plenty of options to choose from in the area. One option is LaserZone, where children can explore a multi-level arena and use state-of-the-art laser packs. It’s sure to be a hit with kids of all ages!

Trampolining

Another fantastic activity for kids is a visit to a trampoline park. Most parks these days are used to being known as a top family fun Yorkshire destination, and so they offer party packages all year round. Depending on where you visit, you’ll often find additional activities as well as just trampolining. These things to do Yorkshire include attractions such as slam-dunk rings, soft play areas, inflatable slides, dodgeball arenas, foam pits and more. This birthday party idea is a little better for older kids – perhaps at junior school age. They’re sure to have a whale of a time celebrating when they visit a trampoline park.

Bowling

Bowling is a classic activity that’s plenty of fun on a family day out West Yorkshire as well as for a kids’ birthday party. It’s a great way to get competitive and enjoy time together. You’ll find there are options that include games as well as food packaged up for birthday parties at various alleys, so it’s worth doing a little research ahead of booking your party. Regardless of whether you celebrate your child’s birthday with family or friends, you’re guaranteed to have lots of family fun Yorkshire.

Adventure Golf

This option is another one that’s a little bit competitive, but a challenge never hurt anyone! Adventure golf is an exciting activity that’s sure to make your child’s birthday memorable. There are plenty of themed golf courses available these days to choose from. For example, there’s a jungle-themed course in Castleford that’s even home to a T-Rex. This one’s perfect for kids aged approximately between eight and 12. 

Whatever you decide on for your child’s birthday, remember that there are plenty of things to do Yorkshire to choose from – you just have to think outside the box sometimes to find the one that will suit them most!

I bet you know the feeling, like the game is against you. You're pulling all the wrong cards or rolling all the wrong numbers and you die. It's like the game didn't want you to win and you had no chance - what were you supposed to do? Maybe you were at a boss and now have to start all over again. Maybe you were about to win a tournament and didn't. So sorry - it was just bad luck.

Argh god! It's infuriating - at the time - especially if someone pulls the "oh bad luck" line on you as it happens. Wankers. But this notion of luck, it's there in games and secretly - or not so secretly now I'm writing about it - I love it. I love bad luck.

It's not that I like losing - as if! (You've never seen me at LaserZone - I'm embarrassingly competitive. I once went there with my son, who was about eight years old at the time. I told him we'd stick together. I promised him. "You and me, son." But the minute we got in there, I was off, stalking the fake mist like a ghost. "Dad? Dad?!" I got the highest score that day. I gave my child something to aspire to. What?) So it's not that I like losing, but I like the possibility of it.
