who me?


I figured I would introduce myself .............. I can't refute what dilly dolly has said about me, or you. I thought I would say something about myself ........... and let other posters make up their own minds who to believe.


At the same time, I will keep an eye on what dolly dilly is saying, and if I see anything about us ................... I have my plans


I don't have to do much more nicey nicey .............. they've seen my name, seen that I like privacy, probably had a look at my profile page ................... and had a chance to compare me with what dilly dolly said.

............... and I can carry on helping on there, IF that seems to go OK.

I think there's a competition to put likes



I had to laugh yesterday ..... there were 2 almost completely opposing statements, and the same person had clicked like on both of them!

I have the tv on in the background .

................ it's the first game of the first round of the ice hockey playoffs leading up to the Stanley Cup.

There are four rounds, each one with a maximum of 7 games. The play-offs go on until into June!


Vancouver's team should (and underline should) hopefully have a good chance of winning it all ....... and this is when i start getting interested in hockey!


Big cheers when someone scores, and I turn around to see what I've missed!

Oooh I've just discovered that one of the top Footballers in Australia (not Soccer, Australian Rules) is my second cousin!

He has a medal struck in his honour and each year the player who kicks the most goals in a season. LOL not very exciting to most of you, but I have not got anyone well known in my tree so I was quite excited!!!!

You never known what you'll turn over with this hobby!

SylviaInCanada Report 14 Apr 2011 04:42

Hi Grace

that IS exciting!

Australian Rules is an incredible game!

The son of one of my first cousins played Aussie Rules in Adelaide in the late 70s.



Do you remember (or remember hearing about) a horse called Arwon, won the Melbourne Cup around 1980-ish?


Another of my first cousins and her husband owned shares in him. They're now over 80, and still living in Qld


Problem was ........... Arwon was a gelding, so they couldn't make lots of money out him after his racing days were over! Not sure what did happen to him




I had 5 cousins, sisters, who emigrated to Oz (on the £10 scheme) between about 1958 and 1965 or so). 3 of them are still alive.

well, well

I've just googled Arwon

Arwon (foaled 8 September 1973, died 25 May 2007) was a New Zealand bred Thoroughbred racehorse, by Aritzo from Fair Flash, who won the 1978 Melbourne Cup at 5 years of age. In New Zealand he was known, and raced as Flash Guy.

The name 'Arwon,' was made from reversing the word Nowra, a town in New South Wales where one of the syndicate that owned him lived

He retired to life in the New South Wales mounted police and later lived at Gympie before it was agreed [in 1992] that [former trainer George] Hanlon could look after him.





My cousin and her husband were part of the Canberra-based syndicate that owned him .................. and have lived near Nowra for the last 20 years or so!
