Feistiness must run in the family! Good Queen - good luck with the detox. Hope you fix it before Tuesday. Wow- only 3 sleeps for you! Waves to everyone else. X Anna

Good evening Wattlers . . . a lovely win . . . working up to the big one next week . . !!!!! Great to see Pos has you back online Yvette . . . really miss you !! Butter butter Queenie . . . hope you have managed to get rid of the problem on the puter! I swear by Zone Alarm and AVG (two freebies). . have a few others on here as well . . . but they seem to be always telling me that they have rejected something or other. I have had a wonderful day . . . I am so blessed TLR & I went off to the shops this morning, with a list of things to do! . . . but only got to pick up the new cartridges for the printer! Ended up driving around the city. Sydney harbour was a mass of sails . . . towsands of the little blighters - a mass of colour - a spectacular sight. We had another look at the little house we think the gtgrandparents lived in in Piper Street and then found a lovely little coffee shop among a quaint little street of terrace houses, and sat for a while to watch the world go by. More driving around the southern beaches, around Botany Bay - TLR snuk in a gate at Port Botany and got me up close to the giraffes so I could get a better idea of what was what. Till we saw the Customs man coming around and knew we had better move before we were asked to. Then . . we drove down to a beach around near the airport and the loveliest sight! Two horses were out swimming - when they had had a good frolick in the water, they came onto the beach with their owners and had the best time rolling in the sand. The didn't want to stop - the noises they were making sounded so much like laughter, they would roll around then get up and have a laugh and down they would go again. I was splitting my sides with them as was everyone within cooee. Back to the Balcoonie and the loveliest dinner, BBQ Barra and baby Octopus, with a lovely crisp salad and a bottle of bubbles. All I had to do was assist with the salad and select the wine . . . such hard things to do LOL Feeling very spoilt . . . or is that appreciated . . . teeheee Coffee is brewing . . . so best go pour . . . luv Laurie xo

Hey Printheth Lew Lew, Grand Aunty of Mudgee . . . What you doing girl . . . Did Tez leave you so many chores to do that you haven't got time to play ???? Signed Printheth Laurie Grand Aunty to 56, Great Grand Aunty to 11 (See what happens when you are second youngest of 10) teeheeeeeee

Yep Joodles . . . No new dryer yet . . . but we have done the research and decided what we are doing!!! Its on the agenda for tomorrow unless something more exciting turns up!! teeheee Your right again . . . no camera, but we did decide to go tomorrow and buy a new one to keep in the car for those unexpected moments that turn up. Its unreal how much the digital cameras have come down in price isn't it. luv Laurie

Errr - was Ray turning you away from the Good Guys so you couldnt buy a new Dryer Laurie lol (I bet you both forgot all about it) Sounds like a lovely day - bet you didn't have your camera with you :(( Gwenda - I would be a blithering mess if we won lotto - I tell you -honest!!!!!!!!!!!! And the phone would run hot! Almost off to bed now Night all Jood

Congrats to Belinda and family, and of course to grand Aunty Lew. Nice to see you back on line Yvette. Mild night darn sarf, so we are off on our nightly walk. Catcha ron. Tony Oz...:>))

Laurie - I have a small credit card size camera - I carry it in my handbag at all times. You just never know. Once it was just to take a pic of my car for which I was booked for parking crookedly - sheesh! I was going to send it into thems that be, but got scared when it came time to pay - they then said, that since the amount had been paid, the matter was closed - the rats!! The cam is not so good inside, but takes quite good pics outside. Jood

Hi Wattlers :-) Still around lolol There's someone called Diane looking for help with something to do with Australia. I've advised her to post on here so if you can look out for her that'd be great. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ to all ;-) Catxx

Well, that was an invigorating walk ( i think ). Either Barb and i are slowing down, or Sarah is walking faster...? Yes....must be Sarah is walking faster......gotta be the answer. Hiya Julie Cat...:>)) Have a great day mate. Just after midnight here in Victoria. Lots of helpful Ozzie's on here Diane, so lets have your question, and see what we can do to help. Tony Oz...:>)) * ready for a loooooong night at the puter *

Hi Tony, I think Australia is just to the East of Rottnest and I too have heard a rumour that it is inhabited by friendly, helpful people - so long as you're not a POM. Of course the other great claim to fame of Australia is that it is the home of the Mighty West Coast Eagles! Best wishes to all. Ian

G'day Ian. Hows things mate. Had to ammend my post. Dont want to frighten peeps off, but you know us Ozzies mate. Happy one day....Happier the next...lol Most Ozzies are Poms, Scots, Welsh, or Irish mate. Its just that we got bigger back yards than our Ancestors and cousins.....lol West Coast Eagles.!!!...sorry, never heard of e'm.....:>))) Have a good un. Cheers. Tony Oz...:>))

Morning Jood & Fanny - the early risers and hi to all other Wattlers still in the land of Nod Our storm last night gave us around 23ml but think Vonny's side of town only got 5 My lodger, Herbert the huntsman is keeping me on my toes - couldn't find him at all yesterday until I was going to bed and he was in the doorway between the dining and kitchen - needless to say I went around the long way to the kitchen - lol Today he's back in the kitchen. Off to the salt mine again today so I'll catch up this arvo Have a great day everyone - we are expecting more rain (((((hugs))))) and ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gwenda

A very good morning to one and all We had 36 mls of rain overnight - the tank is full again! We are happy little vegemites. Poor duckers has had a very painful knee and has had to take to her bed but she is getting better. She has to be right for Mudgee. She says she will be back on the thread to say hello soon. Have a great day everyone - Poms played a good game of cricket on Friday night so the Ozzie team had best rise to the occasion today. X Anna

my home email address is working. have dealt with o/e. thanks for the lotto list jood. would you be able to send me the Wattle excel list too please , so I can establish an address book again too . After being up early, there was no one about so had another couple of hours sleep. hi Anna and Gwenda love Yvette x

Anna - thats good about the rainfall you had. We have had some showers here in the mountains too. Gwenda - I don't mind Huntsman spiders so long I know where they are. I hate it when they move and I can't find them :(( .. But I would really rather have the place to myself! Yvette your wattler list on its way. Pam - hope your knee gets better soon. Give it some healing thoughts! And tell your knee you are going to Mudgee and it better behave itself! (Whether we behave ourselves in Mudgee is beside the point). Back to the h*******k Jood

Morning all Just had a phone call from the Ith Printheth and she wanted to let everyone know she is off line AGAIN. Had a massive electrical storm last night and knocked out the exchange or somefink but she still has a phone connection. Lew is not a happy little vegemite as she has to wait 2 business days for Telstra to fix the problem. She is going to go into town to try and use a friend's puta.... Jood, knee is improving but I have to remember to take my pills !!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~ to everyone Luv and hugs Ducky

Morning Wattlers, I see we are on the way to winning the big one with all the extra tickets we can get, good effort Leah. We had quite a few heavy showers of rain throughout the night which was lovely but not being used to the noise it kept me awake most of the night....never happy are we??? I've spent the past couple of hours scraping labels off jars for my neices school fete.....wish I wasnt so lazy and did it when the jars were first emptied....it becomes hard work when you've got boxes of them to do.....lol Was going to sit and do FH today but someone's alarm has been going for over an hour and driving me nuts so think I'll go visit my girlfriend for a coffee for some peace and quiet. Have a great day everyone and Ducky look after that knee cause you're coming to MM even if someone has to push you around....sure Lew will have something we could use...she must have a wheelbarrow............................. Flakey
