Merle...we've got rellies down Albany way, at Narrikup. They're selling up soon and moving into Albany proper....was there a fortnight ago, visiting ,during an impromptu drive-about in the motorhome. So sad to see so many frizzled farmlands on the way south....worse now, I guess after the fires.

Maybe that explains why her knee has been sore the last few days.....ooopppsss! TX

Hi Jill. Oooooh....... i would love to be in London right now. Enjoy your holiday with daughter, and have a great time in Ireland. Tony Oz.....:>))) * who can still taste the spuds of a little pub in Tralee....... soaking in sweet chilli sauce*....Yumm

Yeah Trifley - looking for a frenly face - surely I'll bump into at least ONE Wattler!!! Hey, how much did we win last night?? Hi Jill ~~~~~~~~~~~ Kppd

hello all, should i be surprised at how that bloomin mongrel gets about. worse than the internet virus!!!! duck has the right idea kick it hard. its been raining still here proper rain . guage says18 mm in the back yard. thought about buckets , but the ground on which they stand needs it too. just been out with the junk mail in the stop for rain at the cricket. kiddies and poss are well ready for bed, but i've been on my bum for the arvo, so still have a little oomph left in me. oh jilly you're o/s how wonderful. love and kisses and hugs to everyone from Yvette x

$32 bucks and 25 cents...Jood or..$1 and 50cents each..lol Tony Oz..:>))

Oh Merle Lock that flaming dog in his kennel - he's not the sort of dog you want around. If he pokes his ugly muzzle in again, just come on here and we'll help you chase the rotten mongrel away. (((((hugz)))))) Hi Jilly - have a wonderful time. I love Ireland. Jood - Ducks and I will be around Mudgee on Friday. I'll send you my mobile number. We'll have to find out from the Printheth where the good coffee shops are so we can track down the Royal party. Tony -like your idea of the pub site. Good one. Printheth Lew is spittin chips because she was waiting for a pickle of the new Leila bub. And now her internet connection is down. Better send positive thoughts to Telstra so they get out there and fix it. Iron is beeping - gotta go! Cricket is dismal - better send positive thoughts to the Ozzie cricketers too! XX Anna

Dear oh me Merle . . . That flammin dog !!! That b of a black hole . . . !! Sending you lots of positive thoughts and hugz xoxo Yippeee . . . J'aroo finally got a msg on . . . hopefully we will hear more from her when she gets back to London . . . wouldn't I just love to be in her shoes off to Ireland tomorrow too. Not the end of the cricket that we would have liked here - but not up to it on the night so they weren't. Think the Aussie lads may have had just a bit too much cricket, now off to NZ on Wednesday. Countdown now for the Mudgee bound . . . excitement is building . . . suitcases getting dusted off . . . packing lists are being made. I just hope and pray that Lew has prepared Mudgee!! Which is just as well . . because we have had to deal with some dissapointment this weekend that has knocked a bit of wind out of our sails - major atemps all weekend to try and not let it get us down. We can't go to Turkey for Anzac this year! TLR's major customer has pulled a trade conference for the same time frame . . . I have been through the angers - not sure how much of our plans have gone out the window - just know its been real hard to get our heads around it all when we had made so many plans. Any other customer but this one and TLR would have just got someone else to take care of it . . . Several consolation offers have been made by TLR . . . just leaving it for a couple of days till we have more info on timeframes before choices are made. Orf to bed . . . so Nigh nite - sleep well - sweet dreams luv Laurie

Hi Wattles I´m a virgin to this site, so be gentle with me, but anybody who drinks Baileys has got to be OK I´m from UK, but have lived in Spain for 20years, and was invited to chat by SuzyQ, but I think I´ll probably need an Aussie dictionary, bear with me I´ll get there. I am tracing decendants deported to Aussie for taking part in The Pentrich Revolution 1817, I won`t bore everyone with all the details, just ask pretty pretty please anyone got any connections. Got to go and check my washing machine has finished, more bl..dy ironing. Speak to you soon, Hasta La Vista Wattles Marilyn

Hi Marilyn, Welcome! Personally I've never heard of the Pentrich Revolution, and I thought I knew my history :( I did find a family history centre here in NSW who might be able to help E-mail the Kiama Family History Centre (Contact - Mr. Ray Thorburn) fhc at tpgi(.)com(.)au (take the brackets out and use the 'a' symbol) I did discover 14 were transported to NSW - but still looking for the names. One was George Weightman, another Josiah Godber Anyway, hopefully one of our group can help you further, good luck Morning all - off out early today. Laurie, sorry to hear the bad news. I can imagine how very disappointed you are. Jood

gosh what was that, who was that, why it was Fanny flashing in and flashing out, have a good day Fanny 7.50am and only two awake Shaz

I was awake - just not getting put of bed! back to the dentist for me today :( ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ morning all Vonny

Morning All . . . Shaz . . . you know I'm up !!! (same reason as you . . got to get them lads off to work haven't we!) Its blowing a gale here on Botany Bay . . .But still plenty to look out at . . . ships are still moving about and planes are still flying in and out. 7 giraffe heads lost in the clouds. But shock horror . . . I dont have a spot out of the weather on the balcoonie - and its water logged! Think I will make myself another coffee, and contemplate what I will do for the rest of the day. Hope your all having a good one luv Laurie

Morning Printeth Loz, knew youd be up, thought I might have jostled a few others awake, like Jood for instance, pouring again out here, must go ring the builder (AGAIN) and have a discussion (words) as to whether they will come back and rectify this window problem, me thinks Im in for a hard time, blasted thing has been ongoing for past two years, WISH THEY'D FIX the problem, dont think carpenter they have is fully qualified, so if no results, might have to resort to Fair Trading, see how that sits with them Morning Vonny, hope your day doesnt turn out too badly at the dentist, BLAH, me no like that word Catch u later, must make phone call Shaz

Shaz, If all else fails, have you thought of an indoor pool ??? Would look lovely there in the front room, imagine what you could do with the Chrisssy decos around a pool . . . Santa on a raft . . . Swans carrying elf . . . Fairy lights under water . . . Good luck . . . luv Laurie
