I cant believe you guys. I'm sitting quietly in the study reading back, trying not to wake Jess who is working tonight. your embarassing moments are too much, I've just about fallen of the chair laughing, of course Jess is now awake... My moment isnt as good but here goes: Iused to work in kmart during school hols, my dad wanted a new stereo so I said go and see the man in the stereo dept he's a nice guy and wont rip you off. That night get home and here is the stereo and a pile of new records,all ok . Next day at work the head of the elect dept calls out to me, so I go over to say thanks for helping dad.. well apparently dad talked his way into a halfprice stereo and all the records for free and the poor guy still hadn't figured out how he had done it..........but that was dad Another one.....I'm in grade one. Dad opens the mail that night and there is a picture of an amazing house in Qld 'whats that Dad' 'Thats our new house' Show and tell next day 'We are moving to Qld' By the time I got home from school the headmaster had been down to see Mum, Half the mothers in the school had called in to get the goss and dads boss was wanting to know what was going on. Well Dad didnt tell me he had to buy tickets and win the place first did he??? Flakey

Back again . . . can anyone who has Leah as a contact see if they can send her a pm please . . . I have just tried and it is coming back telling me I can't do that !! I have sent her an email (it hasn't bounced back) and am waiting for a reply, Tony mentioned that he had the Lotto come back to him so starting to worry about her. Best get off to the shops - the thunder is making the day even sound yukky!! cheers luv Laurie

Hi all again - nice to see you all up and about - half the day gone already!!! Surprise Laurie, I'm home today. Not raining here, but hard to predict what is going to happen. .. Certainly no sun around, tho I am not cold. Better get a move on <she says to herself> Jood

I emailed Leah the other day re the Casino - the email hasn't come back, nor has she replied. .. But she did msg me from Alice Springs weeks and weeks ago and said to count her in for the Meet. Sandra, do you know where she lives? Jood

I just remembered I had Leah's mobile number, so I phoned her - left a message and she called me back. She says she is OK, but wont be at the Casino meet - she is going back to Darwin that weekend to look after the grandchildren while her daughter is away. Joodles, Leah said she would answer your email re the meet, she only got to read it last night. Catch ya's luv Laurie

good lunch time wattlers, not me deleting. when I looked in, I thought that you had yakked stacks and added heaps to the thread - derr-. Isn't it funny that the emb. moments just about all involve revealing moments. Mine is the same. At the beach decided to take respectable mother cossie to walk home in, usually put it on to go for a swim if theres too many people about. I thought the kids would be impressed instead of them pretending that I don't belong to them. Well instead of just popping it on over the top of the others I took the others off first. Walking back along the beach, i'm thinking theres something not quite right -errr, it crackled. ripped the swimmers off, much to the amusement of the increasing crowd, and shook out dead cockroach. Thats how much i actually wore those swimmers. But then realised was standing there starkers, realising too later maybe it was a bit late to start dressing like a respectable mother. love Yvette x

We have a new rain gauge. From 4 am until 10.30 am we have had 8 mm rain in Shellharbour. At 4 am old dog woke me up to tell me there was thunder and to get the washing off the line. He's a very smart dog. Hope all the poorly pets are feeling better today. Love Yvette xx

Just making the most of the moment. When people get sin binned for being 'orrible, do all their bits get deleted? I have removed all contact details for 1 person particular person, maybe if they did the same that would remove all their additions? dunno love me again xxx

Not sure Yvette if that person has been suspended, but I did wonder if that person was the one who deleted, luv Jillx

Afternoon Wattlers and how are we all today. It's only 8.6C here at the moment and feels like it's going to rain. bbrrrrrr How'd the retail therapy go, Laurie? What did ya buy? Jood, you at home!!! I don't believe it, lol. I think the thread puller may be Fitz. He knows we're onto him. Anna, the potato and parsnip mash if just like making mashed potato. You can also had some freshly chopped parsley. Hello to everyone else. Off to get some lunch. Lew Lew xxx

Time for me to buzz off, have work waiting. I've had a bit of fun on the boards seeing its cold and raining outside. Jill, maybe you would like to rescue me from the 'whose swallowed the dictionary' (hee hee) Lew, your thoughts were the same as mine, I was just discreet - not now though. Funny thought - deleting all their bits. love from Yvette xx

You're up late today Madam Lew????? Yes, - I'm home - who in their right mind would go out in the pouring rain??? .. My card is almost bent in half anyway, so I couldn't shop even if I wanted to :( Miserable day .. would go looking for chockies in the house to eat, but already done that - none left :( Census form finally arrived. .. Bet Duffy Fluck is worn off her feet. Jood

That was so funny Jood, here was Yvette and I being discreet and Lew Lew comes straight out with it, good on you Lew! Cheers Jillx

Well you know our Lew lew - straight to the point .. pmsl Jood

Afternoon all :) Jood, just be careful when you use Spoonerisms!! LOL I just glanced quickly through and Duffy Fluck wasn't what I read!!! oooops. Our census has arrived and my lady didn't say anything about box number 60 so I asked her and told her she should encourage everyone to fill it in.!! Not entirely sure she appreciated my well intentioned advice. lol My most embarrassing (yukky) moment occurred when I was a teenager and in the Sea Rangers (older Girl Guides 15+) we had a meeting at our leader's house and I was talking to her and laughed about something and suddenly all this snotty stuff poured out of my nose!! I was mortified as only a teenager can be!!!!!! Didn't know which way to turn and no hanky ready!! It's a simply gorgeous day today - you wouldn't believe it could follow yesterday. We had rain in the night though. ~~~~~~~~~` off to play, Vonny

Hello you crazy lot Honestly, im glad my stomach is better now, because after reading all those embarrassing moments, I dont think I would have been able to sit straight, I am still laughing To all you wonderful people asking about me, Thank You All I am doing just fine now, will find out next week when I have xray if they pick up anything Hey Fanny thanks for the offer of being my driver, but as you will see I am going to be able to make it on my own two legs Well Ive been naughty as I have already filled in half of the sensus form, just have to wait until 8th to finish in case any one comes a visiting Found a couple of hot matches so am off to send emails Going down coast this weekend so catch all you nice peeps on Monday Will wait till meet to tell embarrassing moment Ooo Roo Shaz

Now I know why you were laughing Yvette, I creased up when I found out what it meant, for those of you who haven't looked in on the dictionary thread Yvette posted the word Merkin, it means an artficial covering of hair for the pubic area. Where did you find that one or do you actually own one, psml, no don't tell me, lol Cheers Jillx

Good afternoon Wattlers, Well birth certificate arrived today and I have just proved my first b*****d. There is probably more, but this one I have proof of. Her mother was very naughty had 2 children with out fathers. She did eventually marry and went on to have at least 4 more children. Nothing much has change, grandparents looked after the 2 kids back then. Read through the census form today and I ws dissappointed that only first given name is required. Will make it hard for FH in hundred years time. Especially with all those Waynes LOL Think I will put both mine in anyway. Someone was asking about printing family tree. I did mine yesterday, It was printed over 10 pages and all manes are in boxes. Can't remember how I did it though Will go in and take another look. I still need to fasten it all together, then I will put it on the wall so I can use it for quick reference. btw I did make it a bit smaller also. I am very bust at the moment trying to sort out a puta for Neville. because he wants it to connect a midi keyboard and reproduce sounds of the theatre organ it needs to be fast and have a special sound card. Its all a bit beyond me and more so for Neville, but I am on a mission and will be picking a few brains. So far I have quotes from $1400.00 to $5,000.00. for virtually the same thing. It is a nice sunny day here today but a bit of a nip in the air. Trifley, the dog is fime, its that cat Sophie who is not well. She is getting a bit better every day and she has walked outside a bit today. It's very sad to watch her, she is arching her back as she walks and she has no spring in her step, so she is unable to jump up. Also, we have had to put a litter tray down and she has difficulty assuming the position. I bought her prawns yesterday, so she is eating a bit better today. I am about to ring the vet to see if I can continue with the medicine a bit longer. Sorry you are having family problems Sue, is it what we were discussing the other day? Not long now Mary, I do hope that John is feeling better soon. Once you are settled in the new place and there is no stress he may be better. Moving can be a very stressful thing, thats why we have decided to put it on hold for a while. Did anyone discover who Fitz really is? Sounds familiar to me. Hope everyone is feeling fit and well today, only got a week to get on form for the Sydney meet. Wish I was coming. Well, must go and get on the phone. Catch up later Luv SuzyQ btw. I can't thing of an embarrassing moment yet, but will let you know when I do. There are forced to be some.

No point beating around the bush, Jill, lol. Straight between the eyes! SuzyQ, I think Rebs has worked out who it is. Someone who's been on before, but come back with a different identity. Still cold here and it has started to sprinkle. I've just heard Antiques Roadshow start, so I'll pop back later. Lew Lew xxx

Howard you know Lew (How'do'ya) Has Rebs been in touch with you? Jood
