Just wanted to add how very sad I am about Steve Irwin's death. I was not into his personal style but I think he was so passionate and had such vision for the future of the wildlife on our planet. I've been to his Australia zoo and it was such a credit to him - all the animals were so well looked after. He obviously loved his family and my heart goes out to his wife and little Bindi and Tom. I hope his dreams for the future of our wildlife will live on. Hope you went OK today Trifley. You haven't been on to talk to us you naughty girl. Best wishes to Cilla and Mary - take care and hope you are feeling better soon. Gwenda - have a great trip. For goodness sake make sure that Wattie is not carrying any questionable hand luggage. Hi Jood - hope you are travellling well! Have fun tomorrow girls - SuzyQ - hope you are getting on top of your sciatica. Love Anna

I was shocked to hear of the sad death of Steve Irwin. A passionate Australian and a hell of a nice bloke. He will be sadly missed. My sincere sympathy to his wife and children. The heart test seemed to go well today. That is, of course, after the technician found a vein to take the blood. My veins were not co-operating today. I'll have to wait untill tomorrow afternoon for the results so when we get back from Canungra I'll ring to find out. Laurie...we'll see you at Canungra Rissole at 11:30am. Crew...I think your idea about the Loto is good. It will spread out our chances for a win. Then we all might be able to go to the pole with you and your gay mate. Mary...fingers XXX'd that John's MRI results give the Docs something to work with. Donna...sorry Zack's team didn't win but it sounds as though they played well. <<<clap>>> big hoorah for them. Big ~~~~~wave and hugs to all the other Wattlers. I'm off to get some beauty sleep so I'm bright eyed and bushy tailed for tomorrow. Night everyone. love Trifley X

Good morning Wattlers - have a good day. Pleased to hear the tests went OK Trifley. Catch you all later Anna

Morning all another beautiful Q'Land day sun shining early,birds singing but still not much water in our new water tank. Will ring as soon as the Dr's surgery opens to get my blood test results & then I have to wait for CT scan tomorrow. Talk to you all later Luv Cilla

Morning Wattlers, Mary & Cilla - hope you're both feeling better - nothing worse than being blah is there Lew - Wattie spent the night with all the bears - at least they didn't disturb my sleep with all their chatter - Wattie kept them entertained with all his travel tales - goodness knows what he said about Brisvegas & Sydvegas - pmsl Lew - I thought John's wife's name read Jemima - who knows it was too b****y small for me to read and not even sure if he is my relly but he came from the right place in Devon - only cost me $10 to get so took a chance. Cuz doing the book isn't sure either but the daughter's names all fit. Off to have shower and brekky before doing some chores then heading off to meet daughter Have a great day ~~~~~~waves~~~~~~ Gwenda PS - any thoughts on the new layout on the front page - for those who don't come in thru the front?

Morning all, Pam, sorry you couldn't get the origins site to work - they have been having difficulties again. But it is working at the moment although is no use to me as can't find a thing!!! Gwenda, I think the new Genes layout is really good BUT very sneaky offering all those goodies then finding you have to pay for credits!!! it might backfire on them if people get antsy. ~~~~~~~~~to all, I'll be back later :) Vonny

Greetings Wattlers. Sunny today, but a nasty chilly breeze. Nothing exciting to report. Good news that Jilly McMad is back home after her little op. She was thrilled to hear from you Trifles! Off to Dubbo on Thursday for a little retail therapy and also to buy some more cooking utensils for the Mudgee Meet. NO ONE is to worry about food, I will just be serving simple finger food and, if worse comes to worse and my cooking is disgusting, we can always have pizza delivered, lol. Jood is staying with me and has volunteered to be kitchen hand, so we'll be right. Donna, I think Zack has done extremely well and it's good that they're now thinking about next years games. How's Dan going at that new school? Must away and get some breakfast. Lew Lew xxx

Sorry Zach's team didn't win this time Donna great coach to celebrate just getting into the final which is a great achievement and as some one else said good attitude Zach to still keep trying right up to the end.Way to Go BOY.

Will shoot of now couldn't access origins B****r so got huffy and going to do some more research love Lara

Good Morning Wattlers We have a cool but fine day today so far, it is supposed to rain but havent got any yet. We have organised most of the thing in readiness for moving next weekend 15th -17th, although the landlord will have the keys on Monday 11th we will movin in over the weekend, David is taking the Friday off work so it will give us 3 days for moving furniture and sorting stuff out which is plenty of time. There is only one hiccup and that is when we rang to organise our internet to be put on in the new house on 15th, they said that they have to cut off our broadband tomorrow 6th, something to do with having the time to organise the account or something, they told David and I really wasnt listening to the reason, I was just thinking WHAT!!!!! over a week without my friends :-((((((( then David told me that we can still connect to the internet through dial up on the account at this place while we are here, so that made me a bit happier, then the lip dropped again, David is having trouble getting the puta to connect to internet through the dial up modem GRRRRRR, So If I am missing you know why, I cant get on here boo hoo, He is going to have another go tonight and also ring Dodo to talk to them about the prob. Anyway fingers crossed and I will still be popping in today, to see whats happening. Anna did you get a number last night???? It went by quietly by the look of it. Trifley good news on your heart tests. Mary hope John's mir test come back ok. Tony hows the bedroom going? If Im not on here on the weekend, good luck for the finals. Hope the lunch goes well in Canungra RSL, Im sure it will. Pickies please. ~~~~~~~~ to everyone. Cheers Sue
