Morning all you mad peeps... Beautiful morning at the moment we have the air/con men in installing a Daiken so I will have to forgo my aquarobics as John has to go to the physio.. bloody noisy with all the drilling.. This will have to be short as they want to turn off the power. so back later Love Mary xxxx

Good Morning Wattlers, well I'm still able to be here, haven't had a reply from Genes, Norton anti virus has done its job and everything crossed computer seems to be back to normal again. Norton classes 'errorsafe' as a virus not a pop up. It was taking betweeen 3 to5 mins to connect or open things up -but okay now. Would rather be on here too Jood I can't get the hang of the other place. Doesn't feel right. Hope you all have a very merry lunch. Thoughts are with the Queen today, love the new haircut don't know if I would be that brave queenie. But then I agree with Kylie - if you get up and feel like wearing diamonds for the day then go for it. (((((( hugs )))))) for you today - hope your feeling better tomorrow. Suppose no one is around today, have I scared you all away? love jude

Good Morning Wattlers Havent read back on posts, so I hope everyone is well. I have only been given a couple of minutes on here ( gee my oh is a slave driver at times) :-( We have a beautiful sunny day which is great for moving. We have puta set up in new house, but still only on dial up. Of course I made sure it was in the first trip so I could get back on here lol, my lovely David set it up for me and then said go ahead say hello to your 'Wattler' friends hee hee isnt he a darling :-) Done 2 trips yesterday, off to do another one this arvo, just boxes then tomorrow the remaining furniture, then all we have to do is clean up old place. Ooh must tell you all, I had a phone call from the local paper yesterday, just before we went to pick up truck. They are going to do a story on 'Fanatics' in the Sunday Magazine, next weekend, and the sports writer, pointed the reporter in my direction, as he had been out to my house to take a pic of girls and me for a story to do with the Mothers Day match in Launceston earlier in the year. He thought I would be a good person to be the 'Fanatic'!!!!!!!!! So then I informed her we are in the process of moving and my 'Hawk Wall' is in boxes. So hshe asked me if I could possibly have a bit set up and could she visit to do the story on Monday. Sooo better get my butt into gear and put up all my things again, good thing I made special note on the boxes 'Hawk Stuff' hee hee. Got to go and get back to work. ~~~~~~~ madly to all~~~~ Cheers Sue

Morning Wattlers, well Im in and nothing has popped up so I hope its safe. When I went to close down last night I had allsorts of probs. Well as I said in the other place Im off to wash windows and hang curtains as its such a beautiful day. Will pop in from time to time.....have a good day Flakey

I am here , well I'm at home for a bit + possum's not about. Replying instead of looking and running. Yvette x

Well grumpy me is sitting here back at the aptmnt . . . didn't make it to lunch with the girls! Got out in the car and the flat tyre I had pumped up on Wednesday was down AGAIN . . . off to the tyre shop . . . diagnosis . . . piece of metal - very close to the valvue, so new tyre please . . . by the time they got it on and I could get back on the road, it was a wee bit late - I felt grotty, hands and white shirt not looking the best so I came back here instead !! Hope your having a good time girls . . . mutter mutter mutter !!!! Ah well, must have been a reason . . . not my day to be out on the road. So . . . what will I do - I'm sure I can find some FH that needs doing teehee cheers luv Laurie

Poor Laurie Blooming bucket of pitch......... There's always family history to fall back on! ((((((mwah))))))) Anna

A very hungry and caffiene deprived Trifley wonders through thread on way to day surgery. TX

Awwwww Laurie, that's sad :( ~~~~~~~` to the others who will be talking 19 to the dozen no doubt. A FANATIC!!! :) You a fanatic Tassie? fancy that - I never would have thought it :) pmsl Hope you find all your bits! You had better point them in the direction of Trifley I reckon - now THAT hair is fanatical :) On my lunch break, anyone need pointers on Present Continuous tense??? Have a laugh for you. Although I had no pop-ups I thought I might as well manually empty the cookie folders last night cause I had never done it manually. So Tony sent me instructions and I managed quite well BUT in the process found 4 pictures of chocolate chip cookies!!!!!! AND I can't delete them cause source is unknown according to the computer. SO who sent me the Cookies?????? PMSL Going to look round, Vonny ~~~~~~~~~` and (((((hugs)))) to Trifley. may it all go really well :)

Hi all, what a mess that euro safe thingy was, Ron sorted my puta out for me but when I spoke to my son earlier it seems his puta crashed last night, and as he doesn't have norton he's not very happy with me as he thinks it has come from me via an e-mail, my sister got it too but she has norton so managed to get rid of it. Hugs to you Trifley, love the hair, it's brilliant! I'm on a bit of a high at the moment, my daughter arrives from the UK on Sunday with her boyfriend so only two more sleeps before I see her, I miss her so much it will be lovely when she comes home permantly. She coming home for a friends wedding which is on the 30th Sept. Luv Jillx

Afternoon Wattlers. Beautiful day in Mudgee. Might go and sit by the pool for a while and read. Still a bit too cold for dipping just yet, but the solar heating is now on, so it won't be long before we're in. Sorry you missed the mini meet, Laurie. I bet they're having a ball. (((hugs))) to our Trifles. God only knows what people think when they see that hair, lol. Jill, pleased to hear about your daughter visiting. When's she coming back permanently? How's the boat coming along, Vonny? For those in Lotto, on special instructions from Wattie, I have purchased 2 mega picks (30 games each) for tomorrow night's big one ($22M!!!). Tony will send the numbers to you as usual. By the way, has anyone heard from Gwenda & Wattie? Bet they're having a great time. Well, I'm off to get some vitamin D. Lew Lew xxx

Afternoon . . . just thought I would fill you afternoon with endless chatter. I have managed to do some file cleaning up this afternoon, so all is not wasted!! I am sure lunch would have been better . . . TLR is going to be happy to come home to a cleared desk though. How is our little convict Barb today . . . poor thing I bet she was trembling in her boots yesterday, good thing she had big tuff Tony tu old er and' !! Teehee bet she pays her tax bill on time from here on . . . !!! Mary I suppose you have the Daiken all installed now, just waiting for some hot weather to turn it on - is the physio still helping John ??? I agree with you DIY Jude, Trifley is a brave queen, but I think she should tell Graeme she needs a new wardrobe now to match the 'do' How is the 'fanatic' going ???? Ah Sue, your going to be famous !!! Remember what I said about taking time off between the shift and the clean up over at the old place . . . take some time out - and dont thingk about the other place for a couple of days if you can. Flakey, how are the curtains looking ??? The girls will think they are at the wrong house when they get home !!! I had a good deal with g/f Sue up home, I did all her sewing for her, and she did the family hair cuts for us. I think I got the better end of the stick, mind you whenever we get together there is always a bottle of vino involved, so you had to make sure you got the cut as soon as you arrived ! How's it going Oh great one . . . got the tap in situ OK ??? Maybe you could look at hooking it up straight to the Martooni glass ?????? Nah - then you would deprive yourself of the tingle of the taste buds! Chocolate chip cookies eh Vonny . . . have you been eating while you have been online then ??? Now lift up that keyboard and give it a shake . . . . Only 2 sleeps Jilly . . . and Christmas is only a little way off - she will be home for keeps before you know it. Enjoy your time with your daughter! Match it Miss Mudgee - dont want you frying to a crisp out there by the pool . . . let Tezza pretend he is a nubian slave and stand by you with a big brolley!! Go on let him !!! That is great that the new pills are helping you Donna . . . see . . . being nagged to go to the Dr had it's reward . . . you will be able to go off for your break feeling a lot more like enjoying yourself. I know what you mean about the shopping and only getting things for others, but it gets better when they grow up a bit. Now that i have 7 day weekends and there is just TLR and me . . . if I dont get what I want today, I can go back tomorrow !!! We plan on having a weekend getaway . . . we are going to head off down the south coast tomorrow and drive until we find a place we want to stay the night - then drive back again on Sunday. I know we have been away, but after the few days back that TLR has had - he needs to be got away from it all. He went back to work to a mess, the sales manager had not done as he had been asked, TLR had a go at him - so he resigned. Found out he hadn't been at the office all the time that Ray was away - no wonder he didn't have time to do his jobs. Will drop back later and see how the lunch went - not long now till Joodles will be home and letting us know I'm sure (though she probably went on to the Archives on her own anyway) Catch you all later luv Laurie

Arvo Wattlers...:>)) You have Lotto email. must go ...the fridge is callin.....:>))) Tony Oz...:>)))

Nope .. she didn't go to the archives, coz she didn't know the address (didn't think she'd need it) - but then it was 3pm when the party broke up (tho Mel had to scoot off earlier to pick up the kids) I was late - not by choice. .. Not sure if I've mentioned before that my bp has been up the past few months, probably since hospital in May. .. I have been trying to deny it - and when the Dr said I should take tabs, I stalled for a little while longer. .. He said at least get a bp monitor, which I did (and that was why I was late). .. I decided I was being a silly moo and that it could be dangerous if left ignored .. so I start a low dose tonight. .. and I have a brand new bp monitoring machine (courtesy my private health fund) I was the last one there today, Shaz all of a tizz wondering where I was. .. I was sooo sorry Laurie couldn't be with us. .. Mel is juuuuuuuuuuust lovely, as we knew she would be. .. Conversation flying in all directions, laughs here and there (funniest sight was when I tried to take a pickle of Shaz & Lyn and they insisted on holding each others double chins up for the pic. .. It was a scream .. not for publication tho .. lol We were all proper little piggies (apart from Mel) - and indulged in gi-normous desserts. .. The sun was glorious till about 2.30 when it clouded over and the temp dropped about 10 deg. ... crazy weather this. Jood

Glad you had a good time Joodles, let me know what day you have free next week and if you want I will come to the Archives with you. Pleased also that your getting on with treating that high BP !!!! (Thanks Judy, Tony & Lew/Wattie for the Lotto numbers - everything will be crossed. . . ) luv laurie
