Nighty nite, sleep tight Don't let the bed bugs bite Pam

Good morning from a lovely sun drenched Botany Bay The water is looking like a giant mirror, Rake Boy is out on his tractor makeing the beach all clean, cleaning away the debris from the tide and the footsteps. and 7 giraffe are haveing a holiday in the sky. Earlier morning in our household this morning, as TLR had a trade morning up in Manly to show his face at before he headed for the office in the other direction. I'm going to spend some time this morning, searching the Danish Archives - while my mind is fresh - its a struggle with the dictionary in one hand and mouse in the other. Have a great day all . . . Its Thursday 21st September, 2006 !!! The only one ever !!! luv Laurie

Morning Wattlers from a fantastically sunny Mudgee. One of Terry's mates from school!! is arriving today, so we're in for a busy time. It's the middle of the Wine Festival here, so there's lots to see and do. On Saturday night we are going to an event called Go Grazing. 10 local wineries and caterers pair up to present matched wines and canapes. Should be interesting. Hope everyone is fit and happy. I'm off to have some brekky. Lew Lew xxx

Morning all.. Laurie You are right it is a lovely day today. I did not forget your request for help with the Danish peeps but I havent had any reply.. I am wandering if their english is as good as I thought and they could not understand what we were after..It was the friends sister who does genealogy so perhaps she is not doing it any more , so we are in the dark,, sorry..I really thought we were on to someone who could help..I might email her again and see if she has had any more luck with her sister..no harm in asking.. Must go and try to acess my emails as I havent been able to it yet,, Kept getting the error message..??? Back later Love Mary xxxx

Lew That sounds like a lovely day.. Are you doing the driving...lol or the friend.. Love Maryxxx

Mmmm, me thinks that a taxi may be called for, lol

good morning Wattlers, yes what a great day but a bit windy in the Gong, have been out gardening already,it's now 10.15am. tassie Sue, hope your daughter is feeling better, sounds like an hormonal migraine at that age, I had my first one when 14 and then not another till I was in my forties. Tony welcome back to the fold lol and with a new hard drive, the mind boggles. Mary, glad the barbie was good, you sound so happy there, good for you. Was watching Sunrise this morning and 2 ladies were on, one of them was talking about what she has done since she was 58, canoeing,treked round Aus, done abseiling, and this year on her 62nd birthday walked the Kakoda trail plus lots more, well i don't know about absailing??? I rather fancy hot air ballooning but don't know if I would have the courage to do it. Trifley How are you feeling today? well I hope. Hope everyone else is having a great day what ever you are doing. see you later cheers sandra in the Gong

Morning Wafflers another windy day in Melb - hayfever giving me the pip big time! Donna - hooray the scan was clear! Not too many of Dr Lew's purple pills now - there may be side effects. Tassie glad Tamika is feeling better - its always worry with kids and headaches. Like most mothers think the worst/hope for the best. Trifley hope you are feeling better today - you must be as you got to see the Doc last night -lol Lew your winery crawl sounds like grape grazing weekend in the Yarra Valley - definitely calls for a DD (designated driver) or taxi! Hic Melbourne Show starts today and I have been dropping lots of hints I would like to go and see the cats but just found out the tickets are $22 each for adults - $44 to look at cats and put up with the crowds/kids and noise - I changed my mind. lol. Sandra go for the balloon ride - its amazing - did one over the Yarra Valley a couple of years ago - would do it every week if I could afford it. What will I do now? oh yes some work - wondered why I was here. TTFN jude

Hello Wattlers, real spring weather in Melb, complete with wind. JudeDIY Im with you on the show...too expensive and way too many peeps for me. I was so glad when I the kids were old enough to go on their own. Although I loved spending hours with the animals. Glad all the sickies seem to be improving. Lots of vitD(sunshine) and lots of liquids makes a big difference. By liquids I didnt necessarily mean grape juice Lew...lol Have a good day everyone, back to work Flakey

Happy Lunch time all :) Was off early this morning as on duty at the School breakfast Club then on to take Grand D shopping. First time I have taken her shopping :) Just to try to give her mummy a rest. Will take her out again tomorrow afternoon too. So I just finished my breakfast :) Got to tidy up the table as have Son and DIL over tonight for dinner (instead of last night). They will get reheated meat with baked vegeys!! ~~~~~~~~~~~ back later Vonny

Afternoon Wattlers, Jude DIY & Joan, your Tourist Guides are in the post. A little giggle for the afternoon: 'A man approached a very beautiful womanin the large supermarket and siad, 'I've lost my wife here in the supermarket. Can you talke to me for a couple of minutes?' The woman looked puzzled. 'Why talk to me?' she asked. 'Because every time I talk to a woman with tits like yours, my wife appears out of nowhere.' Boom, boom. Heeeeee, Lew Lew xxx

Quick message from Trifley for all Wattlers: 'Gotta go....shopping awaits Can you let the Wafflers know I'm having a good day today? Feel absolutely normal and full of zipper...de...do...dah' :) Vonny

~~~~~~~~~~To Everyone~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just zooming through from work ( eeewwww Full time this week) and just about to walk back out the door. I hope you are all well and I do hope to have a spare few minutes to catch up with everyones news later tonight.... Cya Mel

Afternoon Wattlers We had heaps of rain, hail and wind last night, but woke to a cool but sunny day. Picked up the girls at airport and they was tired but glad to be home, just checked on youngest on and she is asleep on her bed, Tamika is in her room sorting out her stuff, her seems a bit better now than when I picked her up, but her friend is here and has had plenty of cuddles to make her better lol. Funny what love does hee hee. Hospital did take some blood and are doing test to make sure it was only a migrane and not anything else, they are going to forward the results to us. Hello to all, too many to mention. Cheers Sue

Lew and Jude I'll have you know I'm selective as to who I bite - and the postie is definitely NOT on my list! - (jude shudders) Never heard that song Laurie - an oldie but a goodie? Read a couple of months ago that a hug should last 7 seconds minimum for it to do the most good -- we spend a lot of time huggling! Tell everyone you know - that way lots of hugs get shared.lol Back soon - my customers await my presence jude 3
