Ohh Jood thats lovely I'm so thrilled for you , so he is a changed man eh just matured probably isn't that great so I would think you will be seeing more of him by the way I didn't get the photo of Lucas with the new toofies either was upset about that cause have special file for wattlers children grandies neices and nephews etc . If you don't mind can Nefer do the spanking please PMSL huh how was I to know what the rd. was like I knew it was a highway but didnt want to make Mike take the van up there if its like the Putty rd we came over when we first started caravanning from Singleton we thought for sure we were going to die up there bend after bend and me on the fally down side is not good we only had dads old van then too it was 16ft long so bit of a diffence as this one is 25ft long and not so light with me and all my stuff in it of course no weight in the golf clubs lol ''' Lew thanks Mate that's good we can take the van over then if we want too as she will have beds and we are not bringing you know who cant say his mame he might hear me hes paranoid over being left but Josh will be here so he will look after him for us just for a week as Mike's wants to also go the war museum in Canberra before coming to Mudgee or after don't know which yet and go and see Sue my sister so will a nice little break Off again to do some more of the dreaded H/Work Just heard from Cassie and the wedding was very nice a bit of a long day but it all went well and the bride and her mum were ok so that's good and her and Jason and Sampson will be here tomorrow afternoon best go and vac spare broom right now keep doing other stuff very easily distracted me bye Love Lara

Anna Tassy would be literally glued to the television I can bet you she said she was going to do that at about 11am so there she'll be and she will not be a moving till its all well and truly over, lol glad you were able to resist the temptations in all the arty farty shops but I know whatyou mean re Freedom evertime I go in there I feel like coming home and selling all my furniture and getting all new stuff then I get ikey and think no it does the job and I won't spend the money . so we will have what we have till I win the big one lol cu later got to go and do that room hehe love Lara

Jood, what a lovely surprise. So happy he has made your day. Flucky

Doing a bit of a chuckle here mate - Lara - we used to go 4WDing on the Putty Road - no wonder you were worried - no comparison with the highway at all!!!!! Yes, I was thrilled about seeing my son Lara, he looks better, in fact, not a bad looker even if I say so myself. .. Pity I didnt take a pic of him today. Will send Lucas's pic to you - I do miss the little fellow - he's been away only 11 days - not that I saw him every day, but at this part of their growing up they are developing daily. .. He will probably be sitting up when he gets home in a few days. .. I was a very nervous new mother, and it does reflect in the child .. Jann being an older mother, and a school teacher to boot - is very relaxed and confident with Lucas, and it shows in his behavour, just one happy little soul. Gee I have been raving on about my family today .. pmsl. How's your colouring in going Tony? Jood

You're allowed to rave about your family, Jood. You must be very proud of them.

A tired, but happy Queen Trifley drags herself onto thread. Hi everyone...I had a lovely time at IKEA. Only bought a bath mat and some scrub brushes but really enjoyed looking at every thing. It was much better going with Jade. She liked looking and touching and opening and closing things.....just like me. The boys just stand there and say...'Are we finished yet?' I must have walked miles.....well at least one mile pmsl...so I think I might get a good nights sleep tonight. Joodles...how wonderful that you got to catch up with your son. I'm not surprised it has made you happy. Tony....not fair.....I want a grandchild...(Trifley stamps foot) Have fun and lots of cuddles. Hey Yvette....any rain with that southerly change? I think it's coffee time.... Big hugz to everyone else. Trifley X

Why stomp your foot, O' Queen Trifles. You should just demand that you have a grandchild!!! Not only do I love Ikea, but I also love Freedom Furniture. Just had a swim. A bit colder today because of the wind, but still very nice :-)

Safety car out again . . . . the thrill of it all . . . Devily is on the edge of her seat . . . Teeeheeee Joodles I am so pleased for you . . fingers crossed for a repeat performance next week (least you can pop in the car and go meet him some place) XO Glad you had a good day out with Jade Oh Great Trifley. I need a coffee too . . . luv Laurie

There is a lot of noise coming from Tasmania . . . teeeheee luv Laurie

Geez Tassie I could hear you yelling from here. Calm yourself woman . Congratulations to Craig Lowndes - very fitting that he won the inaugural Peter Brock trophy. Hip hip hooray! :>))

I swore I wouldnt watch - didnt know one car from another let alone one driver from another! .. Only watched the last few minutes and it was exciting tho I wasn't barracking for anyone. .. I shed a tear together with Lowndes, it was very emotional! .. Guess whose got a FORD car. Incidentally the plane that went down out of Bathurst, my son took a picture of the countryside, and you could see the smoke from the plane, they say you can see it at night time. .. I dont know if they have reached the plane yet. .. They had to cut a road through the bush. I know what you mean Trifley - men don't have the same feeling for IKEA as we wimmen do .. lol Jood

Bring out ya dead, bring out ya dead!!!! are you giving them away jood? or transcribing a cemetery? No rain with the change, just cold wind. i didn't watch the races but i think it kept the rev heads inside. awww (no offence intended) love yvette x

Well yes I have calmed down a bit now but still smiling. Yes I drive a Ford and my OH who isnt a happy chappy actually has to also drive a Ford. It was a great race with a very nail biting finish. Off to do tea now. Yipee Ford won Bathurst, Ford won Bathurst :-))))))))))))) Cheers Sue

Hi Wattlers, Its great to have my pc up and running again it has been out of action, we think we coped a virus or something and was hard to get everything right again. Also had a busy few days with this and that, had grandkids visit and other visitors. Too much to catch up on, hope all the unwell peeps are feeling better. It was very hot first thing then about 11am the southerly came through and it's been blowing ever since, very uncomfortable. Tony talking about census returns, I once had one that said son of latter, couldent fathom that out because at the time I dident know the man had been married before and the son was of the first wife. well time to catch up on emails ect so will catch up tomorow. Cheers Sandra in the Gong.

Nah Fanny, they were on a list I subscribe to - and rather that trash them, I thought I'd see if you peeps were interested. I thought you were going for Holden Tassy - or was that someone else? Jood
