Evening Wattlers, TLR went off to a trade do tonight . . . brung me home the strangest pressie . . . . a 4ltr paint can full of Jelly Beans . . PMSL . . . I only like the black ones! Hiya Yvette . . . Ponders sounds familiar, born and bred in Cobar meself . . . send me an email with your links out there. See if I know any of them. Heather honey, if your Dad adores Gracie Fields then take it from me . . . he knows some very funny songs!!. If you want a really good laugh, then get one of her cd's . . Gracie Fields - Northern Sweetheart . . . has lots of the funny ones on it !!! I got most of them for Dad by ordering them in through any good music store. Dad loved to have music around him, last thing he would do when he went to bed at night was stack up his cd's and have them playing softly as he went to sleep. (teehee only time the volume was turned down on his player). Sleep well Wattlers . . . sweet dreams luv Laurie

Evening Wattlers. Dont know if i ever posted this link....quite a goodie for Oz and O/seas.,,,,but you may already have it in your favourites? http://www.ozgenonline(.)com/ 11 bells and all is well.....:>))) Some things in life are bad, They can really make you mad, Other things just make you swear and curse, When you're chewing life's gristle, Don't grumble, Give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistle] Always look on the light side of life. [whistle] If life seems jolly rotten, There's something you've forgotten, And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, Don't be silly chumps. Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistle] Always look on the right side of life, [whistle] For life is quite absurd And death's the final word. You must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin. Give the audience a grin. Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow. So,... Always look on the bright side of death, [whistle] Just before you draw your terminal breath. [whistle] Life's a piece of shhhhhhhhiza.....:>)) When you look at it. Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true. You'll see it's all a show. Keep 'em laughing as you go. Just remember that the last laugh is on you. And... Always look on the bright side of life. Always look on the right side of life. [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Always look on the bright side of life! [whistle] Jood.....I'm always smilin mate, cos us males wont be around much longer......:>(((((((.....lololol In the biological battle between the sexes, the Y chromosome has suffered defeat after defeat. The male-determining chromosome has seen its gene supply shrink from more than 1,000 genes when sex chromosomes first evolved, to what scientists once thought was only a handful of genes, a downward trend predicted to continue until the Y disappeared altogether. One by one, Y-chromosomes will disappear, eliminated by the relentless onslaught of irreparable mutation, until only one is left. When that chromosome finally succumbs, men will become extinct. Av a good un. Tony Oz.......:>)))

I was going to say Good Evening to all the Wattlers, but looking at the time I noticed it's now 12.45,so good morning everyone. As per usual I manage to get on here when everyone else is off to bed!! Have just been out to see 'The Devil wears Prada' and Sunday I saw 'Little Miss Sunshine', both good for a laugh. Mel - it was great to see you are alive and kicking, we just thought perhaps you had locked yourself in the laundry with more chocolate goodies! Jood - I've sent you some photos I took of Trifley and her support team up in Qld,finally managed to work out how to get them sorted!! Well I am frozen sat here in computer room,so will off to the lounge where heater is blasting away. Enjoy your Wednesday all, catch you later. Lyn

Will forward on as requested (many thanks) Shaz - what's this - going out AGAIN??????????? .. pmsl - and me staying home today. I told you's all I was too embarrassed to get the firies back to change my smoke alarm batteries :( .. I got my 6'3' son in law to do it last night (he'd just come back from Adelaide). You decided if you are awake yet Fanny? I was like that before - just one eye open. .. My computer was sooo slow this morning, and I was getting soooo mad, but ran disk clean up - crap cleaner, Regcure, Ad aware and Spy bot and now it's behaving itself. .. I guess my computer feels like I do when I wake up - doesnt wanna move .. lol Another cold morning here in the mountains but the sun is shining outside and a lovely day awaits.

Good morning Folks, a magnificent day on Botany Bay! All sun drenched and shiny! There are four giraffe with necks stretched to the heavens, and poor old rake man on his tractor has had his work cut out for him this morning. Sometime during the night some not so civic minded person/s have broken the wheelie bins out of their little enclosures and taken them down onto the sand and dumped them into the waters edge. All clean now, but . . . . . .!!!! My Dixie Chickers haven't returned from their night out yet . . . Naomi's flight back to Dubbo isn't untill about 3pm, but I'm guessing when she does get back she will be looking for the pillow. Devil wears Prada was well done wasn't it Lyn - Meryl played her role sooo well! Is it really only 11 days till the return of OH ? . . . boy that time has flown by! Jood & Gwenda . . . pickles for me please !!!! See you have done your cleaning duties for the day Jood, LOL. . . now you can take it easy for the rest of the day! Behave today Shaz . . . remember your with the 'ladies' . . .hope you have a great day. Yvette, you sound like you have a hard time getting started some mornings - know the feeling. Some mornings I pretend I dont hear the alarm, but TLR doesn't fall for it - to make matters worse he is always bright and cheery in the mornings. Did everyone get the message from LOST COUSINS ??? They have extended the freebie untill next Monday 16th !! 'Mucksucker' is standing there waiting for some power so he can eat all the scraps off the floor so best go feed him - will probably be the only h/wk that gets done here today. Have a great day, only 4 sleeps till the Wattlers are 1 year young luv Laurie

Morning all :) Cool but sunshiny bright here. Going over to D's again to help. She went to the Drs yesterday and she has an infection - stiches - as well as the gastric, poor thing. Her hubby still can't keep anything in his tum so is going to take an extra week off work. Was his birthday yesterday so I took him some gastrolyte!!! The district nurse is coming today so that is good and I think they are going to take Mia to the Dr for a check up as she keeps saying 'ow' and they are not sure if she is hurting or just a new word!! She seems to be recovering from the gastric but is not eating. New bubby is just being an angel, dear little girl. Hasn't the time gone quick Hz??? bet your daughter will have lots to tell :) Mind you - you will probably have to listen in to phone conversations to find out all of it!! Gwenda - I'll pass on the photos if you don't mind as I am also close to using up my allowance. Maybe we could organise a coffee so I can see them sometime??? LARA (sorry for shouting need to get her attention) Am I in your email address book TWICE?? because I get duplicates of everything! Could you check please :) thank you. ~~~~~~~~ and see you this evening. Thanks for the songs Tony and Laurie. :) Vonny

Hello again Poor Vonny, your family are having a tough time, hope they all get better soon. Lyn has sent me pickles of her mini meet with Trifley recently - I will send them to Laurie, Anna, Gwenda, Jill, Lew, Tony & Yvette (can you all confirm that you are able to cope with pickles before I send them - Laurie I know you are ok) Anyone else who wants them, let me know. The pickles total 381kb, which is not all that big. Jood
