Hi all, I'm off to bed soon too. Hope everyone who is sick or hurting - gets better soon. Sorry to hear about your Unc, Mary, glad you saw him when you were in NZ. You know that Raggy Bear who used to come on here, havent heard from here since she got back from WA - wonder why?? At least its a nice cool night tonight - every day is a surprise these days. Sleep well all Jood

Mini party at my house tonight.................. remember when I was young the night had just begun and we were hapeeeeeee..... a good girlfriend has just moved in close to us and I invited her for an impromptu bbq... OH has the Chet Atkins /Mark Knopfler DVD on but I have snuck away to clear up before he moves on to the Everley Brothers and the Beach Boys. Our respective DD's are away at an end of exam/year party - my DD15 has spent a WEEK making a party game for these kids - lots of cardboard? truth or dare/trivial pursuit/pictionary type things (who did the most writing - good on ya' mum) Very happy to report that end of yr exams were all passed.... we move on to year 10. I got to Xmas play rehearsals today and they will be fine as long as I can locate an old-fashioned full petticoat to protect our modesty on stage........ Somehow I am a bit perturbed about how INTEWESINGLY FUNNY Laurie’s shopping expedition was today - does anyone know ???WHERE she was shopping…. And Why…………………………… Anna – so great you got together with yr old buddies, my mum was a nurse and she made strong friendships, the bonds of shared experiences are strong. Tony sorry about yr tomato’s – mine are LOADED (5 plants only) – but you’ll catch up eventually. I’m thinking to do a second lot in early Dec this year as OH has built a bit of a greenhouse affair as our yard was revamped after the storm last year. We are hand watering now, but heavily mulched and protected……… it’s such a art but I like having even a tiny bit of home produce. OK it seems the singing is finally over and I can let the cat in ( she’s very shy) Plus I have to be at shop at 7………………… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hz

seems I might have missed you all. Just had a message to say we get to meet our son's birth mother Sunday afternoon. (tomorrow} and i'm a bit of a nervous wreck so darling Lew Lew a hefty dose of pills please ands if any of you are that way inclined, a prayer or two for wisdom to know the right things to say would be appreciated. Blimey, how am I supposed to sleep tonight.I'll let you all know how things go. LUV Me

Sorry I missed you',puss. Wondered if one of my hexes actually worked. Mary , you've obviously had some bad news. My love to you. Goodnight Tony. 'I'll see you in my dreams''! By the Way , HZinAlb are you from over my way by any chance or from that other Albany

Evening folks. A bewdiful stary night in Melbin. Have been out for tea tonight ( Italian restaurant ) with some old primary school mates and their wifes from me old stamping grounds in Richmond in Melbin. Have known these 4 blokes since i was 11 years old, and now in our late 50s early 60s we all still get on together like a house on fire, even though we only see each other once a year now. We catch up every year for Xmas drinks at a given resturant and reminiss about our teenage years, and how the world was our oyster back then, and the things we did...lol ( lucky to be still alive....lol ) The four of us took off at the ripe old age of 13 -14 and worked together in the Gippsland area of Victoria on farms, and then eventually worked our way up through the centre of this big country in S.A on farm stations, mending fences, and the likes..........Places like Port Augusta, Maree, Innamincka, Beltana, Leigh creek, Coober Pedy and the N.T.....Victory Downs,Kulgera, Alice Springs, Ross River and working at what ever we could find to earn a quid. Then back down again to the Barossa Valley in S.A picking grapes for the wineries until we were 18-20 years of age, before heading back home to Melb. After the restuarant they all came back to our place and we lit the Barbie up, and chucked a few snags and onion's on, the opened a nice bottle of Muscat and got stuck into it again. Gawd.......... i wish was a teenager again...........lol.........coz back then i couldnt give a rasberry tart ( fart ).....who was running the country....nor did i care....and most days i couldnt'a tell ya what day it was, let alone what year it was......lol Me mates reminded me about the time we were out near Oxley, some bloody where?.. lost in the bush. Anyway it was in N.S.W somewhere...... and we were hungry. So we caught a rabbit, and it was time to cook it. So we skinned and gutted him, and i stuck a long branch up its kyber and hung him over the fire between two 'Y' shaped sticks ( Boy scout style ,as ya do ).... anyhow, the fire was going out ( cant remember why? )..... probably stoned outa me mind....lol Soooooo..i goes to the car bonnet and syphons a cup full of petrol outa the carby...hee hee .......and goes back to me rabbit and chucks the cup full of petrol on the fire ( to give it some Oooomfff.....but musta got some on the rabbit and blew him ta bits ( KAAABOOM )...............Well he was charcoaled a bit, but we was hungry, and any port in a storm.....lol Boy they were great days.Bought back a lot of good memories. Sorry for the long story, but i still reckon your mates are for life,( Male or Female ) and you dont have to live on each others door step to prove it. Hope everyone had a great day & night. Tony Oz...:>)))
