Hi Wattlers, Had a couple of busy days but hopefully back to normal now. Lets see what I can remember. Donna, sorry to hear about the op but I am sure you will feel much better afterwards. You will have to do what a friend of ours did after he got a very large vet bill, just before Christmas. He allowed everyone to pat the dog for their pressie. Maybe not pat your shoulder, but just being in your presence should be enough for them. Tony, hope your daughter delivers quickly, for both your sakes, and that all is well. Are we having a boy or a girl? Merle, I think a group counselling session would be good, that way we all get to have some time together. Maybe we could arrange it for July on Hamilton Island. Hope you are back in fighting form soon. Lew, I hope that you have a good trip. Perhaps you could sue pmsl. Will you be taking Lily now? I also hope that the fires keep away from your home and all your grapes and olives etc. Joan the new visitor was asking me about you ( I wrote to her ) and she tells me that she has a penpal who has a shop in Mudgee. I informed her that as you are a princess you know all your subjects. I also warned her off the purple pills. Laurie, so you managed to get a free night away, good for you. At least you would survive the heat in the Hilton. Its lovely today, never got above 24 yet. The bad part is that we still haven't had any rain. Joan going backwards to christmas. I remember Spike Milligan very well, lived not far from us. I thinkthe I'm walking backwards to Christmas may have been from the Goon Show. Hope Mr Darcy is well. Sorry, but I have forgotten every thing else, so I wish you all well in wealth, health and happiness. Just going for a drink, bye for now Luv SuzyQ just remember I haven't put in my Chrismas name, sorry

Laurie, I'm sure Lew will be thrilled that you thought of her and Tezza as you stayed at the Hilton!! :) Merle, I thought that Wattle meetings were group therapy! hee hee. I agree with Mary - I love your posts. I remember when we first got going and I would read a post and be on the floor laughing and would share it with John and he'd just look puzzled! LOL GUESS WHAT????? I bought a dress!! (actually I bought TWO) and I only paid half price for one ($100 down to $52) and the other was reduced $10 to $29! I have a slinky black number for the cocktail party and a nice demure print for the engagement and wedding (different couples) At least the print will be demure when I get a camisole or bit of lace to take the plunge off the neckline!!! two dresses for $80. Aren't I clever - only took 5 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vonny

Ok....the washing is dry, in and folded.......it can now rain. C'mon clouds give up that water! I'm waiting! Waiting.....waiting....waiting! Butter...nothing yet. Donna..which hospital are you going into and will it be day surgery? Healing, gentle hugz for you. SuzyQ...how's the hands? Do you know about your surgery dates yet? Tony....anything yet? I've heard s*x is good to encourage labour or is that just an old husbands tale? pmsl. Better think about something for dinner. See ya all later. Hugz to everyone Trifley X

Sounds like a few of the Wattlers are playing the waiting game Tony waiting for a baby Trifley waiting for rain & Laurie waiting for a plane (last night) Merle you are soooo funny, I look forward to your posts. .. Looooove your new name for Chrissie .. Miss-l-toe Brrrrr its turned cold here, but I believe its going to be hot hot hot tomorrow. Yes, it was me who had car problems. ..

Merls Go into your account details 3rd item down in the green after your name, when into the details section just change to what you want.Put some of what you want in christian name line and the rest in surname line. I put Merry as my christian name and Christmas as my surname. Have a go and practice on here..delete your post if it is not what you want and try again.. Glad things went so well today.. big hugs as it must have been a bit stressful.. Love Mary xxx

You are doing very well Mary Christmas ! lol It got a bit cool earlier. We had a Body Corp meeting at my place - last year same day it was soooo hot. At the moment it is comfortable bordering on cold. 26.3 inside. .. I hope its not 40 as predicted, tomorrow Jood

Rudee I hope things happen tonight poor mum she will be tired out. Star HRH your water feature is lovely now hubbie and son have to get to now and dig the hole for it when they recover from the lights effort tjat is LOL thats the way keep 'em busy is my motto too glad to hear new chemical is not too harsh nearly there now. Merle your OH is right stay away from those pills I think they have some sort of bad affect and you go weird there is some real weirdos around here as no doubt you've noticed but as I said we just go along with them don't upset them ok it could be dangerous so tell Hubby be afraid really afraid ok pmsl Donna do hope you are getting better too Sandra thanks for the emails Just got an email from Mikes nephew with new babie's photo dear little boy Lucas Michael and Mike is thrilled as this is his no 1 fav nephews boy and will be Geelong supporter as Tim the dad is he went against his father Brian and his three brothers who are mad Essendon supporters to barrack for his uncle Mike's team so consequently no 1 nephew Well I will be off now love Lara

Evening All I was going to leave it til tomorrow to post and show off my Chrissy name, but I couldnt wait. I was standing in my lounge looking out at all the city lights thinking tomorrow night our house will be all lit up, cant wait. I love Chrissy. I have been a bit busy lately doing hospital runs as we had 2 friends in hospital for a while but they are both home now. The fire I mentioned on here the other day is still burning, but within containment lines, it was about 30 minutes drive from here and as we live in a valley it just drifted up the river to the city, it has came out that it was deliberately lit, and 4 firies were injured yesterday, rotten b*****s I know what they need if they catch them. Im still waiting, waiting waiting too ........................ for pics of our HRH's lovely castle all lit up with the chrissy lights ??? ~~~~~ to All ~~~~~ (((((hugs)))))) to Trifley, Suzi, Donna and anyone else not 100% Cheers Sue

Ah Mary . . . The stitching has nearly given way on this old chaff bag !!! Well done Merle . . . first go and all . . . you passed another step in the trail to Wattlers insanity luv Laurie

Evening all So much waffle to catch up on! Glad you arrived home eventually Printheth Lolly - I'm sure you would rather have been at home withTLR than living it up on Qantas bank account. Like your Chrissy name Tassy - well done. Are you going to send us a pickle of your lights too? Good luck for the big 'lights up' tomorrow night. Merle - you did very well with your Chrissy name too - a very quick learner I see. Glad today went OK. Donna - you have so much happening over the next few weeks. It will be so good to have that shoulder fixed - and then the excitement of the visit from Carley. Is your OH home yet? Lew Lew -did you survive the drive to Adelaide? You must have needed lots of pretty multicoloured pills to soothe your nerves on the way. We had our walking group break up today - drove out to Shane Webke's pub at Leyburn. If you are a QLd league fan you'll know who I mean. Had a nice lunch but unfortunately the man himself was not there pulling beers! Katherine's last day of school for the year today. Now she has to wait for her report! From the results she has back so far, she seems to be doing very nicely. She has her best friend staying tonight so they ar enjoying the freedom of not having to study and are just veging out watching movies etc. Rudee - sending best wishes for the arrival of the new little miracle. Hope it doesn't take too long. Going to watch RPA - have a good night all Luv Anna

Hi all Tony...any sign of the new bub yet? L'oz....has Crew taken her lap top with her? The young prince is home from work but not in a good mood.......I don't think the season of 'Good will to all men' extends to some daft customers! I don't think I'll broach the subject of the castle pickles tonight.......might get something thrown at me heee heee. Maybe tomorrow night. Bed time for me. Sleep well dear friends. Hugz Trifley X
