Over in Killarney, Many years ago, My mother sang a song to me In tones so sweet and low. Just a simple little ditty, In her good old Irish way, And I'd give the world if she could sing That song to me this day. Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Hush, now don't you cry! Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, That's an Irish lullaby. Oft, in dreams I wander To that cot again, I feel her arms a huggin' me As when she held me then. And I hear her voice a humin' To me as in days of yore, When she used to rock me fast asleep Outside the cabin door. Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Hush, now don't you cry! Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, That's an Irish lullaby

Yes when I say have Raspberries and cream. I actually have Cream and raspberies as there is alway more cream, have ta drown the food in it :-))) Ok Im going back outside to sit on my fence and look at my lights with my guests and drink my Jim Beam See you all tomorrow

lol..Sue Do you have cream in your Jim Beam? I would...lol Barbs avin a Baileys, and I'm avin a Morris Muscat...:>)) In a neat little town they call Belfast Apprenticed in trade I was bound And many an hour of sweet happiness I spent in that neat little town Till bad misfortune befell me And caused me to stray from the land Far away from my friends and relations To follow the black velvet band Her eyes they shone like the diamond You'd think she was queen of the land And her hair hung over her shoulder Tied up in a black velvet band Well, I was out strolling one evening Not meaning to go very far When I met with a pretty young damsel She was selling her trade in a bar When I watched, she took from a customer And slipped it right into my hand Then the Watch came and put me in prison Bad luck to the black velvet band Next morning before judge and jury For our trial I had to appear The judge, he said, 'Young fellow The case against you is quite clear And seven years is your sentence You're going to Van Dieman's Land Far away from your friends and relations To follow the black velvet band' So come all you jolly young fellows I'd have you take warning by me And whenever you're out on the liquor Beware of the pretty colleen They'll fill your with whiskey and porter Until you're not able to stand And the very next thing that you know You're landed in Van Dieman's Land

No tony just coke Well OH is cracking the whip, have ta bring Santy in for the night and off to bed , spoil sport just when I was ready to settle for the night with a bottle lol. Catch all you good folk tomorrow. Cheers Sue

Morning Wattlers, Back on page 6 and its 7.13 am so wakey, wakey you lot of sleepy heads Hope everyone has a nice relaxing day and there are no sore heads after so much revelry yesterday. Thanks to Laurie & Sue for piccles. Had such a big lunch yesterday I didn't need tea but had to have a nanna nap and still nodded off watching telly - gosh aint middle age fun - pmsl If anyone finds a cute tortie & white cat with a pink collar and bell wandering can you send her home - 3C has been missing for 4 days now - apparently she went awol while I was away in Sept too - her 4 days are up so can only hope she comes back soon - just when we bought her a Chrissie present and all - how ungrateful can you get. Off to straighten hair and finish getting ready for work, catch up this arvo Gwenda

''whispers' good morning everybody, i'll try not to wake anybody up, just jumping on computer while it's free and wow what a lot of wonderful pictures thank you so much, fabulous to see the parties in full swing, and such a good time had by all ! i still don't understand about the police station - did trifley have to sign in every day lol ! i have never been to a gutter party but now i catch the drift and i might steal the idea as it looked so much fun and the decorated houses are gorgeous. we had our smoke go south yesterday mid-morning (sorry diyjude!), and luckily there's not been much wind. that could change this afternoon, we'll keep our fingers crossed for everybody affected.catch up with you all later when you're awake! mwah ~~~~~~ Hz

Thanks for the pickles one who would like to be a Queen - looks fun Hi HZ, smoke sounds nasty -pray for all fighting fires today and all those towns. Brandy - hope 3 C comes home, four days is a long time. Mr D has only been gone overnight and I am concerned Let's know what is happening Morning everyone else.
