I will put in a good word to the printheth for you Tony . . Oh Yummy Turkish delight . . . most appropriate . . . just wish I had room for them - but I am full. I had dinner ready for the pot this evening when the young lass, Chahinaz, from downstairs came up to say 'Dont cook dinner tonight - mum is cooking dinner for you' So I sat down with a chardy in hand waiting . . . and up comes this most magnificent Lebanese feast I have ever seen. The girl can certainly cook. It was all so yummy . . . we tried but couldn't stack it all in so kept some left overs for both of us for lunch tomorrow. Off to roll into bed - so . . . Nigh nite - sleep well - sweet dreams luv Laurie

Oh thankyou Dr Tony. Do the pills actually cook tea???? Or do they just make me feel nicely nicely so I don't mind cooking tea???? Cheers Anna

Woke early as too hot to really sleep Wishing many blessings on everyone's day Thinking of firies and all threatened by fire - it is not getting any easier Glad Jood arrived safely Sounds like lew and Wattie are having fun Hugs for all not well Must be off to work JA

Morning all Man here doing my head in with his jackhammer! We have concrete cancer in the piece of concrete that goes under our garage door - so it's being jackhammered out as we speak! Darling daughter is not going to be happy as she was counting on a sleep in today to catch up on the sleep she lost on her movie marathon night! Have a good day everyone XX Anna

Oooooooooh Vonny you got the post ending in 666 ;-)

Not a drop!! Gwenda - that has happened so often lately. :( Although I didn't mind when it was hail you all got :) JA - I'll find out what is happening - it will be Sunday morning sometime.Just sprang it on me! Would love to see you :) Preparations are going apace and our Canadian friends are all booked and raring to go. They arrive on the 2nd March and we leave on the 6th. ~~~~~~~~~~~ to all. Hot again today!

Morning all.. Looks like another hottie today... Vonny Where are you planning on going for this holiday.. JA Dont work to hard...Is Mr. D home or out galavanting. Joodles Bet you had a good nights sleep after all that driving..Or did the littlies wake you up early.. Off to scrub up back later Love Mary xxxx

Hello to all ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` We had a bit of a drama last night. The kids got a phone call from ex who was driving Perth-Bendigo-Sydney in a 4WD with trailer full of furniture from his late mother's place (dropping off some stuff here before going home). A roo jumped out and totalled the front of his car, not drivable. He was miles and miles from anywhere in South Australia. The phone dropped out before they got too much info, he rang again, same thing happened. Obviously had no coins to ring again. (We all wondered why he didnt reverse call, but that's another story). I found a phone number for Greg to ring Police in one of the bigger towns, miles away from where he was. Some 3 hours later, Cheri & I were still up, and Greg was on his way over to SA to look for him, reload their 4WD and trailer, and get him to Bendigo at least. It was midnight before we got to bed, but I had a good sleep and was late getting up. I dont know if Cheri got any calls during the night. I wondered if something would happen this holiday - I thought maybe the bush fires would stop us going anywhere, or the power would be off or restricted (you probably heard about Victoria being without power for 3 hours the other day) - but I never dreamt G would have an accident. Ironically his late mother at 81 drove a Kombi Van from Perth to Sydney and flipped her van over somewhere in SA - went to hospital, came back to Van, continued to Sydney, Rockhampton in Qld, Mt Isa & Alice Springs in NT and then home to Perth!! Latest news, Greg 100 kms from Burra - no word from police or ex. so today we are just waiting around. Kids up before me? You're joking ! lol - one of them snuck up behind me and put her arms around me, I nearly jumped out of the chair! The computer is doing a Lara on me, and I've no idea why :(( Talk later, Love Jood

Ok who's deleting??? Now Jood's got the post ending in 666 or is it trying to tell you Wattlers something hehehe ;-ppp

Was just going to say the same thing JulieCat Just came on to read again and saw the 666 then read back to where I had started earlier and saw you mention Vonny getting it Still, took me a while to get on after seeing the 666 so maybe the 'devil' is having some fun with us - lol Back later, got a load of washing to hang Gwenda

Me thinks someone is having fun.. Poor Pus.. Love Mary xxxx

Good morning Wafflers from Botany Bay. Lovely hazy sunny day but the sea breeze is about so keeping it cool. Hive of activity out there again today with many families on and in the water. The skyline at Port Botany is a little different today . . . the first of the new giraffes is in place with neck stretched to the heavens . . . and it is so much taller than the others. In total there are 5 stretched necks, and the pilot boats have been busy assisting ships in and out of the port all morning. It is hard to sleep in when its so hot isn't it JA . . hope you have a good day at work. Hope the jackhammers have finished for you Anna . . . not a good sound, particularly when it is coming straight into the house. Vonny, are your friends from Canada going on the trip with you ? Make a big deal of the launch on Sunday . . . imagine John will be like mother hen, after all the work that has gone into the restoration. Oh Jood . . . what a night for you all. Hope all turns out well. Poor Greg out driving the night. Thinking of you ! Just enjoy your time with Cheri and the girls - thats why you are there. Someone is doing some housework on both sides of the fence . . . deletions over there too. Off to the library so catch up with you all later Hope everyone is having a lovely day . . luv Laurie

Trifley swallows Dr Tony's 'Martoonie' pills......aahhh! I can feel them doing me good!! My sense of taste has returned!!!!! The old legs aren't as wobbly!!! WOW! What great pills!! Thanks Dr Tony! If I feel better this afternoon I might even venture out to the shops for a walk and a coffee. Joodles.....life never seems dull with you. I hope the ex, trailer, furniture and Greg all arrive safely at Bendigo. Vonny....do you have the bottle of bubbly to crack over the boat when you launch it? 'God bless all who sail in her' Sorry I can't be there to perform the Queenly duties. Cool thoughts to all the wonderful Wattlers who are affected by the high temps. Wherever you are.....try to have a happy day! It's just as easy as having a miserable one and a lot more fun!! Big healing hugz to all who need them. Love Trifley X

Argggggggg *tears hair out* First of all my bank has changed its security and I can't do my online banking anymore and then............... I've just spent an hour trying to work through the Optus nightmare to try and upgrade my download allowance and I am no further advanced and have been on hold listening to canned music for most of the time!!! Pills, I need pills - purple, pink, yellow ANY Pills............. *sigh* ok rant over. have to go to the mall and reset all my internet banking details *sigh* see you later.....................................

Poor Vonny - what a headache Speaking of headaches, I've had one all day, and still have one. Greg arrived safely in Burra but no sign of ex, Cheri has been ringing cop shop after cop shop, AAMI, RAA, Jann has been ringing tow truck operator after tow truck operator and all the hospitals - still no news till 12noon today. Then, the call we were waiting for, he (ex) rang again, was in another town apparently, and waiting for a tow truck operator (can't believe it's taken so long) He did hurt himself, sore shoulder and hips - one helluva big kangaroo it seems. So Greg by this time is down in Clare, further south, and is very tired - he is having lunch now and then will make the approx 60km trip to where ex is (hopefully - unless tow truck operator has come and towed him to next town). I'm sure they will connect with each other soon. I said to Cheri a while ago, this is the first time the phone hasnt rung or she has been on it - for hours. We were very relieved to hear from ex, I can tell you. Wilson - glad you finally let me know. Yes same place as last time, and no table hopping this time please hahaha. Flakey - can you get time off? Would love a nanna nap right now, then we are going to do some family history (compare notes). Toodles Jood (did you say life was never dull with me Mary ??? hahaha) btw I diny delete nuffin

Gee it's been a quiet day today - must be all waffled out or else busy Vonny - are you getting any rain - we're having another lovely drop this side of town. Jood - what's the latest news - hope the blokes have been able to meet up - what a disaster but thankfully not any worse. Thanks for the pills Tony but I think I need some more cool breeze pills - it's not as windy tonight Off to sort late tea - daughter playing double netball game Gwenda
