Hi Claire. O'k......now we have something to work on. That was the easy part. Now to see if i can find how he got here, and when. Many of our Ancestors came to Australia, but did not nessecarily sail straight to the State they settled in... first up. My Grandad sailed into Fremantle W.A.....and then virtually straight away, moved to Victoria, some 4,000 kms away and thats where they settled. Will do a bit more digging. Have GR emailed you. Cheers. Tony Oz...:>))

Good evening Wafflers . . . Firstly in case you look in Joodles, have a safe trip and enjoy your visit with sister Marie tomorrow . . . she is really looking forward to spending some time with you. I have sent you an sms as I have probably missed you on here. You just dont go leading my sister astray tomorrow night at the risel club. Be safe. Well done Tony, seems you have unearthed Claires family . . . Dont know what we are going to do with that cat . . . would you believe she has the nerve to call herself a princess on the other side !!! Cheek of her . . . I am going to be out at the archives of a Tuesday this year doing volunteer work so if anyone wants anything looked up give me a yell and I will see how I go. Just spent ages on the phone chatting to Paul, think he is missing his mumsy & dads just like they are missing him. We have just been working out a plan of attack for him to use to get some more Govt funding for a special little girl we know. They dont make it easy . . . but then we would complain if they did I suppose. Actually I think I should shut up about now because some of the policy is still in place from when I was involved with assisting to write it. Thanks for trying with the pics Tony . . . I will have a play with them again tomorrow. Lew didn't take her lappy with her . . . she said she would be using Petees as it is better than hers anyway and he gets to have to carry it . . . why am I not suprised ??? Poor Tiger seems to have had a terrible time, so Lara will have too. Thinking of you both Calling it a day . . . so catch you all tomorrow Hugs (()) for Trifley & Ducky and anyone else not feeling on top of things. Nigh nite - sleep well - sweet dreams luv Laurie

Thinking of you and Tiger Lara, let us know how things are going if you get a chance. Glad Lew's enjoying herself nothing worst than being seasick, I remember one day Ron and I went out deep sea fishing and it turned rough, I still shudder at the memory of that awful day.

~~~~~~~~~~~ to all, Been up, shopping, changed a pair of shoes and back before the heat :) I went to FSW, Gungahlin. My girls said that the new warehouse near the airport doesn't really have cheaper prices and Gungahlin is much closer :) Love Tony's new letters Shazz - and aren't you smart with a new lappy :) Know what you mean Tassie - eldest son and Dil have been staying with us for the last week and his computer won't run his games so I have to share!!! Not used to that anymore so I hover.................................... :) He is having private x-rays today for his hands and shoulder and back. Will cost a fortune but they are not happy with the public hospital results. Otherwise he seems to be fully recovered mentally. He is still on sick leave till end of the month. Well - the trip plans for the first month seem to be firming up. Looks like Kangaroo Island will have to be a day trip - it is right in the middle of the regatta at Goolwa so I don't think John will want to budge :) just going for a look see - I'll be back later. Catz - that was stretching things a bit far :) Vonny

Oooh Im back again for a minute. Vonny Shhhhhh that is my secret too, sometimes it works, if I hover around the puta to watch what they are doing or try and help them play the games :-))) they get sick of it and hop off heehee, doesnt always work though. Lara, must have missed something with Mike, I am picking up things are not the best with his knee op maybe??? Sening healing thoughts to him and a (((hug))) to you as it sounds like you could do with one. Well we are going to the swimming centre today, not the Basin where we usually go, it is too hot and the Basin will be full of id**ts, so we are going to the Windmill Hill Centre, have to pay there but it is safer for the kids, especially when there is a lot of people swimming and as it is 31 degrees already. Im even going to have a swim, well maybe just climb into pool and sit in a corner :-)))))))) Cheers Sue

Just reporting an sms message from the traveller . . . Joodles sms'd that she was in Cowra, and everything was going well at noon . . . about an hour and a half to West Wyalong where she will stay the night with my sister Marie. so all is good luv Laurie
