Darling Laurie. Thank you so much for my card! It was really quite touching. I just said to Terry 'And this is from a girl that I've only actually met twice!' Thanks, Mate. You're a treasure. Lew Lew xxx :-)))))

Jill - speaking of mouth ulcers, I'd forgotten about them, but they came back last night - gargled with salt water and almost gone today. .. I've just finished what I hope is my last lot of antibiotics forever, so expect everything to magically disappear and get better now. To those with back pain I heartily endorse aquarobics, or walking in (warm) water. I also prefer an Osteo to Physio or Chiro. Mind you - I have had several different types of treatment from different Osteos but my current one does a lot of rocking. (in certain places), and its very very effective. Oh - and remedial massages are wonderful Jood

Walked around Picadilly circus last night, and the town is a Buzz chockers with thousands of peeps and Hotels /cafe's at Midnight. Barb was saying so different from Darn tarn Melbin.......where you could fire a cannon ball up the street at Midnight and not hit anyone??? Well off to catch a train, and hope everyone is well. Tony Oz........:>)))

gidday mate Jood

Evening Wattlers Just flying through, have to take DD to scouts. I went to our local shopping centre, like I mentioned earlier, well they was giving away tickets for chocolate wheel spins so I got 2 tickets for each spin and on the last spin I won a $20.00 voucher for Noni B clothes shop, havent bought anything yet. When you talked about names and name changes, I found a mistake in my tree, the people, most probably the minister or Dr when registering my Geat Uncle they had it listed Linnisia it should have been Lyndsay, and quite a few who where doing our tree but didnt know the person had the wrong name, it did have me confused for a bit then we realised the dates were exactly the same so we have made it as either a mistake by whoever wrote down the record or when they got back to the office it could have been changed. Be back after, Cheers Sue

Hey Rebs! Am I being punished? I have no pickles!!!

Lew, just emailed mine to you. I have made them smaller, cropped them, and lightened them Jood

Thank you, Hunny. I was starting to get paranoid!!!

No problems, I sent her a copy of the reduced pickles a couple of hours ago and she hasnt replied, so thats why I sent you a copy, thought it would be quicker. Guess what! Got my first hot match - girl in England. Only trouble is - Im the one with the info - she doesnt know much! Oh well, I dont mind. Jood

Jood LOL A hat and a jacket have been packed, two disposable cameras (on sale :) some munchies and my caffine free drink, some chewing gum for the plane and panadol + assorted medicines already bought. I organised the $US and insurance and I've just been talking to my credit card provider. Just as well I did as they had JOHN travelling not ME. That might have been a shock when they blocked my card! John is getting yummy left-overs for tea. isn't he lucky? Hope to get some time to properly look at all the stuff Hz got for me. Rebs, enjoy tomorrow, one more sleep. I do hope you have planned what to do in your retirement! ppppppppp catch you later gators.

Hi all you lovely lot.. Just got home a couple of hours ago and an hour after we got home the couple who want to buy our house came round to do a building inspection.. He is a builder and so did his own inspection.. They are a lovely couple and we are so glad to be selling to them and not Mr. Picky...They were so worried we would accept a higher offer but I said if we said we accept their offer we will not look at another one.. higher or lower..I dont believe in gasumpting..I am so glad it is now virtually over ans we can get on with buying our own unit...We may be able to exchange contracts at the same time and thus avoid bridging finance..Funny they never saw the house advertised but she only saw it when she brought her child to the pool across the road for swimming lessons..It is only a small pool and not many children go there for lessons but they were amazed they hadent seen it advertised in the paper..Thank you for all your prayers and good wishes as it has paid off. and our prayers were heard..Love you all.. I am so tired you will have to wait till tomorrow for the picks..sorry but I dont think I can focus at the moment.. See ya tamurro.. Love Maryxxx

*runs through thread screaming and tearing her hair out*

Glad you're safely home Mary. Have a good sleep. How wonderful about the house going to such nice peeps. :) SusyQ, you forgot to tell Carol that if we can't shorten it or add O, we first of all shorten it a bit, then make it longer by adding Y on the end. ~~~~~~~~Vonny

Angel Cat, because of the essay, assignment or test???? You could send me the essay and I'll proof read it if you like :) Seriously, I do it for the kids who have just gone/are still going through Uni and for my hubby when he was at Uni! Vonny

Hi Jude I think Rebs is still at our lunch meeting place. Trying to pull her stiletto heel out of the drain in the 'ladies'. Welcome Louisa, I'm in the wonderful sunshine state. I'm no nutter, regardless of what others say. SuzyQ, I am with westnet and this month, I used my 500mb in just under 2 weeks. Ended up unsubscribing to the mailing lists I was on cause it was taking me all day to read my emails. And I always turn my puta off as well. I don't really think Lew's house would be game to get dirty before the weekend. Laurie, think of you at least four times a day (taking Ben to and from work and return). Go past a block of units being built along the waterfront and there is a single giraffe there. Think to myself, ' yea Laurie, I can see a giraffe too'. Just reminds me of you as I go past. Where did you do your search putting in your Grandmas name and her Mums name? Is it NSW BDMs or what? Maybe I might one day find my brick wall doing something like this. Jill, what site do you do your Irish research on. I accidently delete a file which had quite a few Irish sites on and now I'm stuck. Yvette, please send your OH up to the Maroons state. Need help and massage. Vonny, why UNpacking? Cat, do the test and just let the nervous breakdown happen. It will take care of itself otherwise aren't you worried about who might treat you ???? Lew, enjoy tomorra. Hi ya to all The little duck

Pam you have a point lol Vonny thanks for the offer but I haven't even finished it yet, it's being left now until tonight. It also has to be in tomorrow lol. Psychology and sociology bore me so I kept putting them off and off and am now left with very little time, my own fault although I usually work better on the last minute. I did an English essay the night before it was due in and spent time on here too lol. I managed to get an A for that. I won't get the possible level three for this and to be truthful I don't really care I just want it over with. I'm looking forward to September now when I can concentrate on the humanities side of things which is what really interests me. I have to admit if I'd found out sooner than I did that I could have dropped this bit then I would have. Ah well the test will be taken and the essay will get done. See you all later :-)

hehe!!! loved the froggies. Anyone want the solution???

i am picking up on a psychic thing there are people about to travel , lucky b*****s, i'm really too lazy to look back and get the details right, but i hope you have the bestest of best times. i got a nice little tax return this year, told the family i was going to uk - alone- they laughed and reckoned i wouldn't save spending money. the little poos, i had to blow a fair proportion of it on a day trip to the hospital instead. i am actually quite nervous about this bcc removal. haven't admitted it to the family,coz they 're under the impression i'm brave. next time my OH is on a short warning i may send him up the coast, or at least threaten it. he works from home so that means i have to make an effort to go out. last term he's had another job as well so its a bit more bearable. i'm off to bed, start work at new location tomorrow and need to look relaxed when i get there. lotsa love Yvette
