Hi Lara - thanks for starting another thread - like Mary said all looked a bit funny - lots of posts but nothing said - and that's not like us Wattlers - lol

Glad you and Mike had a nice break away - hope Mike's knee is okay.

Tony - lovely reminiscing - I had my hair in rags once but it still came out dead straight and I could sit all day with hair in curlers and still nothing - hair was so fine then.

Dave gets back tonight from his travels - hope he's coped with Darwin's humidity.

Time to look at menu for Vietnamese and get it ordered.

Good luck, fingers, toes and whatever else crossed for lotto tonight.

Washing trough's, Grandfather clock's,
Football boots with wooden stocks.
Skipping ropes, Velvet soaps,
Woolen scarf's and overcoats.

Men in spats,Old top hats,
Shingled roofs with tiled slats.
Old tin sheds,Wire beds,
Outside dunnys where the papers read.

Woodfire stoves,Ragged clothes,
Scratched your hives and picked ya nose.
Girls in frocks,Old Hopscotch,
Platted hair with Bobby socks.

Pony tails,Boys with snails,
Cubby house with Rusty nails.
Cracker night,At Twilight,
Every girl and boys delight.

Hot tar roads, Frogs and Toads,
Wooden pegs for washing loads.
Lino floors,Jacks and Taws,
Wooden homes with broken doors.

Trey's and Zack's,Chimney stacks,
Hobnailed boots with metal tacks.
Big gum trees,Bleeding knees,
Vinegar for itching fleas.

Old Jack frost,Cold ice blocks,
Cod-liver oil and Vick's for coughs.
Dr. Thars,Two inch scars,
Vaseline in little jars.

School Kit-bags,Sheep with dags,
Sisters hair in knotted rags.
Bonfire night,Brown paper kite,
Flying high right out of sight.

Gas Balloons,Golden tunes,
Stary nights with silvery moons.
Lovers lane,Tattooed name,
Hickey necks if you were game.

Buttoned shirts, Pleated skirts,
Pink Mohair jumpers for the flirts.
Pool and Darts, Hoods with Tarts,
Cruisin in their motor cars.

Brylcreamed hairs,Pants with Flares,
Spin the bottle...Truth or Dare's.
Rock or Jive,Your alive,
Record nights with 45s.
