Hi Wattlers, I'm with you Tony. I hope that they managed to sneak the miners out. As if they haven't been through enough. It has made me rethink the news programs that I watch. Already stopped watching Today because the new ones laugh annoys me. I too am praying for Sophie. We get a miracle and then it is taken away. Lew have sent you an email re list. Laurie did you feel like an orphan when you lots all those ancestors. I have found a new 3rd cousin once removed. That is if I can be sure I have found the right 3rd great grand father. I am about 99% sure, but things can change. I hope every one is feeling well who was ill before Rebs, I really don't mind where we go. I am happy to bring wine if we need to. Not a big drinker any way with the diabetes. It's the company that I am looking forward to. All the photos are great, it's nice to put faces to names and it seems that everyone got along together really well. Finger and toes crossed for the Lotto tonight, we could take over Palazzio Versace for the weekend and have a big get together. Tony, have you taken your holday at the Whitsunday's yet? or are you saving it for a rainy day. Also sorry to hear about your daughter, but as you say, it's pointless to stay in a unhappy relationship. All the new grandparents and surrogate ones ( I have Lew in mind ), congratulations. Well I had better get a move on, still got ancestors to find Love SuzyQ |

Hi again Lew that is not a bad idea to make a list of wattlers along with their partners and where they are from. I have had a look a the photos and have to try and put together a couple of partners would hate to put the wrong ones together lol. I think we may have done this on the earlier thread but we can try again and hopefully someone will compile a list and put it on the thread so we can all know, or else yust leave it up to each individual to save the info to their own puta. Well Im Sue, as you know Im Tassie born and bred and still here, live only 10 mins walk from where I my parents were living when I was born and they still live in the same house. I live in sin with my partner David, David recons that he doesnt want to get married and spoil a good thing. David was born in Melbourne and migrated south to live with me nearly 4 years ago. Cheers Sue |

Oh dear Tony - why the grim Oz - it sounds a bit too much like the grim reaper! Did you have salmon mousse for lunch out of one of those cans with no labels? Salmon mousse will do it every time. Thanks for the clearer lotto numbers - now all we have to do is wait for the right numbers to come up and it's time to get the enormous telly! All the better to see that contact sport thingy! By the way - I'm married to Chris and live in Toowoomba. No piccies on the net yet - trying to get somebody in my family who is computer literate to help me put them on but they are always too busy! Maybe tommorrow! Good luck for tonight everyone Anna I'm trying to help granson play PS2 game Monsters Inc - it's the blind leading the blind! |

Evening All, Thanks so much for the thoughts. Been out all day with eldest son and wife for my birthday. Had brunch but the gallery where we were supposed to buy my birthday present picture was closed! Son was not a happy little vegemite. Laurie, I don't think Botany Bay fish would be any safer to eat than Sydney Harbour fish!!! Going online to see the pictures at the website gallery and pay online pmsl. Could have done that in the first place! but it was a lovely day out anyway. Catch you all later tonight :) Vonny~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

Evening all, Just waiting for our home-made pizza to cook - Dave's one night when he gets in the kitchen. Mind I have to finish the toppings on mine - lol Thanks for the bigger lotto nos. Tony & clever Joodles. May we strike the big one tonight - got plenty of chances. We have a liquidamber out the front that has lots of leaves needing raking if you're so inclined Tony - pppppp I take after my Mum when it comes to being tidy - NOT - we have both always said the robbers would take one look and decide we had already been done over - pmsl Got all excited when I got an email about the Round the world trip winner - but no it wasn't me either - b****r Lara hope you're enjoying your stew at long last - how dare Tiger keep you waiting - I wouldn't have waited tho - lol Well peeps have a great night, catch ya later Gwenda |

Hi wattlers, Just popped in to say hello, have been on Grandchildren (supervision) can't say babysitting as they are older. Still got the cough but otherwise ok. Great Pictures of Yarrawonga, the pool looks lovley Lara. As we are doing names of OH's I am married to Mike for 40yrs and live in Wollongong. I had a similar thing happen to me 12 months ago, my brother in UK and I were building my mothers tree and a Grt Grandmother to us, we had her parents names, then one day we joined ancestry and I decided to check the 1861 census and it turned out we had the wrong family but the parents had the same names and same county. It turned out well because we later found some links with other people who had our family in their tree and I was able to get even further back. So it always pays to double check. Well good luck in the lotto, will catch you all tomorrow Cheers Sandra in the Gong |

Gwenda I thought it was nice photo mate , and couldn't have it before he came home as always thicken then dish it so would be s nuisance unless I dished his too and the kept it hot like we used to or heated it in the Microwave, but had it now and it was very nice if I do say so myself Tiger bought all the ingredients home yesterday and before I even got up this morning he had done the veges for me to just cook the meat and flavour the gravy with secret recipe and just cook it and I did that in the wonderful old bessemer ware pot its great for things like pot roasts stews etc and I've had it since adam was a boy. How was the pizza Tony ? Did you know to get a pizza here is a luxury when I used to go down to mums we used to get a small pizza between two of us and usually couldn't eat it all and it was lovely and between 5 and 6 it cost $5 up her we get a family size one and its $18 and 3 dollars for delivery and they are not too good either so usually wait till we are on the road to have a pizza. cu all tomorrow now Love Lara |

Hi Wafflers Nice to get to know some of your partners in crime. I've talked a lot about mine but just for those who don't know........I've been married to Graeme for just over 27 years and we have one son, Mark. We have lived on the Gold Coast in sunny Qld. for 3 years. Before that we moved around a bit because of Graeme's job as a NSW copper. If you've been on the photo page you cant have missed my album so you'll know what we look like. Graemes' at work tonight (security scanner Gold Coast airport) and Mark is out with some mates so I'm having a quiet night alone. I'm thinking of having an early night as I have a new book and I'm eager to get started with it. Will have to stay up to check the numbers tho'. Fingers X X I'll check back later. 'Bye ~waves from me on the Barge. Trifley |
