Mmmmmm.. *makes mental note to email Terry personally* Added by Mary in Sydney on 04/01/2007 10:50:49 *think of the plastic you could bend while he is skiing* The Snitch.

Lew Switzerland is a long way to go sking.. Would it not be nearer to go to Canada or the States.. OH the plane trip I would have a sore bum before I got there , and one comming home from all the times I fell on it..LOL It is beautiful though,, You should go with him,,think of the plastic you could bend while he is skiing...OO LA LA,, the thought of it..He probably dosent mind you going to the Antartic as he knows there is no shop down there...and you cant spend the money...lol,he,he, Love Mary xxx

No Mary, I'm going with my friend Pete. When I get back, Terry is going skiing in Switzerland for a couple of weeks. He does this every year and I always stay home and say that I will have a holiday by myself, but I never do, so this is the first time (in 23 years!!!) that I'm finally doing it.

Lew isnt Terry going on this trip.. I thought he liked cold snow and things.. Love Mary xxx

Bit hot to be trying on the Antarctic gear, Fanny, pmsl. You'll have to wait until my return from the trip. Petee (my travel partner) does have a new video camera, so that should be interesting, lol. Mary, we drive to Adelaide from here in a day (13.25 hours), so Sydney and back is no big deal. Vonny, a gal after my own heart. Terry always calls be 'Emelda McMahon' heeee. Tassie, sounds like you had a wonderful few days away. I love Wineglass Bay. As a matter of fact, I love Tasmania, although I'm told she's pretty hot in Hobart Town tonight (friends down on Constitution Dock) Poor Gong, still not well. Mmmmm, more pills for you. I have some lovely new ones - Baileys flavoured! And as for self medicating, I don't think so!!!!! That privilege is only for those with serious qualifications, like myself HRH Dr Lew Lew xxx

Lew What a long way to go in one day there and back..I am glad you are home safely.. You should have stayed the night somewhere.. Glad you got what you wanted,, Is it enough to get you through the cold days down there.. Have a early night and see ya ta murro Love Mary xxx

piccies of modelled items ? if you make us all a supply, we can self medicate! what a nice day to go to the city gwenda, my friend came around the other day, and she said...mmm Yvette i think you need a bit of a tidy up. mind you she's single, only lived back in australia for 2 years and in her new apartment for 1. My prob is 2 fold too many kids who in turn have too much rubbish computer is in my room, every time i go for the big tidy, I get stuck on here vonny, you will have to keep going to flash doos to wear ya shoos sounds like you've had a great time sue, bloomin snakes - remember cilla with hers out the back? Is the virgin back yet? yvette x

Evening Wattlers, just a quick note to let you know that we're home safely and I did some really good shopping :-))) One jacket, 2 spencers, 2 pairs of leggings, ski pants, a pair of gloves and a pair of mittens - Cost?? $316.05. What a bargain. Kathmandu was having a half price sale. Gotta be happy about that! Only things left to buy are some Explorer socks and gum boots. Lily (the new car for those who don't know), had her first big trip and did very well. In old speak, 45 miles to the gallon, which is very, very good, especially compared to our Mitsubishi Challenger (the gas guzzler). I'm going into Mudgee tomorrow, so will do the Lotto then. Haven't had a chance to read the thread, but will get back to you all soon. HRH Dr Lew Lew PS Who should I leave in charge of the pills whilst I'm away??? Suggestions please (and make them nice, lol)

Evening everyone. Sue ( Tassie ) Sounds like you and David had a nice break. Burwood Cemetery is about 20min drive from me, and in the 70s i worked opposite it at a B.B.Q / Incinerator retail outlet in Highbury Rd.Burwood. We used to joke to the odd customer about it, saying that if and when they died, if they couldnt afford a Cremation, we were only to happy to oblige....lol Just send me the details Sue ( names ) and i will only be to happy to take a few pickles mate. Or you can Email me the Photo you have, to give me a clue to where they are buried if you want. 36c tomorrow in Melbin, so another warm day coming up. The roads are empty, as most are on holidays, and at least makes it enjoyable for travelling on. Tony Oz...:>))

HI Tassie Welcome back, looks like you had a lovely weekend. Sure sounds like it..That lunch you had sounds lovely so if I get to Tassie I will want the name of that place.. I was mentioning to Joodles that we had forgotton to get Sylvias phone number so that Joodles could give Sylvia a ring while in WA. I am sure Sylvia would have liked that.. never mind, perhaps next visit.. Joodles Are you home yet,?????? OH is cooking dinner tonight,, a pasta dish with italian ingredients,,looks good, he bought a bottle of Frascati wine to have with it..One thing he can still do is potter around our little kitchen and cook, He is a good cook and it takes his mind off his problems..Thats my story and I am sticking to it...lol he dosent do it as often now as he used to but I never say no when he say he is going to cook dinner... I will look after happy hour.... Well must go and get Happy Hour ready so back later Love Mary xxxxx

Hi Wattlers Well it seems like some have had a good time and others not so good with tummy bug etc. I've read back over about 8 pages of happenings since I went away. Jood I was going to look you up as I went through Perth on way to coast, then I realised you was in Perth WA not Perth Tassie hee hee. Merle I'm sorry but I got a real laugh from reading about your posts, sounds like something I would do. Listening about your going ons and then I see where Sylvia and Norm was mentioned, I dont know what Mary thinks but it sounds like Merle and Sylvia may have a bit in common with OH's, not sure how close they live to each other, may be good support for each other if they lived close? Tony I might take you up on your offer for a pic of a grave in Vic if you go near Burwood Cemetry?? My GG Grandparents are buried there along with one of their sons. I do have a pic but it was taken by an old camera, ie before digital and the pic is not real good. Let me know if you go near that area and I will give you the details I only have names though, not sure exactly what position they are in the Cemetry. Well David and myself had a lovely few days away. After seeing the New Year in out the front of our place with next door neighbour and had a couple of drinks, we left on New Years Day about 10.30 and went to St Helens, on the way we drove though St Marys pass which was one of the places effected by the fires, it really shows just how hot the fires got when steel guide posts and the steel rope that stops the cars from going over the edge are all bend and the ropes sagging to the ground from the heat from the fire. Also we went through Scamander where they lost some houses, you hear so much about how a fire will get one spot and miss the next, but it doesnt reall hit home till you see it in reality. On Tuesday we wnet to Wineglass Bay and walked up to the lookout, then decided to walk down to the beach where we had lunch, then we decided to walk the round trip back to the car park, it was about an hour longer but a lot flatter, so in all we walked 11ks in about 5 hours. Yesterday we had a look around St Helens and went for a walk around Humbug point, walking towards Binnalong Bay and Bay of Fires, but after a while of walking through a bush track we decided to turn around and go back, as we had seen enough of the shoreline and had nearly got to where we had been on previous trips, well after walking a short way David stops dead and said 'SNAKE' well, poor ol heart did start beating fast, we stood still for a moment to see where he went and as soon as he went away from the track we was on, we soon rushed past the spot and didnt look back til we got out of the bush and back to the car. So that was the end of our walking for the day. Today we left for home but made a small detour and went to the Elephant Pass and stopped at the Mt Elephant Pancake place and had Chicken and Mushroom pancakes for lunch. Then home for a rest lol. I have piccys when I load them on puta, will sent them out to Wattlers, but if you dont want them if download has reached limit let me know. Cheers Sue

OOOOhhhh Vonny's the Imelda of the Wattlers - lol Sandra - hope you feel better soon. Trifley - don't you wish it would rain overnight instead of when you need to get washing dry. It's all sunshine here now - last lot of rain was yesterday morning when I would have been out for my walk so guess who didn't have a walk - did vacuum instead and did a bit of a tidy up in the bedroom so that when the wardrobe guy comes next week this place doesn't look too much like a tip. Unfortunately it will take more than what I've already done to make a difference - it's so depressing. Tony - thanks mate - have pm'd Take it easy now that summer has hit - Adelaide's due for a 40 today so guess who's in line tomorrow - you'll be downing quite a few VBs me thinks Jood - hope you have a safe trip home ~~~~~~~to all~~~~~~~ Gwenda

Mary, We went to some discount shoe warehouse place (FSW) so the plastic is only slightly melted. I got 2 pairs of Diana ferrari, 1 pair labled MG and 1 pair labled Pianno. The lables mean nothing to me! but she assures me that $200 is a good buy for 4 pairs :) Ooooooo, never had so many shoes in my life!! LOL Vonny

Rain, glorious rain! The GC is very damp and by the looks of the sky we are in for more.....yipppeee. The only butter is drying clothes. The patio looks like a Chinese laundry. Crew....which boat are you going on and where do you sail from? Take a video camera and you and your mate could start a doco like the Leyland brothers....lol. Yvette....we have a gym at Robina which is just for women too. It's called Fernwood. I get my exercise walking past it.....heeee heee. Gotta go move the fans on the clothes.....see ya later.
