Donna Bill Cody may be William Frederick Cody, or, Buffalo Bill. He had his own 'Wild West Show' in the States. Just 'google 'and you will get pictures of him.

OK, I'll have another cuppa with you Suzi and Jeanie(hi), cake's all down the cake hole. I hadn't read all the previous pages properly, so happy that your sd is coming Donna, that is really great news. love Yvette x

Good Morning Wattlers, It is mixed, sunny and cloud, slight breeze, but very smokey. We have a fire that has been burning since Sunday. It's in the hills were there are heaps of trees, so the firies can't get to it. They are just keeping a close eye on it. It has now moved to directly behind us. Can't see the fire but can see the smoke. Hi Lara, I think that I should have you number,yes, will try and call you later. I am trying to find a day but it looks impossible at the moment. Will let you know. Still laugh at the thought of you pushing the car. Sorry Great news about the SD Donna, I bet your Daz is really looking forward to seeing her. Who knows, she may decide that she would like to stay. Hope the shoulder starts to feel better soon, but these things often take time. Poor Lew, you never know, she might be cured by Wednesday, she could have found a new way to occupy her lazy retirement days. NOT Does anyone have a web cam? Was thinking it may be a way we could all get together for a Christmas drink. Glad you had some birthday cake Yvette, where is my piece? Did you get a job yet? I would love to sit in the gutter with you on the 9th Shazz, but I just can't make it Sorry. Well, coffee time, catch you later Bye SuzyQ

helloo, gadabouts, shoppers, late night viewers (in the UK) and lovelies. its a beautiful day down here on the coast, although would be happy for a few drops of rain. between the reading , i've been out the back watching pee wee flying lessons and rescued a baby sparrow from the guinea pigs cage, much to the disappointment of the pooches, it was providing great entertainment. sadly today no washing to do, so no real excuse for being in my fave chillout place (the washing line space). sooo I'm back off to being boring, catch you later love Yvette x PS did ya think you were writing a poem lara?

Wow thats weird, now I know what you meant Jill as I didn't do that to my message????????? Lara

Morning Wattlers..Beautiful day here today.Getting a bit warm but I dont mind. Went to have a look at the new big Home Center yesterday and boy it is big.. Didnt stay long as I was actually on my way to Bunnings to get some plants for my little garden. Bought some petunias and 5 herbs which I am growing in with the flowers. They look quite good. We had a fire drill at the Club today but thank goodness we were not involved.Mainly for staff and a few units close by. Pam.. Big hugs for today as I know it is going to be a big day for you, We are here for you so feel free to come and let us cheer you up. Trifley Hope you are having a good time and go easy on the phone..pmsl Lew.. Bet she goes into Mudgee to use the puta,,lol ~~~~~~to all~~~~~~ Back later Mary xxxxx

Just dropping back in on my way out . . . Hi Waggy Gwenda . . . the yanks retracted their ban on the old Vegemite . . . saw the error of their ways!! Twas on the weekend news, so I quickly sms'd Ducky . . . . Mel went shopping and stocked up !! Off out for lunch - hope you all have a lovely day luv Laurie

Evening Wattlers, Donna – Nice to see you back after 20 pages, and sorry to hear the shoulder still playing up. I wasn’t much help then, was I. Let’s hope the cortisone does the trick. Maybe it takes a few days to be effective. There’s been so many apologies, Yvette, did anyone remember your birthday? Well at least I didn’t forget it as I didn’t even know about, but I hope it was a good ‘un. Took a copy of the Barra Brith recipe. Thanks Joodles. I'll see if I can get Grace (that's Mrs Waggy by the way) to make it. She'll probably tell me to do it myself. Waggy

Morning Wattlers, woops just dropped back to page 2 gotta make this quick as I'm behind schedule and need to get heaps done today Pam - thinking of you today but hope you didn't pack the Vegemite as it is banned in the States - got folate in it and they only have folate in bread so anything else with folate is banned. Poor little expats can't have their vegemite anymore - what a crock Donna - glad sd is coming for Chrissie. Digi Cat - got the email - thanks Joy - where'd you go - come back I didn't get a chance to welcome you Shazz - you quiet - pmsl Off to shower and brekky before the day is over and I don't get a thing done. CU this arvo Gwenda

Good morning Wattlers, Another glorious looking day on Botany Bay - the sun is doing it's thing to wake up the world. The Bay is looking like a mirror, with four giraffe necks stretched to the heavens, as the pilot boats escort a highly laden container ship out of the bay. TLR had an early start today, so I have head start on the day. Washing is done, so as soon as the library is open I intend to go up there for a few hours. Trying to find out about the early 'Hawkers' see what sort of a life my gtgramps may have had when he came out from Denmark. Pam, you will have seen off the bags filled with vegemite and Tim Tams early this morning - no doubt you have a mixed bag of emotions . . . thinking of you, sending hugs (()) Flakes, hope mum is OK - and that you are looking after yourself too . . . its hard seeing awful things happen to those you love at any time but when they are getting frail it just not fair. Sitting in the sun is making me sleepy, so I think I will go inside for a while. Catch you all later luv Laurie PS . . you snuk in on me there Shaz . . . you used that nice word Angelic in relation to the cat . . . not on . . . been banned . . . that one is THE DIGITAL CAT !!!!!! I'll sit in the gutter with you on the 9th . . . most people dont put their decos up before the first weekend in December anyway do they - so if you had it the weekend before - the street wouldn't be in all its glory!
