Awwww Tassie, I'm here. .. Just been so very very busy the past few days doing a program for a Club I belong to - so stressed out I am, I have had a backache the whole time - certainly not a good way to be prior to Mudgee. .. I'm tired, hot, and frail hahaha I'm trying to relax - haven't even thought about Mudgee - still a way off. .. I'll pack later today when it's cooler. Hmmmmm - wunner where Ray whisked Laurie off to - some desert island for dinner??? .. Must have kept her up late too! Well the Wattlers are starting to move en masse, almost like the 1,000 bikies riding one behind the other on the F3 to Newcastle today - thank god we are not going thattaway!!! Jood

Tassie looks in again .................. Still no one about:-(( Must be all heading to a meet or something ......... turns around with head down and saunters out of the room to go and play some games.

(i checked the fuses, i had petrol) finally rang the nrma and poss took me back. lifted the bonnet and the corrosion round the battery embarrASSED me to the max. car works again. just bit better than before. lovin hugs to everyone. yvette xxxxxxxxxxxx

SusyQ. Yes,mate..I'm sure most of us have family problems, one way or the other......I for one most certainly do. Unfortunatley, there the worst kind of problems.( Family ) I try to just keep smiling.... ( even through gritted teeth sometimes ).....because i refuse to die with high bloodpressure, and stress..like my father. Lots of warm wishes heading your way mate. Tony Oz...:>)))

Hi Wattlers, Just a bit down today, but Marilyn's Camilla joke cheered me up a bit , think she will fit it just fine. Marilyn, do you mind if I send your email to our group? I will also send you a list of the others. You will then receive heaps of jokes, photos etc. unless you tell us different. We are hoping that we will be able to leave the chickens where they are when we move, and the new owners can have them. If not there will be plenty of chicken soup if any one is interested. Sorry Mary. We could always drop them off at your place on our travels LOL Everyone will either be on their way or packing their bags now, I am trying not to think about it. Who will be around on Saturday and Sunday to chat with? Your know the saying, while the cats are away the mice will play. Just had an agent round to give us an appraisal, but not too happy with it. Neville said, 'well if I give you that amount of money can you buy me a place like this' The agent said no. I think that they had some one in mind with that amount of money to spend. Soon changed their tune when we said no way. Got another one coming on Friday. Talking of real Estate Agents, I just read Neil Jenmans book, he is the agent who warns you about the tricks they get up to. It is a good read if you are about to buy or sell. Hi Donna, good news about the MS, and it's nice to know where your mind is at LOL. Sorry about the arm though. That happened to a friend of mine, the good news is she is fine now, just takes a while. Just imagine, burning old photos. I think that must have happened to all ours, especially Neville's dad's. He had some of when he was in Australia as a young boy, but we lost touch with his brother, who may or may not have them. Does every one have family problems? Ours is quite bad at the moment, that's what is bringing me down. My dad wants too much for his home and neville is going crazy. I just feel like the meat in the middle. I must go, feeding time at the zoo Luv SuzyQ
