I will try and get down Vonny - and Hellenic club is good for me . . . teehee . . . only one I know how to find! It's not that far from my nieces place and have been there a few times with her. (niece Lyn lives in Torrens) Shaz . . . free to come down with me ???? luv Laurie

A very quick good morning to all - I'm meant to be teaching today but now I've spent all my typing time reading :) Lovely to have some more imput from over the briny - I think our Cat was lonely sometimes :) LOL Hz - you're welcome to the gruel. We start our trip around the 4th March next year. Where we start will depend on how much water is in the Murray. We will have an official launching before that and I will let you all know. Do come down on the 9th Dec Laurie - and bring as many as you can with you :) Gwenda, Hellenic may be best as I don't think you have to pay for parking, do you? Tradies has a nice buffet lunch but it is pay parking during the day as far as I know. Got to go. I'm running late. ~~~~~~~~~ to all. have a great day, Vonny

Good Morning Wattlers, The sun is shining over Mudgee Valley and I'm being serenaded by two young magpies. The carting of water continues for Terry today and it's taking him longer now because of the queues which have started to form. We're lucky we have a bore, so we can continue to water the garden, but it's not good enough to drink. Sounds like there's going to be a nice little meet in Canberra. You going to gate crash, Loz? Thinking of you Fluffy and Trifles (((hugs))) Well, I've been busy this morning and, with the help of the handsome Claude, I have made a fresh batch of pills. Today's are purple and yellow and will cure very afflication known to man. Line up and no pushing! Waves to all ~~~~ Lew Lew

Morning Wattlers Hello to our newbies from over the other side. Laurie wow what a find, and to think it was there for so long withoout anyone, probably, knowing about it. Waggy welcome to the thread, you are not too far from an area some of my Ancestors were from, they lived in a small place called Brigstock, Northhamptonshire. Jeff, also welcome, yes the view that Laurie paints on here is exactly how it is, I was priveledged enough to see for myself when I travelled to Sydney for a meet in August. Cat now dont you go showing Jeff and Waggy how to pinch our numbers will you???? lol. Tamika is starting her job today and wouldnt you know it she came home from school yesterday with sore tonsils and her glands all swollen, she is having the day at home to rest cause she doesnt want to miss her first dy at work. Better go and do a bit of this FH stuff as I havent done any since we moved. I will pop in to keep a check on here. ~~~~ to all ~~~~ Cheers Sue

Good Morning Wafflers, See we are in fine form early this morning . . . must be the beautiful day that we have been blessed with. Botany Bay looks glorious, all blue and shiny, Rake man has just started his big job on the beach, there are two women out in front of him with metal detectors. Lots of lottle fishing boats bobbing on the watter, and the kite board thingys are right out in front of me. There are 4 giraffe necks stretched high in the sky, and an oil tanker has just tied up alongside at Kernell. ~~~~~~~ Jood, Tony, Heather, Darn Cat, John, Jeff . . . cuppa sounds good! I am having a very PINK day today . . . got to attack the cooking for TLR's Morning tea in the Pink at work tomorrow . . got my supply of food coloring and all the pink foods . . . sound like I have to cater for 30 so hope they can find their wallets. It's also our 35th wedding aniversary tomorrow . . seems like only yesterday ! teehee Ah well hope everyone has a wonderful day . . . make the most of it and smile often !! luv Laurie
