hello all, should i be surprised at how that bloomin mongrel gets about. worse than the internet virus!!!! duck has the right idea kick it hard. its been raining still here proper rain . guage says18 mm in the back yard. thought about buckets , but the ground on which they stand needs it too. just been out with the junk mail in the stop for rain at the cricket. kiddies and poss are well ready for bed, but i've been on my bum for the arvo, so still have a little oomph left in me. oh jilly you're o/s how wonderful. love and kisses and hugs to everyone from Yvette x

Yeah Trifley - looking for a frenly face - surely I'll bump into at least ONE Wattler!!! Hey, how much did we win last night?? Hi Jill ~~~~~~~~~~~ Kppd

~~~~~Hi Jill~~~~~have a great time~~~~~~~ Hey Joodles.......'walking the streets'????? heeee heeee Just do what the Royal consort and I are going to do.....go from coffee shop to coffee shop! TX

No Queenie That knee got sore from kicking the doctor when she ran him down with her gopher.. Just to get an earlier appointment..and after she fell down the steps the first time.... thats right Merle isnt it..pmsl Love Mary xxxx

Hi Jill. Oooooh....... i would love to be in London right now. Enjoy your holiday with daughter, and have a great time in Ireland. Tony Oz.....:>))) * who can still taste the spuds of a little pub in Tralee....... soaking in sweet chilli sauce*....Yumm

Maybe that explains why her knee has been sore the last few days.....ooopppsss! TX

Merle...we've got rellies down Albany way, at Narrikup. They're selling up soon and moving into Albany proper....was there a fortnight ago, visiting ,during an impromptu drive-about in the motorhome. So sad to see so many frizzled farmlands on the way south....worse now, I guess after the fires.

ALL RISE....the Queen has entered the thread. * Does Benny Hill salute* Reads Wattle declaration: Section 9 paragraph 42 HERE YE.....HERE YE Any personage foundeth falling down holeths..ths ths ths... with Black dogs will be found Guilty of drinkingneth to access....and foreever to this dayeth will have all consumption of Alchehole watered down....persuthe or sumptin like dat.? Bows to the Queen whilest walking backwardth...and taketh his leave.....eth. Sir Toneth....:>))) Earl of anything

Ooooooh - wot you after Sir Toneth? lol I had a wee drap of wine, and I didnt fall down no black holes or see any black dogs (oops - just saw a brown one on TV lol) Hear ye - If anyone is in Mudgee at lunch time on Friday - keep an eye out for me, I'll be walking the streets tee hee Jood

Hi all finally got through but money about to go, having a great time tell all when I get home, In london at the moment off to Ireland tomorrow. am meeting my daughter Joanne in a mo. hope everyone is well take care Love Jillx

And I'll use some of Lady McBev's NAPISAN to bleach that bl***y black dog. It was here last week but a Fluffy Duck I know kicked the living s**t out of it and it ran away. Hugz TX

Of course we won't give up on you Merle, we are here for you - anytime. Yes Flutterbye is from Perth - she hasn't been in touch with us for a long while. Now you just climb outa that black hole, and I'd suggest you didn't fall backwards any more on the steps doing your egg sir sizes - it doesn't pay. tee hee I see WA is dryzabone over there - not here in NSW - its been falling heavily in quite a few places. I was in Perth over Xmas Bev, and I know just how dry it is. We even went up to Toodyay which has since had fires. Jood

Lucky, lucky peeps with your rain (deeply envious sigh). We were supposed to get some today...now told 'a chance of showers of Thursday'. Right! Oh well, OH and son #1 don't have an excuse any more...the rest of the pergola is at least going up as I type. Laurie...how about puffing some of that excess damp Westwards? Trifely....I can donate some Napisan to your brew if you like. Supposed to be the Ultimate in sanitation. Failing that, a call to the Queen of Clean is guaranteed to bring results. Merle...I've not been around much...hardly surprising you haven't registered my presence. Sorry about your black Dog...know all about HIM. Can I lend you a collar and muzzle? ~~~~~~~Jood . Hi to Wattlers I haven't met before

PS....or I'll come over to WA and boil you both in RINSO!!!!! TX

Big ~~~~~~~waves to Merle and Himself~~~~~~~ Sending BIG hugz and happy thoughts to you. Wot are you doing you silly butter.....falling down stairs??????? Were you pithed or not pithed enough??? I don't want to send an email in case the 'lap top bug' is still hiding but I'll tell you here and now..... You pick yourself up.....dust yourself off....and face the world again. THE QUEEN DEMANDS IT!!! :) :) :) Healing hugz winging their way to you both Trifley X

Hi guys, Merle and o.h. are still here. Havent been on becos I fell down those burttery steps again on tuesday and was so mad with myself I fell in a big deep hole. with only the 'black dog' for company Just coming out of it again.We're both a bit weary of holding each other up I need a break. not one of those bone ones either! Himself probably needs me to have a break too.**********. Do I see a Perth name on the thread? Is there actually another one from over here? I'm in touch with Sylvia by the way ,and Vivienne too so when I go to Perth in may perhaps we'll be able to arrange a mini meet. Nothing else to tell you . You don't want to know where I've been. Send me some healing hugz and don't give up on me. Love to all Merle

G'day Wattlers So nice to have you back in full swing Yvette xo Another interesting day for us!. Received an email from Lyn earlier today, in which she mentioned all the rain she had been getting . . . we had nothing at the time. Then heard that there was big storms out at Campbelltown on the radio! So, TLR thought he should go for a drive to Campbelltown and check out the Warehouse. When we got out there - there were signs out side to tell us they had received a good swamping, debris caught up high in fence etc, and when we got inside - there are leaks a plenty . . . we had to move stock to get it high and dry. There was another great downpour while we were there, and the water course between the Warehouse and the car park overflowedfor about 30 mins - but then it settled down. They are going to have some major leaks fixed this week. Then we did another little tour . . . ended up in Norton Street, Leichardt - checked out a few interesting shops and found a good coffee shop . . The Queen has edumuckated me well !!! Which leads me to think . . uuummm best get Ith Pritheth to check out the coffee shops in Mudgee and warn them to brush up on their technique of making large Caramel Latte with an extra shot of coffee . . . just like the queen likes it !! The Queen must have her coffee the way she likes it!!! We have just watched a storm come across the Bay from Cronulla . . . but it skimmed past us! I dont care . . . only ends up in the drink from here . . . best if it falls in the catchment area. TLR & I have made up some chicken kebabs to throw on the barbie for dinner tonight . . lets hope the weather holds off for us . . . I dont want to cook in the kitchen. Fingers crossed for our cricketers tonight . . be a pity to not have the final game in Adelaide. What about OOwwaarrhh's last delivery . . . fairytale stuff!! Sending positive healing thoughts to all those not feeling the best Catchya's later luv Laurie xoxo

A VERY cautiously optamistic Trifley wanders onto thread carrying lap top.........boiled in RINSO and soaked in Detol. After another (yes, this is the 6th spy check programme) go at the guts of the bl***y lap-top, I think we might, maybe, perhaps (fingers XXX'd) have got rid of the problem. I'm still not game to email anyone for a while in case the little bleeder is still hiding somewhere. Someone.....think it might have been SuzyQ???....also has a problem. The last programme I downloaded was AVG Anti-spyware. Go to Grisoft and click on the spyware one....NOT the virus one. They are diferent. Mary.....when are you and John going out dancing.....heee heee Anyone heard how Merle and Himself are lately? What about Ipswich Jillaroo.....any word or is she having too much fun? Big ~~~~~waves and happy thoughts to everyone Hugz Trifley X

~~~~~~~~~~ to McBev Jood - photo is on its way :) We are out for the night - meant to be a farewell BBQ for us as it was the only time we were available - and it is raining!!!!!!! (well its a wee bit wet). never mind all water is good water :) Lovely to read of the rain in other parts, hope it is widespread. Mary, what great news about John, so glad for you both. Can he lie down on the back seat of the car and come to Mudgee?? :) Great to see you back also Yvette. Hope you have got rid of the gremlins Trifles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vonny

Good Afternoon all - well we have been swamped here with the ongoing rain - every time I get a rello visit from the UK you can guarantee it will pour down. We have filled our rainwater tank, a garbage bin, 3 buckets, the wheelbarrow and various other water holding containers!! Anyone would think we were in the middle of a drought. And I moved the car out into the rain for a real good wash!! It hasn't been this clean in ages.... Looking forward to seeing all the lovely Wattlers up at Mudgee next weekend. Am now on a month's leave from work, but will be out and about doing the tourist guide thing with dear brother in law.(aka The Rain God) Must dash as off to Lebanese Restaurant at Punchbowl with family. See you soon Lyn
