Hi.....I'm back. I've been inundated with rels all week so i haven't been able to spend much time on the net. We had 9 here at one stage....not counting me, Mark or Graeme. No wonder I felt jet lagged. I haven't caught up on all the posts.....except for the one about the Wattle Birthday party on the other place. I'll be there with my new martoonie glass. I broke the old one so Jade (Mark's girlfriend) bought me a pretty new one with a red stem......thoughtful girl. Hope you are all fit and happy. I'm off to put my feet up. see ya later.

Good afternoon all just going by on my way to the Seniors card site to apply for my card havn't done it yet and lady opposite gave me the book and some good discounts available to us senior peeps hehe got some scones in the oven and all is well getting excited re the party , see you all later hi Bev and Vonny looks like all the others out gallivanting bye for love Lara

Afternoon Wattlers Well yes Tony I had already gone when you asked me if we are on Daylight saving already, As others in the know have answered yes we have been on Daylight saving since 1st October, I do believe they are asking Vic and NSW to come to the party and join Tas so it makes it easier for companies etc, and of course it makes sense for the mainland to join us as we was the first ones to start daylight saving on a permanent basis. But then we have white curtains, cows that cant tell time and a hammer pmsl. Glad we went to show on Thursday as it is raining at present for last day of show, it wasnt supposed to but then its show week :-) All you lucky people meeting for our birthday, think of us wont you ............... yeah I bet you will............... too busy having fun to stop for a moment to think of us :-( Oh go ahead and have fun, we would if we was in your shoes lol. I will pop in to Weekender tomorrow evening after I get home from my meeting, this one is only in town so I dont have to take bus around any roundabouts lol. Cheers Sue

Bev, Once you have clicked on 'Latest reply first' then just save that addy to favourites. it always goes to the latest reply. (then you have to catch up!!!) That is what most of us do, although some of us play with some word threads and so I have them saved to favourites also :) Vonny ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Out for afternoon and evening so see you all tomorrow.

Right ..that's done, then. Now....a question. At the moment, I am finding the Wattlers by clicking on 'my threads' then 'all replies' then 'latest reply'. Is there a quicker way to get here, without having to wade through all the sludge that still seems to be building up outside?

Morning all. Golly,I'll have to type real fast to catch up. Hi Fanny..I hear WA did well in cricket this time Thanx for the pills Lew Lew -I'm not much of a pill popper-might just lurk around and take my time learning the dress code Anna.........blood? You must have an interesting recipe file Vonny..hello again. I gather you don't practice salary sacrifice then. The boat sounds nice...always wanted to try that, but never will now (sigh) Thanks for the Who's Who Jood. Have it copied out and promise to study it carefully ~~~Laurie...we've met at the Weekender..nice to see you Hi Cat...it's OK to talk to yourself. I do a lot of that cos folk go to bed early, I've noticed ~~~Jude and Lara. Don't think I'll ever get to any parties, but here's to your very good health anyway (raises glass of orange juice) You were all right. If I keep away from other threads, it should be OK. Off to renew. Bev from the Wild West

For those who wish to know - there will be a party tomorrow evening at the weekender. if anyone wants to come and still hasn't got an invite please let me know today ASAP and i'll try and organise one. it is just a small quiet affair, pppppppppppppp Lew Lew and Rebs are orgnizing the bar corner, bartender and pole!! Vonny

i've been at the cricket since 7.30 this morning. when i got up it was lovely outside. looked at the clock and was 5.30. back home to do some 'important stuff', so please don't distract me. only poss and myself here so its quiet. enjoy your day! love yvette x

I'm getting all mixed up here - I don't think I explained myself very well. .. Maybe been here too long, think I'll go out .. pmsl. Ahhhhhhhhhh - now I know. .. We are having our first (legal) birthday tomorrow, but I have known peeps longer than that. .. We had a previous (illegal) get together about 6 months earlier down sarth. .. Shazz, Leah, Jood, Laurie, & Sandra with their friends and OH's. .. The Wattlers were born at Brighton le Sands. But I'm still going out. Have a great day all. Jood

Morning all ~~~~~~~~ pmsl Cat - you had to work hard for that one :) As Gwenda says - who wants February in October :( actually threw off the doona last night. trying to tidy up my inbox today - peeps keep sending me stuff! LOl I've just got to get more organised. Yes, we are taking all the long service in one hit. I did suggest we could take some at half pay but he-who-works doesn't think we could pay the mortgage and live on half pay. The boat is looking spectatular. It is having it's four coats of varnish applied this week. Then it is turned over and work begins on the inside. Must away and get dressed and go shopping. Mcbev - I suggest you are VERY careful of what pills you swallow on this thread!!! Vonny

Morning all Just a quick wave - I have to go and make blood! The girls need it for their film. Wish me luck! We got the recipe off a vampire site on the net! Healing thoughts to SuzyQ and Cilla and Donna. Hope everyone else is in fine fettle. Laurie and company - have a great 1st birthday - hope our numbers come up so that we can celebrate!

By crikey, Cat, one of these days, you're going to cop it!!! pmsl. Just wait. I WILL be in the UK and then there's going to be hell to pay. Morning Wattlers, as you can see that bloody Cat's been at it again! SuzyQ, look after yourself, my friend. Pam, Mel and Ben, you are constantly in my thoughts (((hugs))) Thanks for keeping us posted, Laurie. What you been up to Trifles? Any more retail therapy? Mary, are you back from your gold digging? Or did you find a big one and have taken off with it? All those going to Jude's, have a great time and take lots of pickles. Pecan pie looked wonderful, Jood. I'd have shared it with you! mmmmmm Going to be another hot one here (33C), so I've turned the pool temp back. Was still swimming in it at 7pm last night. Cilla, I hope you find out what's going on. The stress of not knowing can't be good for you. MacBev, welcome to the Wattlers main homestead. We've chatted before in the weekender. Don't listen to most of what you hear on here. There are a lot of delusional people on this thread, but I do my best to keep them medicated. Here, take this little wattle yellow pill and you'll fit in just fine. Guests have just left and the next lot arrive tomorrow. They're leaving Tuesday. Better go and make the bedroom up. ~~~waves to all the other Wattlers I haven't mentioned (too many these days to name them all and I'm sure to forget someone~~~ Lew Lew xxx
