Hi Joodles I'm having trouble with a spyware site. It's hi-jacked my home page and is annoying the s*** outta me! I've virus checked, spyware checked, restored the system and the butter of a thing keeps coming back. All I've done for the last 3 hours and most of yesterday is try to clean the b****y thing! :((((( Boiling in RINSO might be the last resort. TX |

Ooooh GAL (Great Aunt Lew) - another one to spoil - and a lovely name. .. She's a whopper all right - my biggest was son 8lb 3ozs, and I thought that was big enough! Last one (girl) was 6lb1oz - much easier ! Haven't heard the name Leila for yonks, used to go to school with one. Jood |

Good Morning Wattlers, I am getting very jealous with all this MM talk, do you think a web cam could be set up at Lew's place so that those not attending could take a sticky beak. Congratulations Great Aunt Lew, when do you get to meet the latest twig on your tree? Judy DIY, you will love the cheetahs. Neville and I were lucky enough to have one sit on us. It's a long story, so just to cut it short, through a friend we were invited backstage to a magicians dressing room and he used a cheetah in his show. We sat on the sofa which was the cheetahs seat, so he decided to sit on us. What a magnificent animal and his purr was like a train passing. The magician owned 2 and asked if we would like one. It was the meat bill that put us off LOL. btw the cheetah was ruled by the persian cat, very funny to watch. Mary and Lara, hope your OH's are still improving. Anna, I wish we could get 5mls. It seems like ages since we had rain, the tank is getting very low. Got 4 hot matches message today, so spent some time answering them. Tony, email coming your way, hope you can help, it sounds very intriging. Well, I must go, I still have washing to hang out and a carpet to vac. Luv SuzyQ |

Morning all Thought you'd like to see this - and noooooooooooo I didn't make it up! Elusive Ancestor I went searching for an ancestor. I cannot find him still. He moved around from place to place and did not leave a will. He married where a courthouse burned. He mended all his fences. He avoided any man who came to take the Census. He always kept his luggage packed, this man who had no fame. And every 20 years or so, this rascal changed his name. His parents came from Europe. They should be on some list Of passengers to the U.S., but somehow they got missed. And no one else in this world is searching for this man. So, I play genea-solitaire to find him if I can. I'm told he's buried in a plot, with a tombstone he was blessed; but the weather took engraving, and some vandals took the rest. He died before the county clerks decided to keep records. No Family Bible has emerged, in spite of all my efforts. To top it off this ancestor, who caused me many groans, Just to give me one more pain, betrothed a girl named JONES! --Merrell Kenworthy Have a good day all Love Jood |

Morning Wattlers, Just been out for the paper and got wet - yeah we had some wet stuff but think it has stopped now - so just enough to put big sploches on my work shirt and not much else - oh well. Daughter is now in Cairns - bit teary yesterday morning but so was her Mum so we made a good pair on the bus - lol Dave met her at the airport. They've been rental hunting but no luck so far. Met her boss and the big boss - everyone seems nice. Her boss has had 3 job offers and will be moving on in 4 months so if Dayna is interested she could be stepping up to his job or just about anything she wants - seems she has got lucky wth the Cairns International Hotel. While they were having coffee yesterday people at the next table we having 'high tea' with the tiered plates of cakes - Dayna was drooling. Today they are moving some of her stuff to her boss' so she won't have so much to take to the hotel where she has 3 days accommodation - he has also offered her his spare room if she can't find something soon - not that she wanted to live with her boss but better than nothing and maybe someone at work would like a flatmate - something will turn up hopefully. Better eat my brekky before it gets any soggier so will catch up with everyone tonight. Have a great day (((((hugs))))) and ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gwenda |
