Suzy Good idea about the Council - however, knowing councils it will probably take them a month of Sundays to get there! I loved the schools spectacular - we have it on tape. Yes Mary - get your litle tail up to Brisvegas - it will be 12 months in May since we had the last Brisvegas meet. Cheers Anna

Hi Anna, I will ring the council in the morning to remove the roo, if the stench does'nt kill us in the night. Its must be too hot for the crows LOL Vonny, thanks for the pics, you must be very proud, it's too nice to get wet LOL It's like being at an air show today all the planes taking off and landing. We have an illegal air strip close by. Another call to the council. btw Anna, neville is watching the school spectacular, can hear that beautiful girl singer. Mary hope you can make it up here soon Bye again SuzyQ

Hey SuzyQ Good to see you back on board. Talking to the Wattlers is always a pick-me-up. Hope you get your puter problems sorted and that life gets better from now on. Don't know what you can do about the rotten roo though!!!!! Where are the flamin' crows??? So Neville will be 21 again??? Cheers and hugz Anna

Love ya all Mary xxxxx Hi Ducks,,, What ya been up to lately...If John improves after this operation we hope to take a holiday to Brisvagus, so hope to catch up with all my beautiful Queenslader friends, Will have to wait and see.Around May probably..

Hi everyone, Just to let you know that I am still live and kicking. I haven't been a very happy grl, just got a bit down, but I think I am coming out of it now. Got a few problems to sort out, but getting there. I have been reading every ones antics and I notice that I am not the only one a bit under the weather so to speak. Not a good start for 2007 so it can only get better. Not all bad, I have made a few contacts re FH, just hope that some of them come through. It is a hot one today, but there is a breeze blowing through the window to make it liveable. Lara, do be careful, it sounds a very drastic diet that you are on, but on the other hand if it works please let me know what it is, I would love to loose about 25 kilos. Hope Mike is feeling better. Yvette, we should have had a chat to get over the blues together. LOL One of my problems has been my puta. I downloaded the 2007 edition of my internet security and every thing has decided to go slow. And I keep getting web sites popping up all he ime. I will be writing a strong letter to trend micro today. I also downloaded Google Earth, but the pictures that I am getting are very old. Do I need to pay $20 to get up to date ones? Don't know what is happening now, but not all the letters are printing, keeping having to go back and put them in. There is also a dead kangaroo at the other side of the road that is starting to smell quite ripe. Yuk Ducky, I hope that you will soon start to feel better, my thoughts are with you. Jill, I hope that the weather picks up for your holiday, won't be long now. My turn for Lotto this week, can't forget it because it is on Neville's birthday. Will probably get it on Friday. I think that I should go now, feeling better already jus chatting to you Bye for now SuzyQ

~~~~~~~~~~ to everyone. Piccys on their way. Was great to see the boat float and the engine start. Such a good beginning for our hols!!! :) Let me know if you don't get them. Those who visit the weekender can see a photo on the thread and also some on the Photo's page :) Poor Lara - I do hope you are being careful. Are you feeling awful because of the diet or because of a bug? Diets shouldn't make you feel THAT bad!!! Expecting the grandies soon so better tidy up!! Vonny

Afternoon everyone Have been to the markets this morning and bought veges and plants. Then we took a picnic lunch and a blanket and sat in the park listening to the Toowoomba Folk Club concert. Most enjoyable. Have had a text message from darling daughter at 'Big Day Out' at the Gold Coast saying she is having a wonderful time so that put my mind at rest. It must be so hot out there in the open air but she has lots of sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses and plenty of water so there's not much more she can do. She'll be home from the coast about 12.30 tonight I guess. Did I tell you we saw The Queen last night at the movies? Very entertaining. Yvette- so glad to see you back - missed ya. (((mwah)))) Lara - you poor sweetheart. Now be a good girl and do your detox so that you're OK for Mudgee. Lotsa hugs - must be wretched to go through. Vonny - congrats on the successful launch of the boat. Waiting for pics. Mary - so glad you and John had a lovely evening. Looking forward to those pics too. Laurie - hope TLR's office is getting back to normal - you've certainly put in some hard yards there. The Queen will be off at Monrville drinking coffee. I told her to have a half strength one for me .......... and pigs might fly!!!! Hello Ducks - you are on a promise my girl. Otherwise I will have to set Princess Lew onto you and that would not be pleasant! To all the hot bods - well you know what I mean - hot bods who are hot as well - veg out for the afternoon. I am gong to lie back in the lazyboy with my feet up and the airconditioning turned up and watch the cricket. A query for those more clever at FH than I am. I know Chris's Irish great grandmother came to Adelaide from Plymouth on the Hydrabad arriving in Adelaide 15th February, 1878. She came without any family but someone told me that I might be able to tell from the passenger list and ship log if she came with a lot of other single women and whether she was an assisted passage. Can anyone enlighten me? Have a great afternoon everyone Love Anna

Hello to all just a short note as pretty crook the DR has put me on some stuff that you don't eat at all and I am suffering terribly Cass tells me with being detoxed no other food except green veges with olive oil and with no coffee at all just water or no calorie drinks and 2 litres of water or more and this is for 12 weeks as I have to lose half my body weight omg and I feel like death but hopefully it will get better .Mike is home and Josh has been nursing both of us although I am doing a HRH thing with being on the throne half the day and flopping on the bed for the other half so weak ,its all I can do to watch the tennis not even being bothered so you now know how crook I am havn't even been reading sorry just caught up now love to all not well and will be back soon I hope Love Lara

hi ya, I'm not melting. there's a feisty breeze happening here. i've been a bit of a misery guts during the week but last night went to a wedding, which was pretty nice. fabulous company, food and wine. speaking of which, my friend said she had bought some of that strawberry lizard at 'cellarbrations' - single bottle purchase. I've got a pile of stuff to catch up on, but I really don't care if it gets done or not. groceries are necessary however, so maybe a trip to the shops. love from Yvette ( ps thanks for the lov 'n' hugs)

Hi Tony and other lovely Wattlers who are not melting in the heat! Yes Tony, I actually stayed up and watched the tennis as it was way too hot in the house, so had the telly set up in our outdoor area. What a match that was (and I'm not even a tennis fan). Too hot again today in house (fibro cottage, zilch air con, temps get to about 55 - no joke) so we are off to the movies at the Dendy to see either The Queen, Volver, or Marie Antoinette. My choice of movies today!! Have a great day and pop in again later Lyn

The good boat cormorant is afloat - very beautifully restored and those rivits Vonny put in made sure it was very waterproof - she makes a mean 1 st mate taking the tiller as John kindly took us for a ride - Rob and Vonny were a little wet as we rode the wave, and we surfed at one stage. great fun Thanks for sharing with us John and Vonny - we really enjoyed it Photos will come later ~~~~~~~~~~~to all and ((()) for those who need them JA
