We've had a manic day, both dogs are trying to figure out why there are so many boxes about. I've just about got the house packed up. Photos, CD's and such are well packed off. Packed all the good glass myself as I dont want it broken, the nice wine is very well protected (I want to send BC a bottle or two)... Anytime you want to come visit let me know... except for when Bilal and I are in Grenada of course...more on that later... Mx

I can just see you walking round shouting PST.. as for PMt we all suffer from it passively Check out the photos page (about 5) then you'll see some photos of the 'kids' DB's a bit quiet today.... Mxx

Just sent you an e-mail. Good to know you know where to find me honey... but does that mean I'm predictable or not???? Want to go to chat? Called you but no-response... Magi

Just a quick look in everybody yes Magi I am quiet just been having a drink in the garden with next door neighbours enjoying our nice weather it is now 1-25am lol Davex

Nite Nite Peeps...... Just got back from a visit by my sister...we watched a DVD, Billy Elliot - seen it before but think it's great! No Tele here yet, oh well only 9 months since the Hurricane...so I suppose we can't expect miracles!!! So Magi.....Grenada aye! I hear it's lovely there, very green, bit like England really - except hot! Although Dave has obviously been enjoying the weather there! Jacquie xxx

I must have jsut missed you people last night/this morning. One of these days Jacqui, one of these days...lol... Slightly cooler here this morning, which is a good thing as No 2 son has his University entrance exam today. We spoilt him a bit yesterday, pleased it's not me. Have a great day all, Mx

G'day everyone. Nice day in Old Melbourne town, Vic. 2:45 pm Sat. here on the East Coast Mornings are frosty, and lots of early morning Fog in and around the outer suburbs, but when the sun eventually arrives most days at the moment are quite pleasant. Barb came through her Hystorectomy operation O'k..and is now home resting. No work for 6 weeks ( Doctors orders ) No driving for at least a month, no stretching,no sweeping,vacumming,or lifting anything heavier than a cup of Tea. SOooooooo.....guess who's playing 'Ring for the Butler.....James' and is she lapping that up..LOL The Doctors removed 13 Cysts bunched to-gether to form the size of a small dinner plate,also removed her ovaries, and told Barb she was/had been equivelent of being 4 months Pregnant. I will be playing Nurse Tony for the next few weeks, but my lady is worth every penny of it. Have a great day everyone. Tony Oz

Morning Tony glad Barbara is getting over her operation time for a bit of mollycoddling from Uncle Tony no doubt. Take care of her she is precious.Hope all the rest of you are all keeping well speak soon. Davexx

Thanks Dave. She has a little bell by her bedside. One ring means: Get me a Cup of Tea. Two rings means: I'm hungry, get me food. Three rings means: Hurry up........LOL Tony Oz :>)) ps.I have this terrible ringing in my ears!!!

Tony so you are like Ozziemodo!! lol! Dave

Yes...LOL Goodone mate.:>))

the day is off to a good start here on the edge of the forest...feels a bit strange knowing this is our last day in Istanbul (I'll have to change my name now!). We intend to go for a last long walk, take some more photos for prosperity, collect a few pine cones (they're huge! Pretty useful too, I use them to keep the windows open...) and I'll probably get all maudlin as I really love the forest and the peace and quiet, but, hey, this is just the beginning of a new chapter in the book of life.... ...and boy am I looking forward to it! Morning Tony, we need a new waiter for the bar...lol... sounds like Barb has been giving you a lot of practice... seriously though give her our love and let her know we're thinking of her. Vickki, I'll mail you the snail mail address once we get settled, thank you so much! If you don't hear from me for a while don't panic, knowing Turk Telecom it will take me a month of Sundays to get my Turknology re-installed, I'll pop in now and then when the place is quiet (laughing at the thought of anywhere being quiet with me in charge of microphone...) have a great Sunday, loads of luv'N'stuff Magi, Bilal and the Golden Ones

Morning everybody lovely here in Manchester just watered the plants before Sun gets to warm.Hope your move goes ok Magi, not seen Jaqui about for a few days hope you are ok. my love to Barbara and keep pampering her Tony,but if you decide to pop in plenty drink here, got some nice scrumpy cider for you to try Tony.
