They cant be comming back so soon as Joy said they were leaving...Have they been to Paris yet..Cant go to London and not go to Paris..can you..or can you..LOL We are not doing to well with our lotto,, never mind we are saving up for the big one...I havent got the time to go to London at the moment so I am quite happy for it to be a little later than sooner.. Tomorrow we start to pack and sort out what we want to take..I just cant believe that it has come round to this at last as I thought it would take ages to sell the house but it is here and anyone who has a spare moment can come over and help..No excuses now.. just because you all live over the borders is no excuse...just buy a plane ticket...do I hear mumbling...????? Well I am off to bed so see ya in the mornin..... Love Maryxxxxx |

Mary - Tony and Barb went to Scotland, then Paris, then London. They fly from London to Singapore about 9pm tonight, I think Tony said. |

Oowh Mary you beat me too it I was going to say if you want to buy the plane tickets we would come over pmsl. While I am thinking of it I was talking to Sylvia from WA the other nigfht and she asked me to say hello to you for her. Tony and Barb have already been to Paris, I think it could have been while you was in Canberra as Tony left a post about being there. Cheers Sue |

Have another wine Jood, but I know what you mean. Have spent quite a bit of time with a friend who lives near Kalbar (Qld). Aboriginal meaning for Kalbar is place of stars. Just the most amazing place, sitting around the camp fire. Pam |

Been everywhere Pam, all over Queensland, lovely place (the FNQ especially), Simpson Desert, Stony Desert, Canning Stock Routes, and the other general places, and you just cant beat a campfire out in the open with a drink in your hand and good company. I had some sherry earlier thanks Pam, probably off to bed shortly to read. Jood |

Good evening Wafflers We didn't go far this weekend, but have had a busy one, too many other things to do when Ray is home on a weekend for me to go online! We went shopping on Saturday, and ended up with a new machine to blast my music on! Neighbours will know all about it tomorrow! What we really went looking for was a wireless keyboard and mouse for Ray's puter (Apple) - but, heck - I'll take the new music box instead! The lovely Ray helped me sort the old photos today, we have scanned and made albums for lots of different family members. Its been fun sorting them and even managed to get some really nice photos off my sisters wedding proofs of parents and gramps. Odd thing in our family, 3 of us had our photographers burnt out between getting proofs and getting our photos we had ordered. (Now we come with a warning to photographers to avoid us). We got 6 photos from our photographer before everything went up in flames! Ah well the marriage has done a bit better (wonder if that is because of or in spite of ?????) Tee hee Today was memorable by the Bay . . . I saw Vonny fly off, while on the balcony looking for her, I noticed 3 men on the beach, One was drawing something in the sand the other two were directing him from up on the bank. He drew a giant heart in the sand, in the middle he wrote Mark loves Stella! They put a cloth on the picnic table near by, then two left and the other guy sat there for a couple of hours, with a bucket of flowers - around 11.30am, Ray called out to come see what he was doing, he placed flowers around the outline of the heart and placed a big bunch of flowers on the table with some preparations for lunch. Then he lay on the slope of the bank with a camera and took footage of what happened next. The man who had written in the sand arrived with his lady , obviously it was Mark & Stella, and he got down on his knees . . I think she said Yes! The other guy left and the couple had champers and a picnic, later two car loads of I presume family arrived to see for themselves . . . much merriment !!! All the while this was happening there was amazing activity in the water - dolphins jumping everywhere - so many babies, tiny wee things throwing their entire bodies out of the water. I think the Mums and Dads were haveing a devil of a time trying to keep an eye on them! On dark the little darlings were still out there having fun! (Stella & Mark left just after lunch - I think they had plans to make!) I think I recall that Tony said they get back on Tuesday morning - but I could be wrong, glad you have been able to chat to them Joy, sadly sounds like you didn't get to meet up. Well I have an in tray that is over flowing so I will catch you all later cheers luv Laurie |

Jood. I only know Sylvia through messenger, and this site I think we got to chat to each other through another Aussie thread that used to be on this site. She had a pic of her new grandchild from Broken Hill, I had a feeling it was a child of her Son, but I might be wrong it could have been her daughter. Norman is still Norman if you know what I mean. Cheers Sue |

Sue, I have seen Sylvia on the Canada thread, and I feel soooo sorry for her with her hubby Norman - whilst I know he is very sick, he is extremely inconsiderate, and its sooo hard on her. .. She really deserves a medal You are right, it is her son, and daughter in law. .. Jood |

Jood yes it is hard sometimes we are talking and she has to go because Norman is calling out to her. I do argee although he is not well it must be very hard for her to put up with. When we was talking the other night she mentioned about the pic of her new grandchild from Broken Hill, so I am assuming her son is still there, didnt get to find out as Norman called for her and she had to go. She seems a lovely kind person. Cheers Sue |
