Morning all . . Slow start to the day for me . . . wonder why ??? Oh I remember . . . I invented the 'Trifarooni' last night - just the right blend of Rosso and Dry Vermouth ! Lew, the Accent is small, and the one I have is the hatchback, wouldn't even try and put anyone on the back seat (in fact it is folded down all of the time). But it is great for what it was intended for - just me!! Most of the klms I have done were going back and forth to Wyalong & Forbes before Dad died, and they were very comfortable trips. When I do use it (I have public transport at the front door - so why pay for parking) it is ideal for zipping through the city traffic. Just got off the phone to Lara - she like the rest of us is elated at the good path results for Trifley. her words were something like 'Oh thank goodness every minute of every day I have been thinking about her'. She said love you's all and be with you tomorrow! Your trip is sounding better every day Wilson - enjoy !! The lovely Ray has me working (he'll be sorry when he gets the bill) - I have to try and reinvent a format for his barcodes and label program. Silly thing came with a User Manual that is about as much use as a diet in a chocolate factory. I will win though (even if I do have to ring the sons a zillion times) !!! I'm back off out to Westmead shortly - 2nd day with no meds for Den, and no reactions - There is another conference at 2pm. Dad asked the Dr to try and let it all just happen not ask him to turn off the machines, because he didn't think he could live with that, but I think he may have got past that now. Den would hate to be how she is - she has had the conversation with several people on her wishes not to be on life support - even as recently as four weeks ago when she had a little womens op. The sun is streaming in my window - its lovely . . . there are three giraffes with heads in the air, and a few little boats out there fishing (the boats aren't fishing - the peeps in the boats are!) . . . much nicer than the grey days we have had. Even my washing was dry in no time at all . . . no dryer today! Have a lovely Waffling day, and I will catch up with you mad lot later cheers luv Laurie

Dearest Laurie, I just hope that if there is no solution to save your friend, that she doesn't linger on long. I know that may sound awful, but it's the best for everyone concerned. Well, on your recommendation, Laurie, I have just tested out the Accent. Compared to the Astra, Lancer and Pulsar, I found it very roomy. Unfortunately, they only had the 2 door at the moment, but have ordered me in a Silver 4 door. I can then test drive it and, if I like it, I can have that one. The car dealer is a former client, but he and his wife have become friends. In fact, they are having dinner at our place Thursday week, so I'm sure I'm going to get a very good deal, lol. Off to have some lunch. Lew Lew xxx

Afternoon everyone, At 'work' at the moment and no-one around so just spent some time catching up reading. Laurie, what a hard decision to make. I know that several of my kids have made the same choice but now they are married it will be their spouses who are asked that question. ((((Hugs for you)))) Looking forward to Lara being back and Trifley on deck. Still thinking about the story - maybe wait till we are all back together again. I think Lew Lew, Rebs, Laurie and Tony are the best story tellers! Going to play with words and then back to work :) ~~~Vonny

I no tell stories Vonny! You're thinking of my other personality, Crewella. She's a big story (fib) teller!!!! Lew Lew - nice girl

Hellooo Wattlers, Just dropping by briefly, am doing taxes, its cold and wet here in Albury, feeling wintry. Fabtastic news Trifley, I've been thinking of you a lot, so wonderful that you can go home now with Nefer to take care of your every need while you rest up ready to face the treatment required, behave like the Queen you are now darling, and despatch the knaves to do your command!! Oh, Laurie, how awful about Den, she is also in my thoughts and I'm sending prayers of strength for all the folks who have to make decisions around her. A very difficult time. Anna I wish Toowoomba well next weekend with your water Poll, I also admired your lady Mayor on 60 minutes! Like you, I am not afraid of treated water. People have an odd idea of the purity of rainwater and groundwater. Vonny - nice boat, what a handywoman you are ! Won't it be fun to launch her - do you have a name picked out lol ? I am having a busy week Eisteddfodding - DD14 doing her drama piece on Thursday night but she has volunteered as well and spent all day being Stage Manager on Sunday, and Announcer at the Speech and Drama last night. She will want to go back tonight I'm sure. I love it too, it's wonderful to see the kids grow up each year and our Drama community is very friendly, they rehearse each other, and cheer each other on, learning to be a great audience as well as performing. ~~~~~ to everyone , my potato topped pie is finished so I'd better get back to the books (I'm up to doing vehicle expenses) Hz in Albury

So you want a story told!

I've got a good one!

It's about how to turn spotty dogs into coats, HHHEEEEEE

Good Morning to you all....What a lovely day here some rain but thats okay coz I have my house back....Yes the cherubs have gone back to school today...Yeahhhhhhhhh...Hope everyone is having a great day..! Miss them really.. Janet xxx

It wasn't me! I didn't do it!! I'm innocent, I tell you, innocent. :-( Lew Lew

Crewella, What is that innovative lounge covering you have?? Looks black and white and spotty to me!

well at least it wasnt the cat....lol how is everyone today? I'm back in the office, not a bad day out but warmer in here. By tomorrow night we should all be back together again with Lara on line and our Queen home. New car sounds good Lew,silver is a great colour. Believe Lew has spotted pjs too...lol Back to the grind Flakey

Yes, Vonny, I thought you'd be impressed with the lounge covering, very comfortable. And, of course, Flakey the pj's are definitely spotted! pmsl. Crewella, heeeeeeeee heeeeeee

So Crew, is there any reason why Jack is waaaay in the background of photos???lol

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO

~~~~~~HI~~~~~~~Flutters

Yes, Flakey! There is. The dog is not stupid!!! Crew x

Hi Wattlers, Such good news Trifley, you will be up and running about in no time. These days I seem to be very out of step with everyone. Were do you all go to in the afternoons? Laurie, the news is very sad about your friend. I have had this conversation with Neville, and I wouldn't want to be kept alive, but I am sure that doesn't make it any easier for the family. I pray that Denny hasn't suffered too much and will soon be at peace. Lew, Neville say's he was one of the Idle poor. LOL My dad has just bought a Hyundai Getz. Don't you get 10,000 kl worth of petrol if you buy a Hyundai just now? Two birthday girls. Have a lovely day Tamika and honey Rum I am sure your celebrations will be memorable, especially in Blackpool. I have had some wonderful times there. Don't forget the 'Kiss me Quick' hat. LOL Do they still have the illumunations. I loved going to them. I watched Calender Girls the other night. It was lovely to see all the areas that I had grown up in. The Yorkshire Dales are one of Englands great beauty spots. Two weeks to moving day Mary, are you all ready? Jill, it must have been awful seeing that accident, it looked dreadful on TV Does anyone watch It Takes Two? I was sorry to see Troy and Katie go. I was hoping that it would be Guy and Sarah. Sorry but I don't like Guy's type of singing. I hope that Erika and David win. Well, I am going now maybe I will get on one day when there are more of you about Luv SuzyQ

Hiya SuzyQ and All. Have just spoken with the Queen and she definitely needs to go home. Not only is she bored, but she's also caught a cold! Bloody hospitals. Worst place to be when you're sick, lol. Yes, Suzy, you're right about the petrol, so the deal is looking good. Can't wait to test drive. Tell Neville that we are the idle poor self unfunded retirees, lol. Lew Lew xxx

Hi Lew, I just knew that you would be lurking some where
