Good Morning Everyone, I hope i find you all well. I am coming out to Australlia for the very first time in 2 weeks.....and oh boy am i looking forwards to it. I know its your winter ...but it will be a welcomed change from the heat we are having at the mo............we are not used to it being so hot~somedays well in the 30s. Lucky i work in an air-conned Pharmacy. I am coming out with my hubbie and daughter and will be staying in Mandurah.Perth. Thank you to the peeps that have given me info on that area. Take Care. R.B.xx

Ooooh Raggy Bear, I know Mandurah well, I am Perth born and bred, but live in Sydney now. How long are you staying there and will you be travelling around? I hope its not too cold and wet for you. Jood

Just racing thru - the natives are hungry so I'd better feed them Lew - Tony Christie sang Yellow River Lara - Lovely to see you. Will catch up later Gwenda

I got two yellow songs for ya Lew, but I dont know all the words - one is 'Goodbye little yellow bird' 'n the uvva one is in part 'those lazy hazy crazy days of summmmmm-er' Anyway I gotta question for someone. I heard that 'Memoirs of a Geisha' was going to be on TV this week. I dont have a program, so could some kind person tell me when and what channel. Knowing my luck it will be on Fox TV which I dont have :( Jood

Here ya go Jood artist: nat king cole -peak billboard position # 6 in 1963 -words by charles tobias and music by hans carste Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Those days of soda and pretzels and beer Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer Just fill your basket full of sandwiches and weenies Then lock the house up, now youre set And on the beach youll see the girls in their bikinis As cute as ever but they never get em wet Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Those days of soda and pretzels and beer Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Youll wish that summer could always be here Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Those days of soda and pretzels and beer Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer Dont hafta tell a girl and fella about a drive-in Or some romantic moon it seems Right from the moment that those lovers start arrivin Youll see more kissin <wolf whistle> in the cars than on the screen Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Those days of soda and pretzels and beer Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Youll wish that summer could always be here Youll wish that summer could always be here Youll wish that summer could always be here I remember this one

Yeah I like it too Gwenda. Now a got a question for you pc gurus among us. I got a new wireless mousey - and it jumps all over the place even when I am pointing at a certain thing. .. How can I stop this?????? Soooo frustrating. Does it operate better on wood, a mat or white paper, all of which I've tried and no different. Jood

Party Time. Here is my contribution Under The Wattle ............................ Why should not Wattle do For me Misltletoe Asked one----they were but two Where Wattles Grow. He was her lover, too Who urged her so Why should not Wattle do For Mistletoe Rose-cheek rosier grew Rose lips breathed low Since it is here, and you I hardley know----why Wattle should not do A glass of white Lambruscia for me and maybe some dip, some cashew nuts will do nicely thanks cheers. Sandra in the Gong

I'm hopeless with words to songs, I can only really remember the drovers dream , but I found this lovely poem The Wattle Tree Winter is not yet gone - but now The birds are carolling from the bough. And the mist has rolled away Leaving more beautiful the day. The sun is out - O come with me To look upon the wattle tree! Let misers hoard and hide their gold; Here there is treasure-trove untold, In yellow blossom, mass on mass Spread out for wayfarers who pass With hearts to feel, and eyes to see How lovely is the wattle tree. O strange, O magical! to forget For a moment care and fret, Whilst the next spirit, like a cup Drained of delight, again fills up And overflows with ecstasy Before the miracle of the tree. And rich and poor, who pause to bless The shining tree in thankfulness, Are bound in fellowship indeed. What matter politics or creed, Or class or colour? surely he Loves mankind who loves a Tree! Towards illimitable skies From the earth the trees arise: Givers of Joy, their gold and green Against the blue of Heaven is seen. A symbol of man's destiny Is the blossoming the wattle tree. Winter is not yet gone - but now The birds are carolling from the bough. And the mist has rolled away Leaving more beautiful the day. The sun is out - O come with me To look upon the wattle tree! Dora Wilcox now, how lovely and also completely relevant yvette xx

Laurie, loved Cherry's poem. It wasn't until today when I passed it, that I remembered we have a Wattle Avenue here on Bribie. Does that count? Anna, the 7.30 report just had something on Toowoomba's water dilema. Looks like Bris may also get treated sewage water added to the dam. Will be back later when I catch up on all the waffling. Pam

This one? Christie Lyrics - Yellow River Lyrics So long boy you can take my place, got my papers I've got my pay So pack my bags and I'll be on my way to yellow river Put my guns down the war is won Fill my glass high the time has come I'm going back to the place that I love yellow river Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love Got no time for explanation got no time to lose Tomorrow night you'll find me Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river Cannon fire lingers in my mind I'm so glad that I'm still alive And I've been gone for such a long time from yellow river I remember the nights were cool I can still see the water pool And I remember the girl that I knew from yellow river Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love Got no time for explanation got no time to lose Tomorrow night you'll find me Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it's the place I love
