Send me a copy of the Will, Laurie. Remember I was the clown in the office that had to read all the Old System Title documents! I'll see what I can do. I transcribed one for my family dated 1824, so I'll have a go if you like. Lew Lew xxx

Nothing wrong with a bit of Elvis, Tony. Are you coming to the Mudgee Meet? Barb and I can blast the place apart with Elvis :-)))) xxx Lew Lew

You are sooooooooooo funny Tony - I kin jes imagine Barb singing away and you trying to type! .. (and think at the same time) You are giving me much needed confidence - that spring has almost sprung. .. Actually it is a lovely warm day here up in the Mountins, but who knows how long it will last :( Off I go to tidy up again! Jood

Okay

When Sarah was born ( youngest )...the first words Barb taught her was ELVIS...lol The Mudgee meet: Sorry mate......work commitments. Tony Oz......:>)))

Arvo all, See what you mean about the 5-letter thread :) Ok Jood - Gwenda and I will work on meeting you at Central at 11am and then all go to the Casino together. Good plan. Eldest daughter has invited us over for tea tonight - that's three evening meals out in a row!!! Got to fix lunch, so catch you later, ~~~~~~~~~~~Vonny

Good Afternoon Wattlers, Another nice day here, infact it's getting warm. Laurie, my thoughts are with you and your friends. A hard decision but dare I say the best. I would have been my choice had I been in Denny's place. Shazz, double check which train station to get out at and also make sure there are no train works going on. LOL May I suggest you meet at the Casino to avoid any confusions. Does the casino in Sydney have a similar restuarant to the ones here. Water tanks, I don't know why we are allowed to drink tank water but you can't if you have town water laid on. We have had tanks at every home we have lived in except if we have rented, and much prefer the tank water. When we had the cafe the council made us clorinate the water and it was tested regularly, but we all complained that it was poison. I also would have voted yes to the treated water. It would have been put in the dams and I am guessing that it would be better quality than the dam water. Then it is treated before being sent to the homes. Don't forget the water in the dams has come from the hills and carried all the animal droppings and worse. My soap box for today. Lew I am disappointed, you could have a diet meal out. I am going to start when i have got rid of all the rubbish in the fridge. Don't need anything in there to tempt me. I am sorry to say that Sophie hasn't made any improvement. She is eating, thanks for the raw chicken tip Lew, she loves it, and I have cooked her some fish we she enjoyed. I managed to get the medicine down her this morning so we hope to see some improvement tomorrow, if not it will be another trip to the vet Hi Trifley, back to yourself I see, thats good news. You wouldn't want to go to Egypt just now would you? I would want to wait for peace in the area. Well, hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend Luv SuzyQ

Its ok Suzy - Shaz is coming with Rob (for that very reason lol) - and she knows where we met last time - I will be in touch with her by mobile phone every step of the way! pmsl Jood <sorry Shaz>

Hi Jood, It wasn't Shaz's fault in Brisbane. We were given the wrong station, thats why we got mixed up. SuzyQ

Suzy (grinning like a cheshire cat) - you should have seen the shmozzle we had getting Shaz to Central station though! (sorry Shaz, you know we luv you) That's wot I was referring to! Jood

Jood, I guessed that was what you was talking about. But I can't possibly have been as bad as our c***k up at Brisbane. Not only were we given the wrong station, there were some line repairs and we had to keep changing trains. No one at the stations seemed to know what the other one was doing. On our way home, Shaz and Rob and nev and myself were told we had to get on differnet trains aastheirs was straight through. The one we took stopped at every station and took forever. Shaz told me that we could have got on their train as it did stop at our station. All that and rain too. SuzyQ

Suzy, Im just hoping they dont decide to do track work on the line on that Saturday. .. They provide buses instead. .. I have to say tho that the buses are fast, but they tend to wait for several trains before they move. .. I will drive my car to another station to bypass the bus if thats the case. ..Fortunately the City Rail people email me every week to tell me where the track work is being done that weekend. I have just rung Shaz to tell her I was rubbishing her .. Poor thing isn't well, but I hope she gets better soon. Jood

To all others coming by train - if you'd like to let me know which line you are travelling on, I'll tell you if there is any track work being done on it that day. Jood
