Morning all, So Laurie now types in French? Didn't look that much different :) Thanks for the update. Sounds sooooo nice. Lew Lew, would love to see your house. Hope we do a meet there some time! hint hint to the rest :) Must go and visit Upper Whatsit again :) Hi Julie, nice to see you so often on our thread. :) Tony, don't bet your house because I did complain about one thread a few weeks ago! It was one of those early morning ones that were SO NASTY and vitriolic. (I got home from work early one afternoon) I was hoping that it would be gone before their morning but nooo nothing happened and it stayed on and caused no end of fuss as it was meant to. The title was deliberately nasty also, not just the thread. That of course was why it was put up, but I thought if one of us complained it might disappear before doing too much damage. Oh well, I thought it was worth a try at the time. Actually, the author has since disappeared. beautiful day in the capital, I should be outside doing some gardening :0 Vonny

Julie Cat, laughing at the Rebs is not allowed this morning. I've come to the conclusion that no-one can drink like the Irish. There was this leprachaun(no, really, photos to prove it) who swallowed a pint of guinness every half an hour for the entire day. Drinking started at 11.30am when the parade fininshed. By 4 pm, he looked really out of it, and we were taking bets as to when he would keel over. 10pm and not only was he alive still, but he was singing and dancing (of sorts) balanced on a chair. And I don't know how much I drank during the day. you'd go round from group to group and if you happened to be there when they bought a round, they bought one for you as well. I think i actually bought 3 drinks for myself all day. And that was only a warm up, the real thing is next Friday. Been up since 7.30 Jood! Loading pics onto computer (so i can destroy the evidence) Oh, and I was blessed by St. Patrick....bless him.

Ooooooooooooooooh somebody's been out on the town - Im surprised you are up so early (9:43am) Rebs pms Your house sounds a dream Lew Lew - it must be such an exciting time for you. Hobbling around today, had a wart frozen off the ball of my foot - feeling a trifle sorry for myself (my excuse not to do any work) - but then I rarely do any anyway hahaha Have a great day everyone Jood

Oh, what is their problem! Small minds!!! I take a day off to shop (report follows) and I return to disappearing threads. How pathetic. Anyway, Laurie, I'm glad you love Paris. It's one of my favourites. For sheer madness, try hiring a car. I did this with 3 friends and we got stuck on a roundabout, going 'round & 'round & 'round, killing ourselves laughing with all the french drivers laughing at us! It was a hoot. Hey, wait until you see the Mona Lisa. It's so small! Sorry if I confused you Lara,but don't be surprised if the NC thread ends up deleted. Have you seen the goings on there lately? Now for the shopping. Yesterday we purchased a bedroom suite for us, one for the 2nd bedroom, a bedhead and bedside tables for the 3rd bedroom, 2 office desks, etc., with a bookcase and 2 (yes 2) bbqs and one of those outdoor gas heaters. Well, think about it, we'll need 2 bbqs if all you lot want to visit!. The house has 2 entertainment areas, one on the north side and one on the south and there is no way we can keep dragging one bbq back and forward. The man at BBQ's Galore was very, very happy and has thrown in lots of freebies. Everywhere we went, we were given really good deals. Our bed we got from Snooze is called 'Gelato' which is a suede bedhead and foot. The colour is called Storm - a dark grey, which will look fantastic against the purple wall. Everything is very modern, as our new house is construced of corrugated iron with angled roof lines. It's kind of shaped like a 'J' with the lap pool running up the middle. I promise I'll post some photos on GC shortly. Anyway, we're off to Sydney on Friday to purchase the lounge and dining room suites. God, I love spending money!!!! Pleased to see both my teams, Richmond Tigers (AFL) and Wests Tigers (NRL) doing so well this weekend. Having been born in Melbourne and growing up in Sydney, its just easy to say 'Go the Tigers'!!! Hope everybody is having a great weekend. Lew Lew xxx

G'day from Paris mates . . . . . You wouldn't read qbout it but this keyboard is different again . . . . We arrived in Paris last night; at 300klms/per/hr the train trip from Brussells was FAST - Was sorry to leave, and will certainly have Brussells on the list of places to go back to. The train trip was better service than bus class on Qantas, excellent ! The Awful tower is right out our bedroom window - only some mug went and built a high rise between us - but it's Paris, where a bottle of wine costs less than a cup of coffee, I had a lovely quiche with salad for lunch, it cost less than the cup of coffee I had after! We got the old 2 day pass on the red bus, and wandered around the city via bus all day - will line up at the Louve tomorrow, can't miss that and on Monday we will line up to get into the gallery of contemp art . . . got to see the originals if you can. (Tony will bring you home some paperwork so you can plan ahead!) We hope to get on a river cruise tomorrow evening - flash night out - thank goodness for big coats! We sat at our window earlier with a nice red, some cheese & bickies and blankets wrapped around us - very cold ! Know why the French are so slim for the most part - they drink plenty of wine and the escalators are always out of order . . . . . Best go see if the lovely Ray is ready to go walking again . . . Take care all - cheers luv Laurie

Evening All You may be all in bed by now, I usually am, but my 2 girls went to a MS Fest today, I got a phone call to pick them up early. It goes to midnight and I was going to pick them up at 10.00pm as I thought that was late enough. But they found out what a real rock concert and a mosh pit is like as they got caught in the middle of a big surge forward when one of the most popular bands came on. They had their older brother with them which I am grateful for, he met them there, and when they tried to get out of the pit area no one would move to let them out, which happens, so Antony could see that Tamika was having trouble breathing, which made him a bit mad and grabbed the girls and anyone that would not move to let them out he elbowed them out of the way. He took her to first aid to get checked and them rang me to pick them up. Tamika said she is not going to another concert and didnt know what a mosh pit was. Silly Mum warned them about everything else like not to let their bottles of cordial be in plain view of anyone so no one could put anything in their drink and not to take anything from anyone, also not to hang around the wet area, etc etc, but I didnt mention the mosh pit. Well its late and Im babbling a bit so I am going to bed. Catch you all tomorrow. Cheers Sue
