General Chat

Now, SuzyQ, I think a quick stint in the Naughty Corner would be most appropriate, although I must admit to being addicted to 'The Biggest Loser' at the moment. Oh 'eck, just go to the corner for a quick Baileys & Biscuits (isn't that whatB & B stands for?) Feeling much better this afternoon. I'll try not to poison myself at dinner tonight. Perhaps I should get takeaway!!! Hope Laurie is having fun. I'm sure she flew over Mudgee on her way out. I could hear lots of chatting!! lol Lew Lew xxx

Hi Wattlers, Just wondering what Laurie might be doing now. Think she flies out of Singapore today, if I remember and on to Cologne in Germany. I went to Cologne with the school. Its a lovely city and smells of 4711 eau de cologne. We went up to the top of the cathedral and the view over the city is wonderful. Got a bit dizzy getting to the top as it is a spiral staircase. Good to have you back Wilson, glad you enjoyed your holiday. Welcome Lynn, I am in South East Queensland, behind the Gold Coast. Wonder what happened to Cilla. Just a quick note to let us all know you are okay please. Is the dress nearly finished now Rebs. Hope you send a photo when it is finished. What happens when the girls out grow the dress's? Can you sell them? Now girls and Tony, (What would we do with out our Tony ), I have a deep dark secret and I feel I now know you all well enough to reveal it to you. Other friends I have told have surprised me by having the same secret, so I thought I would check it out with you. Now I will understand if you laugh, but I just can't help myself. Every afternoon, at 4.30pm I have an overwhelming desire to watch channel ten. There I said it, yes Wattlers, I am a secret viewer of the Bold and The Beautiful. Did I just hear a huge chuckle throughout Australia. I feel I have just had a load lifted from my shoulders and I can now show my true self to you. I hope that you will all still talk to me and please don't send me to the naughty corner, I might have to miss an episode and then how would I catch up. LOL I will now slink off to do some dreaded ironing and will check in later to see if you are all avoiding me SuzyQ ( the B & B Fan )

Afternoon Wattlers Been busy this morning with walking, going to the city to do a couple of things, then grocery shopping, time has gone no where. So I thought I had better pop in to say hi and check up on everyone. We are probably lucky that we dont have sizzers here, we used to have 2 one in the North and one down south but they closed up and left, dont know why as they was always busy. Then the scare in Preston Vic. with the air conditioners, where the elderly man died, cant for the life of me think what it is called, having one of those CRAFT moments, Also poor Lew poisoning herself, wonder what she would do to her enemies lol. We have got Dannielles birthday tomorrow she will be 12 years old, and thinks she is older like most children these days. I won a couple of tickets on the radio the other day and so they are going to a concert called MS Fest, it is for raising money for MS. I found out after I got the tickets that it doesnt finish til midnight, it starts at noon. I informed the girls that I didnt think they should be there til the end on their own. Tamika, my other girl is 14, they didnt like the idea much but thats life. Looking forward to Meeting Jude 2 next week. Ooh that will make 2 that I have met :-) I just heard the news that poor Thorpe may not get to the games with this illness he has, I hope he isnt the 'Tender' in the Naughty corner, with all the goings on with you naughty girls pmsl. I nearly forgot to mention we are in P.B. mode over here at the moment ........ Political B ull***t as an election is on in 2 weeks. So we have our letterboxes full of promises, promises and more promises, the radio and TV are the same, it would be alright if they kept some of the promises ha ha. Although it is the second day of Autumn the weather is still quite warm, beautiful sunny days and tems in the mid 20.s are forcast til at least Monday. I am really starting to enjoy my walks as some of the Maple leaves have already started changing colour, I love autumn colours, Browns and Golds :-))) Well with that I am going to disappear. Catch you after Sue

Lunch time all :) Crew - something you ate in the naughty corner no doubt!! lol Lynda, don't even think of being naughty that corner is disgustingly dirty! I know this is terribly obvious, but does everyone know that on General you can choose between View All Threads (default model) and View Your Threads Only? In View Your Threads, you can see every thread you have ever contributed to, but only those threads. Makes them easier to find. (but not if Lara has deleted any LOL) sorry Lara :) Just thought I might mention this incase the unthinkable happens and your Favourites folder goes missing for some reason. Beautiful day today. On the weekend I am going to Sydney to Rookwood cemetry for a 'meet the rellies' around great grandfather's grave :) Should be fun. I think hubby is coming with me - not sure. ~~~~~~~~ to all, Vonny

Poor Lew Lew, never mind hubby will be home soon and you can tell him how sick you've been. Then you can let him make up for not being here to suffer with you...lol

Yes, I know cooking is bad, so that's why I had a blasted salad!!! I can see it now 'Come One, Come All, to Lew Lew's Sizzler Salad Bar. See how many she can knock down with her special italian salad'! Welcome to Lynda and watch out for the one's who get sent to the naughty corner. lol. They've had way too much baileys and cake! Hope everybody has a great afternoon. I'm having a gentle yoghurt for lunch (and, no, I didn't prepare it myself) Lew Lew xxx

Ah, my little paranoid friend! What are you worried about, at least you didn't poison you! lol. Trying to catch up on work. Funny how nobody does it when you're away, isn't it!. Lew Lew

11.30 am and no-one around?? Has everyone slept in today or something..............or do I need to change my deodorant. : (( *no body likes me, everybody hates me, think i'll eat some woooormmmms*

You poisoned yourself!!! There has to be kind of award for that doesn't there? Poor Lew...........((((hugs)))) coming your way.

Morning All. Sorry I missed Laurie's departure. I know she'll have a wonderful time! Was laid up in bed yesterday with some kind of food poisoning - and no, we don't have a Sizzlers here! Must've been something I cooked. That'd be about right, I managed to poison myself!!! lol. Anyway feeling much better (and lighter!) today. I'll try and chat from the office. See ya and have a good one, Lew Lew xxx

Hi Rebs, Yes phantomed!! No reason that I could see except that the other Aust thread (that was also phantomed from a year ago!) was higher than us. Unfortunately, I didn't even realise till I was reading Lara's thread for the second time! pmsl - bit slow here. I actually thought it might have been one of us just making sure the Wattle thread was on top! Welcome Lynda, glad you joined us. Night all, trying to have a relatively early night. Vonny

Hiya Linda, I'm in Redcliffe. Welcome to our thread, but be warned, we don't always make sense. And we unfortunately have a couple of C*ll*ngw**d supporters too. We humour them though. lol!!! Rebs x

Hi everyone thank you for the talkback invitation. Emigrated with parents and younger brother in May 1963. Only been back for Xmas 1994 and my last grandparent just happened to pass away before I could get to see him again. I'll let you know now I'm a chatter box. I live in Mackay with my third hubby. Have three sons from first marriage, they are all grown up now. No grandkids yet but a few near misses though. I'll go for now and let someone else in. Please let me know if anyone lives in the Mackay area. Love Lynda.

Aww thanks Reb - I have the Wattle page saved - and when I open - it opens right at the latest page, so I never know what number we are up to. Hadnt heard that before - Im young and innocent hahahahaha Jood

Don't give up your day job Rudes :-ppp

Arvo Wattlers. nuther nice day in Melb. Well Laurie is probably at the airport, already checking in. They probably wont let her get through the International customs anyway,because she has a sheep in her suitcase.........SHEEP!!!! Yes............a 'Wooley Jumper'....LOL Tony Oz :>)) O'k... will go stand in the naughty corner......:>((

lol!!! who would phantom us? Joodles, phantomed is when is when someone adds a short post to bring a thread to the top of page 1, then deletes their post. No one knows who did it unless they were caught out, hence the term 'phantom nudge' Quite often some bored peep who doesn't have a life phantoms a controversial thread to stir up trouble, but I can't think why anyone would phantom us. pmsl!! Rebs x

Vonny - phantomed????? Jood
