Dianne and Lew Lew, Go to my account details - left of screen and enter your account (hope you remember your password :) Change your first name and surname with any combination, even a * will do. Then scroll down a short way and hit save. Don't worry about middle names or maiden names, they don't count. Lew lew, I'm not sure I should tell you this info :0 Vonny oh well, Devily got there first. Just a word of warning: please make sure that you always sign messages with your 'real' name so everyone knows it is you. There has been a lot of probs with 'incognito' and peeps are really 'not happy Jan' if you try to trick. Sorry, hope that didn't sound preachy. just don't want you to upset anyone accidently Vonny

Hi Wattlers Dianna firstly welcome to this thread, your bound to get a few laughs. Now you and Lew Lew wanted to know how to change your name when you leave a message well you go into My Account Details thats on the left hand side. then you have to insert your password. After you do that it will come up with my Details. You then put whatever you want a a first name instead of your real one, then you change your last name to something. and then you save changes. Hope this helps. Susan yes diet is going along fine, gradually getting used to water but still are not drinking the amount I am supposed to but I am managing about 4 glasses so I figure 4 glasses is better than nothing. Cheers Sue

Perhaps we should just call you 'Wine Trifle' Lew Lew

Maybe 'Linga longa' can tell us how to do it. There are some fascinating and clever names and it all adds some fun to the otherwise dull day. Dianne (aka Sherry soak)

Just a doggone minute! How many bottles are left??? Off to the naughty corner with you! Lew Lew (this time it wasn't me Lara - honest)

I wanna know that too Dianne! Don't wanna be known by boring old married name! Lew Lew

Just before I go....how do you put 'nick names' at the top of your messages? Mine always comes out as my full name. 10 bottles of sherry on the wall, 10 bottles of sherry If one of the bottles should happen to fall....9 bottles of sherry on the wall Dianne

Damn long way from Mudgee to the Gold Coast! Can't promise anything. Lew Lew

That thunderstorm in Mudgee...any chance of it heading to the Gold Coast? We could do with some rain. It is a b****r having to leave the computer just to water the pot plants! Dianne

An unusual gift. Wish I'd thought of that! Lew Lew

My husband's workmates think I am insane because I asked for death certificates for Christmas!

Oh welcome Dianne!! I think it would be easier to take up skydiving!!! Family tree research is not, I repeat not, for the Sane!!! Lew Lew

Hey Jude (yeah I know good song title), me thinks you have me confused with that naughty Crewella. I hear she has a thing for baileys and spotty dogs! I'm innocent, I tell you! Have managed to get home from the office in a rather round about fashion. Place is swarming with police, SES armed with chainsaws and the usual onlookers! Hubby off overseas for a month tomorrow and we're celebrating with a roast lamb dinner. Then the real trouble begins. How many shoes can one buy in a month? I'll let you know. Lew Lew

Lew Lew there's a high power than the wattlers watching you....lol Welcome to the newbys if your slightly twisted you'll fit right in Lara I received the Yarra info but wont know if I can make it til the last minute. Raining cats and dogs here now, the garden will love it. Jude3 DFO, the new one in Essendon is great, bigger than Brand Smart, daughter cost me a small fortune as usual. She just had to have a bag that was half price and some clothes, all 70% off. I did manage to buy 2 tops for me too, was really tempted with shoes but I think I would have been shot if I came home with any more so restrained myself. Besides if we get to the UK at Easter I'm sure I'll want a few things..lol Jude2

Lew Lew's been telling porky pies and got her just desserts!!! na na na -na na. (Hope you could get home ok Lew Lew) T-Total corner, atta girl Lara. :) *wonder what Lara has in her fridge? innocent expression as Vonny investigates while Lara is in naughty corner.* Three seasons in one today. Pick your weather and just wait for a while. No snow yet though. back to checking info. catch you later, Vonny

Oooo, too spooky. Massive thunderstorm just struck Mudgee and there's trees down everywhere. I'm not joking! That frightened the bejesus out of me!!!! :O(((( Lew Lew

I'm only new too Dianne, but I'm sure you'll be more than welcome. I've been a GR member for a couple of years, but have only just started chatting with this lot, who have all been very friendly. Just watch out for Rebs. She has to be sent to the naughty corner every so often, but not me 'cause I'm sweet and innocent, right Lara? *holds hands over head waiting for bolt of lightning, cringe*, Lew Lew

Hi fellow Wattlers - I live on the Gold Coast in hot & humid Queensland. Am I allowed to join? Dianne

Thanks for the welcome SuzyQ. Not too frightened of Rebs, more concerned that Lara wants to make the corner an alcohol free zone! It will only drives us underground and that's when the trouble will start!!! Lew Lew :))))) x
