Sshhh Donna, Lew thinks she is sane,best to humour her or she starts dispensing pills...lol

Thanks for the nudge, Crew. TX

PMSL if I gave Graeme those directions he'd laugh at me! It's ok....I just got on the RACQ travel site and have all the directions. Even how to get out of our own street....lol TX

Well Trifley You just go down the road and turn the corner and then over the hill and down the bottom then over the next one and then you turn right and go up the hill and as you coming down the other side there is Canungra !!! See its easy peasy !!!!

Where the h*ll is Canungra? TX

Hi Mary....yes we are trying to catch up with SuzyQ, Laurie and whoever else of the Wattlers who might be able to meet on Tuesday 5th Sept (next week). Laurie thought a counter lunch might be good then none of us has to prepare anything. Bags NOT being designated driver!!!!! UPDATE Outpost cafe, Canungra.....Graeme and I will be there. Hi Crew...you are getting the warm weather. It's gone bl***y cold here. I don't want to go out but I've got to go to the chemist. See you all later love TX

I'm forever blowing bubbles out my snorkel . . . isn't it lubberly !!!! Great waterfall over the verandah as the gutters can't cope with the volume . . . lovin it Trifley is sane (fingers crossed behind back). . . its just the rest of us that have issues . . . . . I'm going outside for a play in a puddle . . . well a walk in the rain anyway Next tuesday 5th Sept . . . lunch at the Outpost Cafe in Canungra !!! All welcome - who can make it ????? luv Laurie

I'm baaack, Mary I'm feeling left out...pppppp Well it must really be raining up north. Our partners left this morning for a weekend on the island and should have landed at11.30 but its now 1.30 and they have been diverted to Townsville after 3 attempts to land at Hammo. They wont be happy. Jood I'll be in Geelong next wednesday, 6yr old niece is in a school concert in the morning but if you are free anytime in the arvo give me a buzz. If not dont worry we'll catch up another time. Trifley with all that rain about you should be able to get the royal barge out for a party. Flakey

Greetings Wattlers. Well I didn't get back to sleep, so might have to have a nanna nap this afternoon. Hello Sylvia and don't believe a word Trifles or Donna says. I am the only sane member of the Wattle Group, the rest are a bunch of raving lunatics. lol. Well, Spring has arrived in Mudgee. It's currently 20.5C and getting warmer. Won't be long before I'm noddling around the pool. The mind boggles!!!! I'm off to do some FH research. Seeya Lew lew xxx

It all depends on the Council. It might close the playing fields. And open them as swimming pools! I've gotta go to the chemist in a short while. I'll go past the fields and see what they look like. I think I might have to put on another layer of clothes.....it's getting cool. I'll check back later. TX

Hi Donna.....can Zack swim? I hope so 'cos it's gone from little ppping down here to BIG PPPPPPPPPPing. He might need a snorkle and fins for this game on Sunday. Hi Laurie.....isn't the rain wonderful? Didn't know Canugra had a Rissole or a pub. Didn't know canunra existed untill a while ago....pmsl. Happy about a counter lunch....no worries. Donna....change that BIG PPPing to minor flooding. Gotta go shut the windows. TX

Hello from a very damp Gold Coast. We've had a lot of rain here over the last few days. I just hope some of it is going into the dam. Hi Sylvia....I don't think I've met you before. I'm the sanest and most regal of all the Wattlers. Hang on.....just got to get my Nubian man-servent to make me a cup of coffee. Trifley X

Hello from rainy Cedar Grove . . . so lovely to listen to the rain on the roof during the night, and the frogs !!! just hope they haven't got in my plumbing again! Lots of gardening to do . . . but that can wait - the weeds will come out better after the good soaking. Sitting here thinking what will I do - I know . . . nothing !!! So thats just what I have been doing all morning just looking and enjoying being here. Just me and the spider webs !! They know when there is noone home don't they - just come in and squat! Can't expect it to be any different when you live in the bush though. The colours in the bush were amazing on the trip up - everywhere there are natives bursting into flower - just can't wait for real spring. All this lovely rain will make sure we have a beautiful bush spring. Yes Jill, I have two wonderful sons, who have grown into amazing young men and I dont mind admitting I am very proud of them . . . gives you goosies thinking about them . . . Well off to see if I can get the hot water started - it wont beat me!! luv Laurie talk later

Afternoon Wattlers, Hi Sylvia, welcome to the mad house..lol Beautiful sunny day in Melb but the forecast is for rain all weekend, it would be nice if the weather man was right for a change, my poor garden is looking really dry already. my lotto nos for sat are 16 21 31 37 40 44 6 21 24 32 42 45 16 25 30 32 34 43 4 8 18 29 33 41 4 6 10 32 33 35 15 16 23 33 39 40 4 17 31 33 35 40 12 29 30 38 42 43 3 7 14 25 38 44 7 29 30 37 38 40 6 7 9 36 37 45 6 12 13 16 30 37 good luck everyone Flakey

Afternoon Wattlers Well youngest is booked into new high school for next year. So everything is sorted out , just the last bit of the packing and organising how to get furniture from one place to another, we have got plenty of offers for help, its just do we go with a couple of trailers or hire a van incase the unmentionable happens???? it falls from the sky lol. Anway I am not sure what will happen on here tomorrow as my membership is due tomorrow. I clicked on the spot for automatic renewal on 'My Account Details' page about 3 or 4 weeks ago, however I have a little message on the top left hand side of page, just under my name and where it says Im a full member til. So I have sent GR a message asking if it will be automatically renewed or will I have to do it manually. I dont want it paid twice, I am waiting for them to reply to me so I know what to do. Not sure if they cut you off at the begining of the day or the end if you are not paid up. Has anyone else been in this situation? Ok better go and do a bit more, will pop back in after. ~~~~~~~ to everyone. P.S Hello Sylvia, you popped in while I was typing. I hope everything is going ok with you and Norman. I finally met Mary in Sydney when I went over for the meet, not sure if you have both met in person, but she is as lovely as she sounds on the puta. Please pop in when you can. Im sure we will all make you welcome, Eveyone is sooo nice here. Cheers Sue

Hello Everyone. I haven't been on this thread for ages but hope you don't mind me joining you now.I see that Mary and Sue are on here, who I already know. I hope you are all well.It is a very wet day here today in Perth, but Spring tomorrow so I am looking forward to some sunshine soon. Take care everyone, Sylvia XX

Morning all, we are having some fantastic rain at present, the good old fashioned steady stuff. our dam is full and the wild ducks are going wild with bliss, bet there will be lots of baby ducks soon. How's that face coming along Joodles, they do heal pretty quickly, Ron had five on his forehead zapped, one a really big one and they have all healed up nicely and that was just over a week ago. He's off up to Maroochydore this afternoon for a couple of days, installing a new telephone system so I shall be home alone except for the dogs of course. It's been ages since he's worked away, going to be a bit strange to have the remote control all to myself.lol Belated happy aniversary congrats to you and your husband Fluffy, mine is at the end of Sept. better start dropping hints soon I suppose, although Ron always remembers our aniversary it's birthdays he forgets the dates of. Glad you made it home okay Laurie your son sounds like a smashing boy. It's a lovely feeling of pride, when they have grown up and you think to yourself, my you've turn out well, sounds daft but you know what I mean. luv Jillx

Good morning to all, and such a lovely day too. Going shopping today for a new pair of jeans to wear on the weekend and some new sneakers. Glad you arrived safely Laurie. How much gardening did you say that you were going to do?? hee hee Yvette, riding noodles around a pool is my very favouritest exercise :) Try it Lew, it's sooooo much fun. More fun in a group though. ~~~~~~~~to all. My we all are busy bees now Spring has sprung. Did you ever wonder why we park in the driveway and drive on the Parkway??? ~~~~~~to fluffy Vonny
