I agree with you Tony - about Leyton Spewitt (even wife and baby too) Safer to get a pie - make sure you have your VB tablet with it. You are soooooooo lucky to find someone in the family tree - I have not had one bite - I havent put my tree on GR, as Laurie did it, and she'd tell me if someone popped out. Only time I got excited, and wrote to the person, it turned out to be Laurie anyway - cheeeeeeeeeeee pmsl Off in the afternoon sun to enjoy Jood

Hi all Shazz, I came up the mountain sideways - well, you know what I mean - the road that goes from Windsor up to Springwood, lots of hairpin bends, but I am used to them now. So what DID you have for dinner ??? Let me know what Canberra is like weatherwise Shazz, as I am going down in 2 weeks - tho I guess I could ask Vonny & JA as well. I'm off to Bundanoon tomorrow morning for the Highland festival. Went last year and darn near froze, so talking lots of scarves, jackets, beanies, gloves (one of each at least !) Cold in the house today but lovely and sunshiney outside. I have actually been to excercise class again this morning (twice in two weeks) - How about that ................... don't get excited, it was only a Heart Moves class which is put on by the Heart Foundation. Me ticker is fine, but I need to do a low impact class to get fit to do proper excercise hahaha. Any excercise is better than none at all. Jude *walks off whistling cept she can't whistle .... to do some h*******k

Morning Jood!!! Girl brought me in a coffee before she left for uni this morning so I stayed in bed. She was also wearing my one and only fleecy jacket, so I assume the coffee was considered a fair swap. lol!! Gosh it's chilly here this morning. All the rain over the last couple of days has really cooled things off. Might find myself investing in a pair of fluffy slippers this year, with all the polished floors I have. No carpets to keep the tootsies warm. :-(( Lara, tried calling you twice yesterday, but the line was busy. You were either yakking or on the net. *predictable* thought for the day...........'If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.' Have a great day everyone. love Rebs xxx

And Lew lew – we know what solicitors do for lunch. We saw one having lunch (a bottle of wine and then half a bottle of wine then some food and then some coffee) – this was over about 2 hours and when we left – he was still sitting and reading the papers. Hope he didn’t have a court case that afternoon pmsl Thanks for your company Shazz – we’ll do it again soon.

Now your talking my currency Tony . . . . Ahh Roy Orbison . . . Probably already told you about my meeting with him, . . . . . . . . and him buying me a carnation . . . . - taking me for coffee, . . . . . giving me 2 special guest tickets to the show (the table by the stage) . . . .and him sing a song specially for 'A Pretty Woman he met walking down the street. . . .' Can't think about that without remembering my Mum, how she loved that night - Ray was in Vietnam so I took Mum - Down to the Chevron in Kings Cross. Being a bush bunny it was Mums first concert, I had taken her to a few Gilbert & Sullivan before that - and a couple of plays, we had such a wonderful night, of course Roy was outstanding ! Then there was a post card for Christmas. Kidding my dear old Mum didn't get some mileage out of that she was nearly as stoked as I was. Enjoy your spag bol Tony, I have a pot of lovely vege soup on the go, followed by a quiche and salad. Cheers luv Laurie

And did you know Rebs, that sitting next to the gynaecologist was another doctor whose face had turned purple, coughing and spluttering. The gynaecologist said 'Heavens, man, what's wrong with you?' The reply came back - 'I'm a proctologist....!!' boom...boom!!! Hi guys - went walking with the bushwalkers this morning and then went to the pub for a counter lunch. I'm pooped - see you all later!

This one conjured up a funny image. lol!! One of the city's top cardiac specialists died. At his funeral, his coffin was placed in front of a huge replica of a heart made of red roses. When the pastor finished the sermon, and everyone said their good-byes, the large heart opened up, the coffin rolled inside, and the heart closed again. It was a majestic tribute to the much loved cardiologist. Suddenly,one of the mourners burst into a fit of laughter. Irritated by his insensitivity, the man sitting next to him asked, 'Why are you laughing, Mister?' 'I was just thinking about my own funeral,' the man apologised.......... 'I'm a gynaecologist... ' Rebs x
