I must admit, it was SusyQ's idea to have a Tattslotto pool, so when we win, Susy was the one with the idea. And when we lose, Susy was also the one.....:>)). Joodle. I like ya name mate. Only a couple of months to go, an we are off to Scotland and London. It should be summer in the U.K by then, so hope mother England turns up the heat. Laurie must be in England somewhere by now, and hope she is finding lots of dead people. Lara. Hope you and Wilson have a great day at the Geno fair. If your going to Eddington, hope you find some of those O'day/O'Dea/Day.....Ward.......Kavanaugh/Cavanagh/Kavanagh...Byrne's/Birns.......lot. They all seem to be so close, i wouldnt be suprised if there all buried in the one coffin mate...lol Just a thought, and if you get the oppotunity ....see if there were two Henry Ward's there. One married to a Byrne...and one married to a Kavanaugh,( at the same time ) it may answer a few questions......you may have to do a DNA on them......:>)) The ItalianTomatoGarden An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his tomato garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament. Dear Vincent, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my tomato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me. Love Dad A few days later he received a letter from his son. Dear Dad, Not for nothing, but don't dig up that garden. That's where I buried the BODIES. Love Vinnie At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son. Dear Dad, Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances. Love Vinnie Have a great day everyone. Tony Oz.....:>))

ooh Lew Lew you clever girl! I would love 2 decoders, but other half is deaf on the subject. I love the lifestyle channel but swap your OH's boxing for anything to do with cars and thats our household. Mind you youngest son always says if there is s**t on tv Ken will find it - lol. The next 6 months with b****y football ( apologies to all the footie nuts), v8 supercars and the formula one - my only salvation will be talking to 'sane'? gene people on this thread. lol By the way Ms BM its jude 2 that is doing all the gallivanting about the planet. lol YV girl ( jude 3)

Good morning Miss YV and Miss BM. Love the new names. Yes, Tony will probably have our guts for garters, but it'll keep him on his toes!! lol. Sorry to hear about the blasted alarm YV. Girl has to have her beauty sleep. Definitely a nanna nap for you this arvo! Hope the flight is fun and the skys are clear for you. Don't worry about the pay tv, we're sooooo pretentious, we've got two decoders, so hubby can watch his boxing, while I can over indulge in the Lifestyle channel! Over the top, I know, but what the heck. Nothing but the best for those willing to attend the Mudgee Meet!! BM, you will be the hit of the Mountains with your new Title. I might even has sashes made for the Mudgee Meet, now that would be fun. Chat again soon Miss Mudgee xxx

Good Morning Miss Mudgee, and Ms Blue Mountains( oops thats if you keep it Jood) , as you seem to be to only ones around - Love the new names. I have changed mine as you can see - now awaiting responses! lol. Less like a valley girl (in reference to USA) your're ever gonna see. lol New names are going to play havoc with the Wattlelotto list - Tony will be tearing his hair out! Not feeling happy this morning - we have been having problems with alarm at work - always seems to go off between 1- 4 am with too much regularity. Got service man in yesterday - assured us all fixed. 1.30am this morning phone goes - yep alarm has gone off. I'm not a happy vegemite when my beauty sleep has been interrupted. And I wanted to look my best tonight for the Goney Bird flight - looks like I'll have to have a nana nap this arvo. lol. Mind you I think it will take a bit more than that. Does anyone know of a mirror that will make me appear like Elle or Megan Gale? lol. Someone out there could make a fortune just think how many of us would buy one. Another beautiful day in Melbourne - all the tourists and atheletes in Melb don't know how lucky they have been with the weather, but we will continue to enjoy while we have got it. Mind you some of that Qld rain wouldn't go amiss, it can wait until next Wednesday though, when I'm back at work. Lew you wont want to leave home ever again - the house sounds wonderful. Mind you, can you get different channels around the house on pay tv or do you have to watch the same one as the 'master of the remote' is watching? Well had better do some work, thats why I supposed to be here. catch you later YV girl ( jude 3)

Oh gawd Lew Lew - imagine me as Miss Blue Mountains at my age !!!! I'd be the laughing stock of the community! But then Im Jood - (to you lot) - not Jude like them others! Hennyway - I'll leave it to you others - if ya want me to change my name, I will - but it better be good! Jood (temporarily)

Mmmm, I see, Tony and the missing ice cream. I hope this is not an indication of things to come, lol. Right, who's in Melbourne and can go and stand guard at Tony's front door tonight, just in case! And, in case you've forgotten, my hubby is a Solicitor and we can always do a Slater & Gordon (class action). God, could you imagine all of us in Court! The poor judge!!!!! LOL Pleased to hear your gas problem has been sorted, Julie, pmsl. Cordial and milk Jude? Blahhhhhh. No wonder you were sick!!! Hope you and Wilson have fun tomorrow. G'day to Jude, Jude, Jood, Tassy Sue, SuzyQ. Will you guys please get separate names! I know, lets have a competition and rename all the Wattlers and give them special Australian Names. I'll be Miss Mudgee (don't forget I've got pretentions to live up to, lol), I want the sash and crown and all, pmsl. Now, who's next? Well must away. Local council elections on today (oh yipee!!!!!! NOT). *waves with dignity to the left, then right - exits with aplomb* Miss Mudgee xxx

OMG Julie Cat - after all that????? They sure stuff you around dont they? I'm sitting here with one eye open thinking - will I or won't I - go back to bed. At 6:34am it is stilllllll so dark. Im told daylight saving wont finish till next week because of the games. I presume its true. It almost feels like the middle of the night. Jude 3 Melb - do let us know how your trip goes in HK. Well that's it - Im going back to bed. By the way, you can take me off the sick list - I shook my cold off 2 days ago - thanks. It really only lasted the one day - so I'm very lucky. Jood

Tony PMSL Thanks for the offer but he's been now, took him all of five minutes to ascertain that the meter did not need replacing lol. Juliexx

Evening Wofflers. was just sitting on the decking having a coldie, and looking up at the stars. Beautiful night here in Vic. Julie cat. Would it be quicker for me to nick round and have a look at your Gas problem......I mean i only live 16 Thousand km's away and could possibly be there before the Gas man turns up......just let me know mate....no problem at all for me.....:>)) Hi Mary. Nice to see you home safe and sound. Funny how you leave the fridge door open when you go on holidays, and its shut when you arrive home, and theres mold everywhere. No the feeling only to well. SusyQ. Thanks....my Mum is doing quite well.....Glad you trust me mate. I always remember telling my kids when they were young, that you have to earn trust. Although........i must admit, at a Ice-cream shop once...i bought two of those Dairy Whip ice-creams for me and Barb ( the ones dipped in chocolate...and they shove a flake ckocky bar in the middle of it )......Well i had eaten mine.........and you see ( gulp )...Barb had handed hers to me......coz she was looking at some clothes.....and it was just looking up at me ( the ice-cream..that is )...and it started to melt, and drip down my hands....and well....i....u.... see it was like this.......and it kinda just disappeared!!!!!..... ( poof..) in thin air....:>)))) Hi Chris in NZ. I do remember you from another thread. Hope you are well. Jude in Melb. I think you should change your name mate, cos your never in Melb. long enough to be called Jude in Melb. Maybe it should be 'Jude was in Melb but now in Australia or O/seas'...lol Have a great trip to Hong Kong...unless your already there????? Lew....lol..No not a Solicitor mate, but Barb and i have a few cousin Barristers in our Family of cousins, so if anyone ever needs one, i can recommend a couple...:>)) Well hope everyone has got there Wattlelotto ticket by now, and if you havent received it let me know. Thanks again everyone for your well wishes for my Mum. She is as tough as nails, and will most likely out live me...lol Hi to everyone else and all the sickies. Tony Oz..:>))

Night Joodles :-) In answer to your ?, no he hasn't come yet and has until 8pm so with my luck that'll be either 7:59 or he won't bother turning up :-(

Hello Wafflers – I mean Wattlers Welcome home again Mary. Im all for the lunch date when Her Majesty arrives home. I don’t know the exact date. Her sister said 30th March, but I have an idea it’s a few days into April. Julie Cat – did the aforementioned gas man arrive? I know the feeling. We are happy to stay home all day, but if its an enforced stay, we feel we MUST get out!!! Contrary aren’t we? Its like having to fast for a blood test, we can eat brekky any time, but if they say not till after the blood test – that is far too late !!! Hi Kiwi Chris, nice to meet you. Lew Lew – haven’t you met our Mary yet? She’s a lovely warm lady, always concerned for others. Wilson & Lara – have a great sleuthing day on Sunday – and don’t dare touch that gold in the river, you hear? Did I miss something ? What did you find to fix up the hernia Jude 3?????? What a busy time you have had flying here and there and now to HK. Lauries plastic is worn out – I hope yours isn’t. I’m off to bed now, see y’all later. Jood

Wattlers..........I forgot to gloat, thanks to Sue for reminding me. The mighty Cats won the final ..............look out its a sign of things to come. Sue, there are no other cars but FORD,well according to my hubby anyway, unless you count BMW....lol Jude2

Susan when the putor says form an association in the ? file to open this email I just forward it to myself and some times you can then open it or if not then go to file and click on 'save as' then give it a name if not the name you want and click ok then go to documents where it will be and right click and click on open and should do it then if not sometimes if you click on the subject in the email and if doesnt open click on subject again when letter comes up unopened and if none of this works sorry can't help. See Joodles answer if they have pps on the attachment and she will tell you how to download free program so as you can open them. hello jude 3 glad you found something to fix up the hernia .

Hello Kiwi Chris and welcome please drop in more often you are very welcome as are any other Kiwis who would like to say hello Hello Julie Cat glad your exams are over do hope you have archieved what you set out to all the best Anna same thing happened to me yesterday I could have screamed as not the fastest typist as only starting typing in fact only had a look at a keyboard for the first time five years ago when started trying to learn putor and still can't just type and not look at the keys so consquently lots of spelling mistakes which aren't really spelling mistakes as such but actually typing errors , so please forgive when I don't spell properly folks , funny isnt it when something someone says brings back an incedant from when you were kids I remember when mum and dad went tsomewher and my girlfrien and I she was older made a drink with cordial and milk and of course it curdled and we wasted a pint of milk and whole bottle of cordial and we copped it too as we had drunk some too and were awfully sick. Yes also you are right he about Peter Cosgrove had the pleasure of being at a Vietnam Vets reunion in Denilaquin that he was speaking at and he is a fabulous bloke and as you say a born leader and has a great wife too will say bye for now and talk to you all soon love Lara

Hi Wattlers Jude, Hello Congrats on Geelong winning the pre season finals, Now will they do as good as Carlton did last year LOL. Sorry I just can help myself sometimes. You mentioned that hubby has gone to watch the race cars in Adelaide, I hope he is going to go for Fords? Go Lowndes!!!! Christine Hello, welcome back to our friendly thread, hope to see you again soon. Mary nice to see you back, I have a new mike so hopefully we will be able to speak one night, or day. At the moment our house is full and noisy, David’s 3 are going back to Melb tomorrow afternoon, so we will get back to usual then. Heard there is threatening strikes at Easter time with Qantas, hope it doesn’t boil over to Virgin as we are flying to Melb and back at Easter, typical to have a strike on the holidays though. Well I have had my 5 minutes on the puta, better get of and let the kids back on, funny though, they always seem to be on their for an hour if not more. Catch you all later. Cheers Sue

Hi everyone :-) Jude in Melbourne enjoy your family meet/shooping trip. Shazz respite??? I've now got to find the house under all the junk that's overtaken it and finish off some decorating lol Lara and Wilson enjoy yourselves on Sunday Tony Melbourne thingy sounds really good. Hope your mum is ok. Jude3 whatever that oestopath did, glad it seems to be working Lew Lew house sounds fantastic Trifley glad reports were benign and good luck to Mark in the rally. Chris and Mary Hi............don't think we've 'met'..............not been on this thread long, although after having read through it sometimes I feel like I've been here a lifetime pmsl Well I've got the day off today but can't go anywhere cos I have to wait in for the man to come and check and possibly replace the gas meter. They sent me a letter to say they would come anytime between 8am and 8pm. With my luck they won't bother coming at all. Bright side I can't go out and spend any money which my bank manager will be glad of lol *waves to everyone* Juliexx

Good for you, Trifely. We like things to be benign, well mostly anyway, lol. Hugs for you, Lew Lew xxx
