I thought Ihad told you all this one my very most embarrasing moment from 1to 3 Anna good idea so here's a few to get us started 1/ Was when I took my daughter Melissa to see Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Pantomine,and after the show we were standing outside as some of the people from the show were there signing the programs Snow white signed Melissas program and the she gave it to the queen and she signed it then a boy took the program and I said I'm sorry that belongs to my little girl and he said 'Yes I was going to sign it I was Sleepy the Dwarf, OMG I wished the footpath would have swallowed me I thought he was kid trying to steal Lissa's program LOL ' 2/ was when Cassie and Josh were about 8 and 10 we were staying at the time share in Yarrawonga before we moved there and they wanted to go to the water slide over in Mulwala so as there dad was watching a movie I said I'll take you, I had bathers on and and a sun dress with shirring on the top no straps and when we got there I bought the tickets for the slide and then went to lie down on the grass on a towel, ............ what I didn't remember was I had taken the top of my bathers down as they were rubbing and as I was just sitting in the unit I hadn't pulled them back so when I pulled my dress of and looked down I was naked to my waist, there was three young boys sitting about 5 mtres away leaning against the toilet wall I was facing them and I nearly died the were just staring at me with horrified looks on there faces, and I don't think they took a drink from their stubbies for fully five mins which was how long it took me to drop to the ground from where I never moved till it was nearly dark when the kids came back and Cassie said 'MUM what did you do that for'? Omg it wasn't funny at the time but we have laughed about it a lot since . 3/ was when I was driving my daughter Melissa to the Drs and was sitting waiting to do a right hand turn when a truck pulled up there was traffic jam ahead of it it was going in the opposite direction and it had cows in it, it was a very hot day and there was no airconditioning in our car in those days of very limited finances... well I'm sitting there thinking we are going to be late for this appointment even though we were outside the Dr's surgery when avery large cow decide it needed to relief itself and boy did it ever both ways and it was so close to our car it came straight thru my window all over me both wee and poo I was covered in it and Melissa who was about 8 nearly died laughing and I just nearly died and we never doid make the appointment there have been others far too many I would say but they are the ones the kids remember and laugh about love Lara

Funny sort of a day, for me that is, g.son spotted his copy book again, got called up to the school, this is his first day back after suspension, this child has probs, I will sort the little b. out, he is a great kid. Yesterday was the first anniversary of my mums death, on my mind a bit, of course you can't say anything about that whilst you're sitting with school councellors talking about g.son but thinking also of your own mum, bugger, doesn't matter just being a bit silly luv Jilx, thanks

Night Vonny Knock knock Who's there Parsnips Parsnips who? Pa snips tickets at the railway station Boom boom Must be time for bed....... By the way - there's a thread on the main board about telling your most embarrassing moment. Do you think we should start that topic within the Wattlers thread. As we know one another, it should be hilarious! I have one in mind but I'll only tell it if every one else agrees to tell theirs! :>)) Anna

Evening All Just dashing through - busy week with eisteddfod. All going well. Tony - hope your Mum had a happy birthday and that the chinese was delicious. Sending pats to all the poor cats who are indisposed and hope they are OK. Not long until Sydney meet - hope you are feeling better Shazz. Devley- not too many more days to count down. Cheer up mate - have a stiff scotch and swear a lot! Lew - how do you make your potato and parsnip mash? I love parsnip and it sounds great. Hope the new bub and the rest of the family are doing well Laurie. I lost the photo site off my favourites when we had computer problems - could you please remind me what it is so I can view the new little man. Hi Jood - sound as if you need a stiff scotch and a good swear too. You get those days. Sounds as if Lara had one too with the bleeding cheese cake going all over the van. Poor Lara. You know what I'm going to say - have a stiff scotch and a good swear! Heather - lovely to hear your daughter did so well in the eisteddfod. Congratulations to her. I just love listening to all the kids play - they are an inspiration and you know from your own experience how much hard work goes into every performance. No word from the travelling Wilson as yet. Hello Wilson if you drop in. Hi Mary - hope John went OK today. He has to be right for the big move Hello to everyone else. Catch you all tomorrow. Cheers Anna

Evenin' all Hi Gwenda...if 3C is purring then she must be happy. We can always tell what sort of a mood Winnie is in by the way she 'talks' to us. Graeme learnt this when I was in hospital.....he bought home the WRONG cat biscuits. She let him know in no uncertain manner that he was not a reliable shopper....lol Hi Joodles....how's the weather...are you rugged up well? Tony.... I like chinese, I like chinese, They only come up to you knees, Yet they're always friendly and they're ready to to please. I like chinese, I like chinese, There's nine hundred million of them in the world today, You'd better learn to like them, that's what I say. I like chinese, I like chinese, They come from a long way overseas, But they're cute, and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please. I like chinese food, The waiters never are rude, Think the many things they've done to impress, There's maoism, taoism, eging and chess. I like chinese, I like chinese, I like their tiny little trees, Their zen, their ping-pong, their ying and yang-eze. I like chinese thought, The wisdom that Confusious taught, If Darwin is anything to shout about, The chinese will survive us all without any doubt. So, I like chinese, I like chinese, They only come up to you knees, Yet they're wise, and they're witty, and they're ready to please I like chinese, I like chinese, They're food is guaranteed to please, A fourteen, a seven, a nine and li-chese I like chinese, I like chinese, I like their tiny little trees, Their zen, their ping-pong, their yin and yang-eze I like chinese, I like chinese, (fade out....) Have a great night with yer mum. I might have an early night.....get some bewdy sleep. love Trifley X

Thats good Tony - many times I've pressed a lift button to make it work faster,........... doesn't it? .. You mean ..... lol I wonder about dogs hanging out the window and why dont they put a light in the freezer and why the gyno goes out of the room .. pmsl Jood

Joodle. Loved the joke...lol Well.... its nearly time to take mum out for Chinese. I hope they stand still while we cook them....:>)))) Did you ever stop and wonder... Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, 'I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?' Who was the first person to say, 'See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta it's bum.' Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer? Why does your Obstetrician, Gynaecologist leave the room when you get undressed if they are going to look up there anyway? Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs? If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables,then what is baby oil made from? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? Stop singing and read on... Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you,but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window? Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster? Tony Oz..>)))

Hi all, Trifley - 3C is sorta okay - still got a bit of a cough now and again, has eaten a little bit - this is a cat that my son calls Pacman cos she could pac the food away - we've had a little play in the bathroom with the water in the sink - she likes catching the water as it comes out the tap and has a little drink at the same time - now she's back on the gas duct warming her tummy - v-e-t hasn't called so guess we won't be going today and I'm at work all day tomorrow - but she's still purring loudly so things must be pretty right with her world. Lara - you mucky pup - can just see the beaters whirring and you watching the mix splatter everywhere - pmsl Daughter used to have gripe water like it was going out of fashion and both kids slept on their tummies. Bad mummy.... Had phone call from cuz doing book for Brook family - aaaarrrghh she's coming here in a couple of weeks to look at my bits and see if we have any gaps - guess who has to tidy the house so we can use the dining table - and I have to get all my bits of paper in some sort of order - aaaarrrrrggghhhhh. I've thrown a few bits out so far but the table still doesn't look any better - I need a fairy godmother I think So I'd better get off my butt, get some tea organised and see what other odds and ends I can chuck.

Well, that didn't work. I got settled for a sleep and favourite nephew turned up to check on me. That's ok 'cos I like him and don't mind him dropping in. Tony...I know what you mean about fresh foods. The tomatoes you grow at home always smell wonderful and taste great. Once you wash the chook poop off, of course...lol. I think phenergan might be back at the chemist. I've got a feeling I saw some on the shelf of our local pharmacy not so long ago. In fact I had a couple of shots in the b*m while I was in hospital. it might be making a come-back. Love Trifley X

:) A woman went to a pet shop & immediately spotted a large, beautiful parrot.. There was a sign on the cage that said $50.00. 'Why so little,' she asked the pet store owner. The owner looked at her and said, 'Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of Prostitution and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff.' The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird anyway. She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something. The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, 'New house, new madam.' The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought 'that's really not so bad.' When her 2 teenage daughters returned from school the bird saw and said, 'New house, new madam, new girls.' The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation considering how and where the parrot had been raised. Moments later, the woman's husband Wayne came home from work. The bird looked at him and said, 'Hi, Wayne!' ~~~ Oooops

My eyes are tired from reading. tried going forwards. tried it in reverse. sounds like you've all had a pretty nice day. Happy Birthday to the Baby Boy - and to Tony's mum. I did have a quick look this morning but I get too distracted and I end up late as well. Sorry Can't fwd badges 'cause cant recall your e Trifley. I can only be an organised person sometimes, then the ditz kicks in. I did have a flash though when you said that you went to Helensvale. My ex bro in law lives out that way. I haven't got my census sheet yet either. almost hyperventilated thinking it was today it had to be filled in. helloooo Yvette. 4 pairs of eyes rolling back in respective heads at that particular moment. Shazz, If you turn up on wheels, I'll push ya anywhere you want to go - promise. Seeing its thursday and we are deficient in the food sector, I'm going to get a few grocery bits. Essential items like pet food, milk, brekky cereal and a huge bag of apples. Can't wait for the 12th. love Yvette xx PS I used to sneak the gripe water too

I think I remember castor oil too, but mixed with sugar - and a bex powder mixed with jam (with a match) and grated apple gone brown for tummy aches..

Tony, Phenergen was taken of the market for children a few years ago they said it was harmful bit bloody late for all our kids eh we used to dip bubs dummy in it and always gave them some if teething was causing problems. Tony please say big Happy Birthday for me to Lorna Doone bit late but like Jood I don't go on the general board much any more even to read as havn't got time can't do what I'm supposed to as is Bounce sheets peeps are the antistatic pieces of foam rubber sort of stuff that you put in the tumble dryer and they apparently do all these magical things too. I got a PM from Kerrie and she seems to have fixed up the problem with her tree which is good. Mary do hope the Dr is able to help John its not nice to be in pain continually like that. How mant days now please till you move its exciting eh send me some photos of new place please when you have time You ought to see my cheese cake it looks beautiful but s**t what a mess as I didn't have a big enough bowl to beat all the ingredients in and when I took the beaters out they were still spinning and omg it went all over the cuboards and bench and me too LOL. So have just finished it and put in frig and cleaned up van still have to clean me but it will wait till shower time. Hi Tassie it sounds like you are having the same probs like my poor Cassie she is stuck in the middle of one hell of a feud in her partners family and as she says you just have to hold your tongue but as half of them are her house guests at the moment she said she doesn't feel like going home to her house after work poor kid she doesn't need this with all what's still happening with this blasted builder no wonder you are counting the sleeps to Sydney wish I could be there too but prices for flights are ridiculous just for one day for me so will have to miss it darn Must go and get cleaned u pfor barbie and get billies tea.
