So here goes for some reasn my family tree is coming up blank even though is says i have info in there I have email GR to find out what is going on but they never seem to get back to me can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong Regards Kerrie

just read my mail, laughed because the next email is no 200 on stored messages in OE, might just send myself one to get that number yvette x

Hi all, waiting for another download. So I've just snuck in too. Been and done a bit early, but it was nice and close to home. Have made the kids dinner - minced up the leftover leg o'lamb with some veges and made shepherds pie. Miles wasn't too keen to eat any more after I showed his the muscle structure and discussed how closely it resembled a bit of human muscle. Poor child. I've never made too many roasts including meat - for some reason or another the kids turned off it.(hee hee), usually they get assorted roast and steamed veg with non meat based gravy. The dog always scored well. Hope they eat the shepherds pie or the pooches will be getting that too. Met a couple of lovely people from the other side of the world during my cruise through sessions on the boards. Can't believe how many numbers I grabbed last night just being opportunistic.. Dear Shazz, I'm good at pushing wheely chairs. I practice pushing a b****y trolley full of weights about all the time. and you'll have to tell me what youre wearing (fuss fuss) I've never been to a casino before. Go the pink baby!! love Yvette xxx

Hello Wattlers Lara how frustrating to do all that writing for nothing. Hey Wilson are you having a good time?? I've spent much of the morning 'negotiating' with banks......I will win!! Have a great arvo , keep warm and think pink Flakey

Hi Wattlers all, ~~ thinking pink, thinking pink~~ lara I do that too, it's a real bugger losing yr message lol send warm rays down this way plz, we're freezing !! Keep well Shazz- got a joke for you all: A little girl walks into the lounge one Sunday morning while her Dad is reading the paper. 'Where does poo come from?' she asks. The father, feeling a little perturbed that his 5 year old daughter is already asking difficult questions, thinks for a momnet, then says: 'Well, you know we just ate breakfast?' 'Yes' answers the girl. 'Well, the food goes into our tummies, and our bodies take out all the good stuff, and then whatever is left over comes out our bums when we go to the toilet, and that is poo.' The little girl looks shocked, and stares at her father with watery eyes.There is stunned silence for a few seconds, then in a trembling voice she asks - ' And Tigger ?' ~~see ya later~~ Hz in Albury

Hi Lara, what happened? Cheers Jillx

Just lost the whole message war and peace it was but the shortened version hello all love lara

Late morning all, Hope you feel better for the 12th Shazz. Just pegged some washing but don't know why as it will be as cold when I bring it back in - fingers are suffering frost bite and have another load to put out later - but like Jood said gotta get it done before the rain arrives The heater is on as it is soooo cold here. Better get and do some more ironing - a little bit at a time and I might have it finished by Christmas - lol Keep warm everyone Gwenda - who's thinking pink, pink, pink

Oh I knew I'd miss someone, lol. ~~~BIG SPECIAL WAVES FOR JOOD~~~ Sorry. *think pink, think pink* Lew Lew xxx

Update on the Jellybean . . . I just rang the hospital and NO NEWS . . . See you in a few hours Shaz . . . luv Laurie

~~~~ to you toooo Lew, lol Gee - that sun didn't come upthis morning, in the blue mountains, it's just as cold as Mudgee and Canberra by the sound of it. Freezy cold actually. .. I'm going to really have to rug up to go out. .. Trouble is by the time I get down the bottom of the mtn, the weather could be different. Lew, no news from Laurie yet, but Im sure that pink/blue baby would be born by now. Yes, I empathise with you Vonny, having to look after your grand daughter, hahaha. .. I get to see Lucas tonight, as I'm going there for dinner. .. I'll get lots of gummy smiles .. at the moment he has learnt how to bring dribble up to his mouth - he does it on purpose! .. messy lol Jood

Good Morning Wattlers Belated birthday wishes Jood, so glad you had a wonderful day. Only 10 sleeps and a weekend away in Sydeney - yeah. A weekend where we get to wear ordinary clothes instead of working gear , and I get to be clean all weekend - woohooo. Laurie I've been thinking pink all morning, after all those boys a little girl would be loverly. fingers xxxxxx I have just caught up on about 12 pages (thank you for not waffling more!) and now my head is full -lol. Went to the quilt show on Saturday, thought seeing as the football on at the 'G' I would take the train - big mistake. Had to work until 1.00pm so made it to the station just as train going. MIssed it of course, had to wait until 1.40 pm- of course stopped at all stations b****r. Didn't get to Jeff's shed until 2.40pm (show closed at 5.00pm) - of course this was after station staff explaining I had bought wrong zone ticket - I didn't know you had push the buttons for 3 zones - duh - and of course no-one to help so had to pay extra for ticket in, and a return one to get home - I was sooo embarrased - I'm a ticket dodger! Anyway the quilt show was wonderful, there was an extra exhibition of Japenese quilts - wow they were works of art- so glad I got to see them. Of course I had to browse all the stalls and bend the plastic. Goodness know where I'm going to find the time to come to work now - oh of course I have to come to work to research FH - lol. Sunday it was back to the cottage, to fit in a new (s'hand) window in the kitchen, finish off all the preparation and I finally got to paint the ceiling, and the first coat on the french doors. I love painting - such a soothing occupation - don't do canvasses though like our lovely Lara and Tony! I stick to house painting. Well have to go and so some work back later ~~~~~ to everyone jude 3

LOL, hey Laurie, you forget, they have brakes, so Ill just have to be on my guard when you say, Ready Set Go and loosen the reigns hee hee, Im really going back to bed now, just catching up on intray before logging off Have something nice to eat for me you two, Im getting sick of fruit and liquids, cant seem to eat anything else much one little PINKY crossed, two little PINKY crossed, Byee Shaz

Good Morning all you lovely Wafflers . . Yeah Tony, your a rotten sod . . . at least give the poor girl have a little support . . . Ah well as Kris said, cost less if it is another boy, all the hand me downs from 5 brothers !!! Hope your wrong Joodles, for Krissies sake, I just know it wont be the last one anyway so if it is a boy - maybe next time. I have the pink champers at the ready and lots of pink things I brought in Jakarta - all going well I might hop in the car in the morning and pop out to Bathurst for the day. Haven't heard anything yet . . . the phone is turned off, but if its cold out there in Bathurst then the poor wee thing is probably not too keen to leave its nice warm home. It is a funny hazy sort of day here by Botany Bay, a wee bit chilly! There are 6 giraffes with their heads held high, the tugs are just helping the gas tanker off the wharf over on the gas terminal, and the planes are busy coming and going. Glad you had a lovely day yesterday Joodles, you deserve it! I am off out to lunch also, dont know where, but I am going to collect Ray from the office and take him to lunch. I hated waking up this morning, the dream was soooo nice. I dreamt Ray came home from work and said he had retired and we just got in the car and drove up home. Enjoy your days off from boat building Von, you will really have earned lazing back in it when it is all finished. Shaz are you OK ???? We are all worried about you! . . . you snuck in while I was typing . . Take it steady girl, DO YOU TRUST ME TO PUSH YOU IN A WHEEL CHAIR ??? Glad all going well with the grandson Jill - Nana magic !!! Have a great day all - will check in and see what you've all been up to, later in the day . . . cheers luv Laurie
