Hi all, - where to start!!!! .. From the top - ok. Linda in Berkshire - I'm from Perth originally, and know Attadale near Fremantle, also I live near South Penrith in NSW:) Flakey ..... had to laugh - it was Nutters not Flutters .. pmsl To all you lovely gorgeous people wishing me happy birthday and sending cards - many kisses and hugs to you all. .. I even had a phone call with Laurie's sister Marie singing Happy birthday, and a couple of sms msgs. Today for morning tea, the group I was with sang Happy birthday - when it came to the part 'dear Judy' - I heard someone sing 'dear Judith' - straight away I glared at the culprit and laughed. .. I knew who it was, the stirrer of the group!! As for pressies, no - have not had one. .. Not even a martooni, how boring. It was pretty brisk outside near the Cordeaux Dam. .. Did you wave when I went past, Sandra in the Gong? - poor old dam is very very low. .. We had a nice bbq and walked the length of the dam (my exercise for the day). .. Did a fair amount of talking :) I see Tony has a new fan showering him with kisses .. oooooooh .. lol When I got my sms msgs I saw one from Laurie dated 19th July ????? something about airport and 'Oni arriving , talk later'. .. Took a long time to reach me! You asked where Rebs was .. well I saw her not in the naughty corner, but in a rather sus thread ????? I'm having visions of Shazz holding on to Rob's trousers and walking behind him wherever he goes .. odd couple .. be easy to find them at the station ! lol .. I was thinking you could get some of those child restrainers, - Rob has one end round his wrist, and Shazz has one round hers. .. Also a little card round her neck with name, address and phone number .. that should do the trick (sorry Shazz - luv ya) Don't think I have ever had so many birthday wishes - so thank you all again. Luv Jood

Afternoon Wattlers Well after my earlier message ........... Where I got 10700 .......... and I did find out I got the number after going back to gen board for a moment so I put a p.s. on the bottom of message. So yes Anna I knew I got it but I think it went straight over everyone elses head apart from yours. Lara yes you did thank me for the messages and thank you for your wishes to my Mum too. I actually had to go out unexpected and while I was out I looked to the mountains and finally there is snow on them, first real big dump this winter. They had a small snowfall back about 3 weeks ago but it wasnt visiable from town, but today they are real snow capped mountains. Well done Tony, looks like you have another member of your fan club. What would we do without you :-) Ok must go for a coffee be back after, I hope. Cheers Sue

Afternoon all Am I correct in thinking that 10700 went by unnoticed and without a fanfare of trumpets trumpeting and canons firing and balloons popping etc etc!! Shame, shame, shame!! Wattlers - you are all slipping! I come on here after having been out all morning and I was gob smacked to say the least! No Puddy, no Rebs - no one at all! Birthday hugs for our Joodles. Don't drink too many martoonis. Hope you have a nice time shopping Trifley. There's sure to be a good coffee shop there as well! I'm about to have a late bite of lunch so will catch up later. Love Anna

Hellooooo Wattlers, Well firstly Happy Birthday to the Bewdiful Joodiful, hope you have a happy day and can do whatever your heart's desire. And also a Belated Happy Birthday to Lovely Lara, hope your day was great ! I've been away a while, did read some pages at start of last week then got busy, will try to go back a bit now and catch up on everybody, have to know who's been naughty and nice lol. Trifley, so glad you are out and about, the old cabin fever is no good, now don't overtire yourself flashing the plastic and let Graeme carry the parcels ! Talk about catching, I've just been googling 'face slap virus' - our early morning staffer has 2 littlies diagnosed with it and now I've scared him by finding out it's contagoius and adults can get it lol. I'd never heard of it, there you go, another childhood disease that's not very common any more. Not at all good to hear about a preschool outbreak of TB !! I remember having a screen for TB by x-ray while at school in the late 50's early 60's. Must have been enough around then to warrant it. Someone mentioned eels, I remember catching them in our creek when we were kids, our Melbourne visitors would take them back in a bucket for some immigrants in their street who adored them. I'd love to find out if there are still eels in our creek, so much good tree growing has been done by Landcare in the district I grew up in, I wouldn't be surprised if the creek has got spotted trout and eels in it again. I had a very enjoyable week at the Drama section of the Eisteddfod last week, Darlin' Daughter ( who is 15 as of last Sat) did fantastically well in her piece and they got the highest mark the edjudicator gave all week, so she was rapt. She also did 15 hours of volunteering, stage managing, announcing, and sitting with the adjudicator helping with the paperwork, she loved it all. This week is Music, I think her school choirs will be on Thursday or Friday. And a Science project is due. And the Japanese exchange students have just left. Oh my gosh, no wonder 1950 feels like yesterday lol ! I havn't looked at a dead persons for weeks, so might have to get the files out tonight and plan the next search. Have a great afternoon everyone ~~~~~~ Hz in Albury~~~~~~~

Afternoon Wattlers. The sun's shining, but there's a nasty cold wind! No problems, Laurie and Jood. As I say, I could read most of it and they still use that language today when doing Wills! Now Trifles, we country Solicitors only charge $150 - $200 per hour and that's only for advice. Other things like conveyancing and Wills are pretty cheap. Not that I care any more, heeee, heeeee, heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Well, I'm off to read my book for a while. Seeya Lew Lew xxx

Morning Wafflers Laurie...big hugs. Aaahhh...shopping....that's the way! A bit of retail therapy does wonders. I'm going to do a bit myself today. Graeme has finished the washing so we are going in to Robina for a wander around and a little window shopping. it'll be good to get out of the house for a while. Mary....not long now to the big move. I bet you'll be glad when it's all over. Crew...you and Terry make a great pair at this certificate reading. Maybe you could go into business with it? Graeme says he thought that years ago solicitors were paid by the word. Is that right? My bewdiful bunch of yellow flowersa is still looking good. I love them. Big hugs to you and Terry. Hi Yvette...what are you playing with today? I'd best go and make myself bewdiful to go to Robina. I'll catch up with you all later. Hugs to all the wonderful Wattlers. love Trifley X
