Happy Birthday, Jood. Looks like you're going to have good weather for that barbie! Have a wonderful day. Actually, the transcription of that Will only took about an hour and a half, but I did get Terry to help with a couple of bits that I just couldn't read. Anyway, if anyone else has any old documents they need help with, let me know. I think Pam is busy with the census, Jood. Wasn't she handing out forms? How's everyone else doing? Trifles, are you okay and taking it easy? Well I'm off to get some breakfast. Chat soon Lew Lew xxx

Morning all, 5.30a.m. in WA. Shane has just gone to work. Another birthday today, Happy birthday Jood and enjoy your day. Went to Dr's yesterday afternoon and it seems that I had a violent reaction from one of the tablets I had to take, so I won't be taking them again but I do have to take the other 2 lots and see how I go. I think I will try and get another couple of hours shuteye and call in later. Lorraine

Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear Jood Happy Birthday to you Sounds like you're gunna have a full couple of days with good company - have a great time Cold here too Jood Off to V-E-T with 3C at 7.30 - meanwhile 2 other cats are giving me dirty looks cos all the food has been hidden as 3C hasn't been able to eat since 8pm yesterday - you'd think their throats had been cut - lol Got some new pets from Canada when OH got home - now just have to find a home for them - think we need a bigger house or a good clear out Lots of choccie too - this just might cure my addiction by the time I get through it all - here's hoping anyway. Be back later, have a good day all Gwenda

Morning all - rise'n shine. .. Cold here in the blue mountains - was cold last night too, but its only 5.45am, might get warmer. Thanks Raggy & Trifley :) .. I got my 'old grey mare' wishes after all .. pmsl Shaz, hope you are ok and recovered from your sickness. Pam - where are you, Fluffy? .. Havent seen you for a few days. .. I can't recall you going away, or not feeling well, or having puter trubs. Lew, many many thanks for spending a whole day and probably half the night deciphering an old Will of Laurie's and my ancestor. . . It's very much appreciated. Had a sleepless night from 3am .. grrrrrrrrrrrr .. I hate that. .. Might hop back into bed and see if I can get at least another hours sleep. Laurie, hope you are ok too. .. Thinking of you. Cheers Jood

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Dear Jude, Happy Birthday to You. Have a truly wonderful Day Jude. Loads of Love, R.B.xxx

Happy Birthday Joodles! The old grey mare she aint wot she used ta be Aint wot she used ta be Aint wot she used ta be The old grey mare she aint wot she used ta be Many long years agooooooo. Have a great day. love Trifley X

Evenin' all Shaz...yoo hoo ...how did you go at the Drs? Hi SuzyQ....I borrow my little nieces...3,5 & 7, when I want a kid fix but it's not the same as one of your own. When I was in hospital I was right next to maternity. Just seeing these grans with their new grandchildren was amazing. I guess it would be the ideal thing, being the base of a family history tree of your own. Another peep from WA .....the Wattle Club....from sea to shining sea. Just saw Ernie Dingo's ad for the census. it's very clever, someone has put a lot of thought into it. In 100 years our gt grandkids will have it easier to research than we do. Big ~~~~~~waves to everyone. love Trifley X

Mary - just doing what I normally do on a Tuesday, going out with a neighbourhood centre group (NOT seniors) - in fact its 35 minutes drive away. .. They are going to the Cordeaux dam for a bbq - I dont even know where the dam is. .. Tuesday night I'm going to my normal class, Wednesday out to lunch with friends over from Perth, and my daughters place for dinner tomorrow night. .. Very low key. Jood

Jood I am glad we cleared that one up..or you may have got Old grey mare wishes from us to...LOL was getting confused as I didnt want to include you with the horses... Have you got any plans for tomorrow.. Love maryxxx

Thanks Linda and Joodle for letting me know what my illness was..I can now put in all the details and let the poor man rest in peace...I really feel for him and am sorry that nobody in the family ever knew anything about him,,I hope he is reading my tree and can see that I care about him.. OH wants his dinner so I had better go and get him a B and D to keep him going.. No Martoonies tonight.. perhaps tomorrow.. Back later.. Love Maryxxx

Well, so many nice peeps to say hello to, Hi Nutter, early morning there for you, I often read your threads, sorry I can't help with your question only arrived here myself '74. thats 1974 you horrible lot I'm not that old, take care of yourself, you have mentioned that you have health probs. Lew, one of my past rellies was a basket weaver, do you think it's in the blood? Hi Lorraine, good name, my eldest girl shares the same name and I too have a sis in WA she lives near Freeo, she's also a member but still a bit new. I've been out to the wineries in Baldivis too,not a bad drop. A friends daughter aged 4yrs has just been diagnosed with TB, I think it is called the dorment type or non active, sorry can't quiet remember, but she still has to take some very strong medicine for the next nine months, her and the other twentyfour kiddies in her preschool, they all tested positive after being in contact with a teacher who was tested positive to active TB. bit of a worry eh? her Dad said the clinic where he had to take her was very crowded, this is in Brisbane.
