Hi there Wattlers Yvette - thanks for the info on Star City - Jood gave me the site and I started to look it up then ran off to bake some biscuits! I will def be joining the Total star rewards especially if it means I win the car situated in the foyer??? lol. Shazz and I were discussing last night how much we are looking forward to meeting you, as you sound as mad as us. Tassie - re: Nan's cooking, you are so lucky, I grew up never knowing a nan, as both died before I was born and I have always envied people who have grandparents! As my kids were born here they also missed out on grandparents (who were in UK) Now you don't have to worry about meeting us lot in Sydney and remembering names - I will only know the names of 5 people and one of those is my OH. By the way you don't need trains down there in Tas, your roads are fantastic. You wouldn't know what a traffic jam was, would you? Trifley - the Hinze Dam is such a lovely place, we visited there 3 yrs ago when we took my sister from UK up to Qld for 2 weeks. It did have quite a bit of water in it then, but guess it is like our Sydney dams and very low. My sister was amazed that there were so many places to visit in Aus that you didnt have to pay to get into. Laurie - So sorry to hear about your friend Denny, I have been reading the thread and felt for you and her parents as we lost my brother in law (then aged 35) in a road accident some time ago and can empathise with what has happened. My condolences to all her family. OH and I actually assembled an Ikea gate leg table this arvo (for my miniscule kitchen) and I gave out the instructions and OH did as he was told. Result - table assembled in just over an hour. Those instruction pamphlets just have pictures, arrows and not a single word!! Used table tonight and it remained standing! Hi to everyone else popping in tonight. Looking forward to catching up with all those attending the Sydney meet on 12th. Lyn

I'm free don't grieve for me for now I'm free, I'm following the path God made for me, I took his hand when I heard him call I turned my back and left it all, I could not stay another day to laugh to love to work or play , Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found that place at close of day, If my parting has left a void then fill it with remembered joy, a friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes these things I too will miss, Be not burdened with times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow, My life's been full I savored much good friends good times a loved ones touch, Perhaps my time seems all too brief don't lengthen it now with undue grief lift up your hearts and share with me, God wanted me Now, He set me Free . Author Unknown For our dear Laurie and for Denny's Family, Rest in Peace Denny

Evening Wattlers. Laurie our sky has a bright shining star, thinking of you and Dennys family. I have had a beaut day at Nans today with about another 25 people came to visit. Ate too much as you do when its your lovely Nans cooking, no one ever cooks as good as Nan. Does anyone else think the same or remember that of their Nans? Had a lovely baked meal with lamb and pork, and I couldnt resist, I had to have a bit of crackling, I will worry about the weight I have put back on tomorrow :-( After reading back on your mesage from today, I now know why we dont have trains in Tassie, well not passenger trains anyway. Have I mentioned before that I hate travelling on trains or trams lol???? Now Im getting nervous, with all these people going to casino, how am I going to remember all the names, Im bad at that at the best of times. Well time to have a coffe and rest for a while before bed, totally drained from all the talking, laughing, and reminising. Cheers Sue

Laurie - thinking of you and Denny's family at this time - may Denny's star shine for eternity. Thoughts and prayers coming your way Gwenda

For Laurie and Denny's family Love Lives On 'Those we love are never really lost to us We feel them in so many special ways Through friends they always cared about And dreams they left behind In beauty that they added to our days In words of wisdom we still carry with us And memories that never will be gone. Those we love are never really lost to us..... For everywhere their special love lives on.' by Amanda Bradley Thinking of you and sending my love Anna
