Evening Wattlers Very quiet day today over here, stayed inside in the warm, with rain forecast for the weekend. Tony I hope you enjoy the movies, and if it is anything like over here, hide the popcorn very well, as not sure about in Vic, but here you are not allowed to take anything into the cinema's that isnt bought there. My ex mil who is a diabetic had some lollies in her bag incase she took a hypo and she had to throw them out if she wanted to go in as she didnt buy them at the shop in the cinema's. Thanks everyone who sent me pics of Briz meet, and the wattle looked very good. 29 Sleeps Cheers Sue

What time is the show on - shouldnt you be gone now? Jood

You know Cat - no way are you angelic pppppppppppp Tony you are definitely scottish. Jood, no rain here. Have a good night tomma - Dutch. Pam

Just back from the War memorial - staff social evening - and we saw 'The March of the Penguins' Brilliant. How did your lunch go Lew??? I still think you should take my hubby with you to Antarctica :) The movie tonight got him all wistful............... Going to check for more pickles. Thanks for the earlier ones. ~~~~~~~Vonny

Hello Wafflers Well it's that time of year again.....tax time. I've got all the paperwork together and when the last group cert comes in it can all go to the accountant. Thank the gods it only comes once a year. The usual round of evening phone calls tonight. Even got one from my sister who is holidaying in Europe. It's wonderful to have such a loving, supportive family. I'm all ready....x-rays, reports, blood tests done...now I just sit and wait to see the doc on Monday. I know I haven't been on here much but I have kept up with your posts and they give me a laugh and brighten my day......thanks you wonderful peeps. I'll check back later. love Trifley X

Hi Queenie Yea, you have been quiet lately. Just don't forget to get on here and have your 2 cents worth. Nice pickles Pam

nighty nite yellow fluffy things :) Blessings and peace, Vonny

Heeellloooo, any wattlers around? I have commandeered the puta finally - ken has had tooo many drinkies and is snoring peacefully away in bed. Nothing on tele even antiq.roadshow couldn't hold my interest lol. anyone around or are you all tucked up soundly in beddie byes? jarra

Hi Jarra I'm just about to have my passionate love affair with my bed. Think I have had enough chardys too. Have to be up reasonably early tomorra as I have a training session for work - doing a couple of weeks work for the census. Need to earn some money to go and see my little girl who is working in the USA. Her birthday is in Sept, so am hoping to be there then. Nite Vonny Nighty nite, don't let the bed bugs bite Pam

Well the movie wasn't tooooo bad. Lots of effects, but like most sequels...not as good as the first one i reckon. I gave it a 6 outa 10. The ending was a bit strange though, but i guess it leaves it open for a 3rd.Barb thought the movie was a bit overdone, and nodded off afew times. The movie lasted 150 min. Tassie. Thats a bit rough mate, especially if your MIL is diabetic. These picture theatres charge double with there food costs, ( a rip off ) and not surposed to take homemade goodies from here either mate, but Barb carries a big handbag ( say no more )...lol The cinema we go to is the Waverly Village complex, and has about 5 or 6 theatres. Well, time for a coffee and bikkie, then do a bit of Family history search. Tony Oz..:>))

Evening Wattlers - well it may be 1.28am ova in Orstyalya but its 10.28pm here. Weather in Jakarta is HOT! No make that FLAMIN' 'OT! When this place was occupied by the Dutch, they built waterways here like they had at home - the legacy is smelly open cess pools in this heat, that is the worst thing they have to offer here! Never go for a walk down any of the streets with the open waterways beside them - the smell would knock you out. What a big day I've had -Shopping, then Yum Char for lunch with friends, then they took me to a new shop they had found - at the shirt factory. Got Ray 9 shirts for 524,000rp (les than AUD$75) they are Cardin, Valino, VH - BARGAIN !!! Now that I have spoilt him, he wont have a leg to stand on when I start the major onslaught tomorrow. Took ages to get over to the factory - traffic was worst I have ever seen it here . . . and thats saying something. Had my little mate JoJo with me, he is friends little fella that has heart trubs and he is off to the States next week for surgery. When he saw me this morning he let out this great roar -'Aunty Lollie' and raced to give me a big hug - didn't let me go all morning. Tonight 8 of us went to a seafood restraunt over at Sunter, Chillie Crab, Soft Shell Crab, BBQ giant Prawns, Best Squid dish, Garame' fish, and lots of vegies (Green spinachy stuff, eggplant, Tufu) Chilli was soo out there the old nose is still itchy. All eaten with the fingers with rice . . . regular little piggies meal! Tony I got that new Pirates movie today, for 5,000rp (7,000rp = AUD$1) Got 7 movies today, and have heaps more on my list to look for. Other unreal bargain of the day King size really nice fitted sheets 35,000rp !!!! All the linen is sooo cheap. Friend Silvi got 4 pair of coordinating pillowcases for 26,000rp. Congrats to the Cat from me too - you is a clever little puddytat! Glad you all had a good time at Jupiters, and Anna, you picked a top spot for your little break away. Luv Tamborine! We used to go to St Bernards for Mystery nights, they were terrific, specially as the rooms are all creeky and the floors and ceilings are on weird slopes. But thats a whole different storey. The chain saw is working up a treat here tonight - me thinks the lovely ray is pooped! Certainly not alchol induced - none consumed! Our hotel has changed names since we were here last - it is now 'le Grandeur' - rooms have all been spruced up, but still the same lovely friendly staff. They make such a fuss of us it is easy to come back. Well I am going to say good night and hit the hay before the noise starts up again . . . catch you all tomorrow cheers luv Laurie

Heather I think your mail box is full - I have had a msg I sent you returned unable to be delivered also luv Laurie

Morning Wattlers, I'm back from Sydney and only now had the chance to get on net - b****y son was hogging it so now I've checked out emails but only just started on Wattle thread - got to end of page 1 reading backwards so who knows how many pages you've left me to catch up on. Tony - I've emptied email box a bit so try sending the lotto again Lew, Trifley & Laurie - thanks for pickles Gotta get ready for work so will be back later to catch up more Have a great day and enjoy the rain - we are getting some nice steady stuff at mo Gwenda

Good Morning Wafflers, It's raining in Mudgee, it's raining in Mudgee! And it sounds wonderful on the tin roof. 9mm so far as still falling. Laurie, you are definitely the new Miss Never Pay Retail. What bargains. Ooo, and the food sounded yummeeee. Thanks for the Lotto, Tony and Rebs. Now let's just have a win! Sorry, Jood, but I don't think the weather is going to clear today. Just take it easy on that drive and have a fun time. Good to hear from you O Regal One. And how are Nefer and the brothers? Tending to your every need I hope! lol Off to have some brekkie. I think the guest are awake. Seeya Lew Lew

Rain update: 10.8mm as at 8am, Hoorrraaayyyyy. Bring it on!

Lew was it you who put the results of the lotto in for last week when I was away? .. If so, could you do it again tonight? .. I have a feeling it was Laurie :( I'll give you the website if you dont have them Jood
