Someone get Lil a hat with the hanging corks! Some of the gals are drinking bottles of wine so there will be enough corks to hang around your hat! Kinda messy with all the wool laying around in clumps, mud and tar all over and boomerangs flying overhead! Not to mention the croc laying upside down and is starting to wake up! (Plus a few broken windows). But the food is great! Watch out if she tries to shove those maggotty grubs on you!
cooooooooooooeeeeeeeeeee aussie BBQ ,... (tea party cont..)
OOOOOHHHHHHHHH I didn't think they were real grubs.YUK Sand and RR/CC where'd you put the hat's and corks we need one for lilith. Forgot to say thanks lilith for telling us what time it is in the land of Oz.

I was having a nice nap under the gum tree (hiding when Laura mentioned dipping sheep)I was really having a nice snooze (yawning) when I heard my name and then got sprayed with the water hose!!!Now I wonder who could have done that?
Mystic...glad to see you finally woke up. Did you see the corks & CD's on my hat (see Laura's hyperlink at top of thread)I didn't have any AOL ones...sent them to that guy that was collecting them, but had some old "Quick Restore" CD's that I had worn out...I put them on me hat. I would never rat on a mate, but the one with the water hose has the initials DJM! RR/CC Jo
well cooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee folks!
Oh my goodness... our ISP went down and wouldnt you know it was the american connection that went! hahahahaha
well i am back and look at this mess! Sheep dags everywhere and the smell! I think you all best go for a swim in the billabong! I see acouple of new faces here and some with connections to my home town! welcome and come join in the fun.
I have sent the old croc home so its fine to swim... actually... some of you look like you have been into the water already! whats been going on here?? *smile*
I did pop out and get some prawns and they are going on the BBQ.. I think we are all ready for round two in the eating stakes!
Hey coco areyou there? we need some more sweet supplies...
Flowerpot and roadrunner, there are a couple of fleeces that were sheared over yonder.... do you think you can throw them? its quite an art... you must gather them all in one hand and then fling it onto the grading table so that it ends laying perfectly flat.. i am sure you could both do it.. ( duck everyone)..
and then off to the billabong with you both phew!!!
I will go in and get some towels.
After you lot have had your swim I thought we mighttake a walk through a few of the paddocks and check outthe wildlife...
well will go get the towels
lauraXX
Okay RR/CC lets get those sheep's fleece, thrown up on the grading table. How hard can that be?????? oh krykie it went right over the other side he he he I think I'll just lay it on the table. I'm ready for my swim now, maybe after we go for the walk to see some wild life we'll get to see a Koala Bear, they're so cute.
Hey Mystic someone ratted out on somone else about the hose, but do you know who was asking for it (none other then miss RR/CC) these new letters after her name have given her more nerve then before (what a gal)
still having a little problem with the server so dont worry if I dissappear for a day o.k.? dont know whats going on there!
here are the towels... dry off, put sunscreen on, your hats and walking boots and lets go!
Okay Laura thanks for the towels, hopeyou get your server fixed real quick FP
krykie...RR/CC, FP, DJM everyone is being initialized!!! Am I too late for the tour looking for wildlife? It's a good thing I brought my walking boots and canteen(guess what's in it?)you're right!! it's water..fooled ya
Hey, flowerpot...fair suck of the sav...'d ya think laura is just hidding out doing a bit of tippling? I've heard that old "me server went down" before....sorta like "the check is in the mail". And here we are doing all this work she has saved up for us...all in the name of "Entertainment". Well, I for one am going on a walkabout. Let me know when all this grunt work is done! (me and DH are going to do an overnighter in Tucson...you tell Laura that I'm on a walkabout...and don't eat all the great tucker while I am gone) RR/CC jo
Hi! My, that food smells good! Well, I see my man Jeeves has been for a dip in the boolabong. That's a fetching shade of lilac you're wearing today Jeeves! And is that perfume you're wearing? Quite a ladies' man is our Jeeves! I brought some more roast chestnuts with me, so if you just let me squeeze in right here, next to Flowerpot, I'll start handing them round the group. Mmmmmmm nice tucker!!!!
RR yes I see the cd's on your hat but I have to admit the sun shining on them blinds me.:) Flower pot I am sure RR did deserve to get a little wet. lol (after all she gets you in trouble all the time..... or is that the other way around? lol )Laura thanks for the towel. Got my boots on now ready for the walk to see the wildlife. Northern I would love a chestnut pass them this way please.
How's this for you Sand S.F.A.N.Y. he he he!!!!! :~) Sure come on we're just getting gathered here to start the walk. RR/CC don't get me in to trouble again (he he he) Mystic's not sure who's the trouble maker WELL see who spout's off at the mouth and leaves me to deal with it!!!!!! That's right the one the only TM/RR/CC.
Hi Northerner glad you had a break and could catch up with us. Hope you don't mind that I invited Jeeves back, he looked so lonely when I came calling on you I thought he might as well come back, and have some fun for a bit. MMMMMM I had roasted Chestnuts in Switzerland and really enjoyed them, don't mind if I do thanks.
haha FP...would that be fanny for short? Are you sure it's not TM/FP and TM/RR/CC and TM/IML and who else had that hose? I hope Northern (N) and Lilith(L)don't get the wrong idea and think that you want to keep Jeeves here forever. Not a bad idea, though, can he cook? Mystic, are there any chestnuts left? Those are really good! And where did djm go? Is she still looking for those grubs? You sure have a nice place here Laura(IML)
well thanks sand.....
hey pass some of the chesnuts over here.....
almost ready for the walk about and if you have any wildlife
questions I will endevour to answer them... now where is the aeroguard... it keeps the skeeters away..
laura
S..F.A.N.Y. hummmmm I never thought about dropping the "S" (grin from ear to ear) Well a new name for sand, oh Doris and Jo did you see Sand's new name.
Glad the chestnuts went down well. I don't think Jeeves would stay here permanently - I'm sure he has a lady friend tucked away somewhere. Though I wouldn't put it past him to lead a double life. Got a warm day now. Think I'll have a little dip in the billabong. Mind if i put a toe in?
I'm here. S.F.A.N.Y it is! I see where Jo snitched on me! Here I stand with innocent face! (To myself, just she wait! I'll fix her!) Lil, pass the chestnuts, please? These are lovely! Flowerpot, keep your eyes open, there must be something we can do to rile up this bunch, though it looks like most of them are out of it!
Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone has wandered off and got herself into trouble!
Quick.. get your boomerangs and woomers's ( hunting sticks)
flowerpot! find Isis, we need her crocadile wrestling skills!
hurry up to the back paddock!
I told Jo not to wander!
(go to my journal...... there is a very hungry croc there!)
what shall we do?
How's the water Northerner is it got a slight chill or is it warm? I think Jeeves like it here Northerner, look at him over there having a time, with Laura's family and the rest of us. Do you get to swim much at home? My Dad is from New Castle, and he said the water's to cold for swimming. Yah DJM it's time to get this group going. I know where the heck is "isis" (that's a little tongue twister). Oh isis where are you, we want you to help RR/CC get the kangaroo going. Boy she wrestles a croc and that dose her in, come on get out here enough resting isis. Doris and Jo have you seen her??????
Jo !!!!!!!!!!!
we are coming to save you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That crazy woman, what in sam hill is she doing fooling around the croc pond for???? isis we really need you now get your panty hose!!!!! Hey Laura yah think your DH should be here to help us??
Mmmmmmm this water's lovely and warm. Ours is freezing cold this time of year. Might even get a suntan. Is that croc tame?
Northerner I think you better go to Laura's page and check out what's happening to RR/CC we're still trying to find isis to help, you must not have heard about Jo taking off early on the walkabout.
just trying to see if I can get the hyperlink working

Yeahhhhhhhhh Laura you did it.
Well I'm sure a good gumming isn't going to hurt her. Anyone got a video camera?
I think this is a differant one djm, he's alot livliar then they other fellow.
(gasping, bleeding) Where in the heck is that croc guy when you need him? Off chasing rattlesnakes in AZ, and me here in his own country needing him. Thanks to all of you for your assist! (falling prone on sheep skin) Laura, honey, were you pusing me deeper, or trying to pull me out???Do you have anything stronger than that cheap wine? Give a yell at me cousins Liz or Ginlyn to bring me some of "Papa's Recipe", it does great with snake bite, so I'm sure it will work wonders for these croc bites.(to cousins: Don't pass this stuff around...you know Papa made it special for us "hillbillies" and it might be a mite too strong for these more refined people!) AND, if any shoes come out of that croc skin they are MINE!! OH! I have to lay down and rest a while! RR/CC Jo
ummmmmmmmmmm yes................... of course i was pushing..ah I mean pulling you out!
quick.. get the booze!
Just read a message from coco just had a big storm go through her area tornadoes lightning that explains where wingnut is and all the rest of our Texan friends.
I am sorry to hear of the storms that our friends are having! Laura, I am here to warn you! In addtion to me cousins...I have called for my "bestest friend" of about 23 years to come down here on the double and give me a hand with you. SAMI!!!! Where are you? Put that garden trowel down and come help your poor old defensless Jo. Watch out for DJM and Flowerpot...they are real sneaky, but they come through when you need them.....especially with the "corks" RR/CC Jo
Now Jo, you don't actually think your friend of 23 years, dosen't know that you're the trouble maker, not DJM or innocent little Flowerpot. You are right on, one thing we'll always help you out. "Which way did you come in" he he he. Seriously we really will help her out SAMI. What have you told her about us Jo?
Flowerpot, it might take Sami a while to get to me....she lives in Fl now (we won't tell "why" will we, Sami?), but she went to VA to house-sit for her DD and new SIL who are on their homeymoon in France. OH MY GOODNESS!!! Sami, isn't your new SIL from ONTARIO?? (now she'll side with that flowerpot just to impress her SIL) OH WOE IS ME. Jo
Oh my goodness,Roadrunner...you didn't tell me your papa's still was so far up in the woods..had to yell as I was getting closer as them fellers are scared of the "revenooers". Now this is some mighty fine "lightning" so don't you let that croc get a taste or else he might try to find his way to these West Virginny hills. Gin
Oh ROADRUNNER, you can't tease me and tell just a little bit about Sami (why did she move to Fl.)Oh yeah!!!! on the s.i.l being from Ontario. The first year DH and I went to Fl., for a couple of months, we stayed in a mobile home park in Fort Myers Beach. I ended up making quit a few friends, this one lady in particular, all her American friends used to tease her, about getting her Canadian fix when she'd spend time with me and another Ontarian. HMMMM I might not get to meet her then because I have until 9:00am on the 17th to have fun with you guys then my computor goes into storage for two ta three months. So Jo you'd better get your cousins and your old friend to help you out of your little fixes, ha ha ha!!! If it ever stops raining they might be able to get the basement poured and we could be in the house by December, but we're planning on it being at least the end of January. That way if it's sooner we'll be happy and not disappointed. Ginlyn save me some of that white lightening I might need some when I get back.
Jo and Laura, what are you doing with that croc? Jo..it looks like he must be tickling your feet(you're grinning from ear to ear!)And Laura...what are you laughing about?Jo was in deep trouble...whew...that was a close one!that ole croc decided to give you up Jo? not tasty enough? I know where we can get some grubs for him.
We're sure gonna miss you FP. Maybe you can borrow someone else's puter every once in a while to check in with us.
sfany
That's a thought sfany, I do have a portable email only unit I could e-mail some of you. I will miss this also it's my morning fix, afternoon, and evening. Dh likes to watch the stock market channels so when he turns them on I head for my puter. I just looked outside you sure can tell winter's coming look how dark it still is out there. Oh well back to normal time the end of this month.
I hope all is o.k. with our friends and the storms.. it must be really scarry!
i dont thinkthe croc was too hungry jo!
(mental note: make sure croc has teeth and is hungry next time)
no........ only kidding..pulling ya leg! we love you.....
we will miss you FP!!
well we will be off soon to have a look at some other wildlife..
laura
