Thankyou Cookie - job well done.

Good one cookie!
DD, you can come with me if you drive to Katanning, but I'm leaving early Friday morning and I'm guessing that you'll be working?
-

We are hoping to all travel down together but will depend on work commitments for a couple of us.

Apologies to Nazar and VHJ. You are both on my list so I onlt half forgot you. Blame it on my rocking caravan. :-* :-* :-*
-
Only overlooked because you were all driving yourselves and were all ok :D whew
-

Why is the caravan rocking??? ;) ;)
I have recently found out I will be in Perth presenting at a conference the days preceding our weekend get together. So hopefully will be driving down from Perth on Friday morning if any one else needs a lift.
-
Denise I can pick you up on my way down 😄

It was very windy up at Monkey Mia where Cookie is holidaying Den.
-
what an idiot my nephew is
rockingham jetty (WA)
-
Uni, is that your nephew in the photo :o :o :o :o :o
What ever is he doing??
-
yes it is Merrilyn there was no reason for him beening there , he is crazy
-
Obviously he is not very bright uni.
Gert
-
lol no hes not ;D
-
Hi mother must be so proud of that act of stupidity. Luckily he survived eh?
Gert
-
Obviously he is not very bright uni.
Gert
. . . or maybe just a little wet behind the ears!! . . . or after this episode - VERY wet all over . . . . . :-)) :-)) ???
The photo in itself I find quite beautiful . . . but my stomach does backflips to think what might have happened to him . . . . :o
-
i did feel sick when his sister put in on facebook, and hopeful my DB will show (get the belt out and let him feel the pain)him how much it would hurt the family if something did happen.
-
OMG fundj that is so dangerous. Why do some people have no fear? :o
Silly boy
-
Gosh Uni, he is an idiot, we have another one coming through later today >:(
H :)
-
problem is if he got into trouble, other people have to risk their lives saving him...
-
so true CP, thats what i was saying to my sister this morning
-
How old is he, Uni? Sometimes the young just see the adventure and the excitement. It's not until they get to our age and have kids of their own that they begin to realise what we were on about . . .It'll be a huge learning curve for him ;) So glad he's ok . . and he'll be showing that photo to his grandkids .. . . and probably issuing stern warnings!!
-
GF he is 21 going on to 3 by the looks of it , such a silly thing to do
-
Glad he is ok Uni. :)
-
OMG Uni, my boys probably know him - my eldest is 21 on Thursday :-)) :-)) We are in Rockingham, have another load of storms coming through tonight :( :(
-
Boys !!!!
-
Great job with organising the car pooling Cookie, thanks :)
-
Denise I can pick you up on my way down 😄
Thankyou very much Kathryn, i was happy to drive alone but would much prefer some company
-
Thanks Kathryn and Denise. :-* :-* :-*
-
Hopefully everyone will see this.
Does anyone have any problems with the fact that I would like to give each driver a list of their passengers email addresses and 'real' names? I would also like to give the passengers their drivers email address and 'real' name.
If no one minds I'll get it done by the end of the week. Then people can email each other and work out times, places etc for the pick ups.
-
Good idea Cookie - it will be nice to know I am driving down there with
a real person and not a cookie ;D Perhaps put a copy in the retreat thread too just in case some miss it ;)
-
None at all cookie 1. Most everyone going is a real person I guess. Cecilia outed herself As Ros but what happened to that thread I don't know. HOUGH is still a mystery having joined the forum and the retreat all on the same day but since he/ she is coming will surely let us know who they are. We have the + people but surely they will not want to remain anonymous unless they are afraid of Grace finding out they are coming to a place where Tenina is . In any case the photos eventually will reveal all. Anyone wanting to remain a secret from HO should raise their hand and declare they do not want their pic taken and anyone reporting back to Grace might want to rethink coming at all.
I think we are all adult enough to be trusted with our names and email addresses amongst ourselves. After all this is a meet and get to know each other in an informal setting where we can share our stories. Strangers we are not or what is the point?
It is all about fun so let us get the minutiae out of the way.
My name is Gretchen Fitch And I am a Thermomix fan. Ok I know bad rhyming last name but so apt.

I'm sure she will if it can fit in the carry on luggage. ;D ;D
-
Oh couldn't do TT. There was a girl at school nicknamed TT for Titanic Tits. Mine are big but I don't think they'd sink the Titanic. A dinghy perhaps.

I am a very shy person in real life. Very retiring . Very quiet. In fact you will hardly notice I am there.
Gert

Daughter to 9 year old grand daughter, " Ma is going to meet up with all the people she talks to on the Internet". GD thinks for a moment, then says. "Mum, I think that is a very good idea, as they might all have buck teeth and zits, ( pimples)."
Ma is me, Bess Schubert and DH is Ral Schubert. So looking forward to catching up with all you lovely people with zits and buck teeth.
-
;D ;D ;D ;D
Priceless Chookie. Maybe for the fancy dress I can have some buck teeth and zits.
-
That's priceless Chookie. The things that go through children's minds :D :D Great idea Michelle, that went through my mind too. Go for it and Chookie can take a photo back for her GD :D :D
I don't know what I will be like that weekend - geez, how long is it since I had a break. I do hope to enjoy myself though and make the most of this wonderful opportunity - Judy Edwards c1946 ;)
-
;D ;D ;D ;D
Priceless Chookie. Maybe for the fancy dress I can have some buck teeth and zits.
Remember when you could buy those candy ones. What a photo that would make if we all had them! ;D
Hi Bess.
-
I'll see what I can do.
-
Halex I am in Attadale - where are you?
-
;D ;D ;D ;D

Hi Bess.
You can still buy them Gert but they are a lot smaller now but i think it would still work for a photo.
-
;D ;D ;D ;D

Hi Bess.
Well I have not been looking for candy in about 55 years. Good to know. Where would you buy them?
Gert

-
Any lolly shop has them and supermarkets have them in packets of mized lollies.
I can buy enough for everyone and bring them along.
-
Michele, I think GD would enjoy the photo. Perhaps we could add zits with eyebrow pencil?
-
Good idea Chookie. I think we will enjoy posing for the photo too.
-
Michele I'll pick up the 'teeth' then you don't have to put them in your luggage. I'll pack them with the port, biscuits and graneusli.
-
"Mum, I think that is a very good idea, as they might all have buck teeth and zits, ( pimples)."
Whoa that would be scary in the eyes of a kid. I'm conjuring up some pretty radical images now.
Back in the day...I remember when those teeth would fit all the way around your top teeth, and now they only go across the front four. (Hmn in retrospect perhaps I have a big mouth)

and what about the big red lips. We would always try to kiss the boys wearing them.

GD is going to get a laugh out of this photo Chookie :D
-
I don't remember big red lips, but I remember black tongues from choo choo bars
-
I remember choo choo bars.
