Just having a drink in bed Gretchen, late breakfast for us today.  Thanks for coming to Adelaide and for the gifts, you know you left that bottle of wine I gave you in my bedroom?  The kids will love your gift pack. 

Had so many laughs last night our jaws were aching, it was a memorable evening indeed.

Behave yourself on the plane, you must be so tired so I'm sure that won't be difficult.  Catch you again next time. xxxx

Safe flight home Gert, if it wasn't so wet I walk to the airport for a coffee. I'll wave when your flight takes off :)

To all of the wonderful ladies at the ForumFest - thank you so much for the wonderful treats in our goodie bags.  I had such fun going through my bag again this morning, with "ooh and aahs and yums" from DH and the boys.  Such wonderful, creative and generous ideas.  I will have so much fun using all of the things in the bag, and each time I do, it will bring back memories of wonderful friends and a great weekend  :-* :-* :-*

Have a safe flight Gert.  It was so nice to finally meet up with you and hopefully this will be the start of many more catchups.

Have a good flight home, Gert - hope there's room to put your feet up and relax!! ;D  Thanks for all the photos and commentary . .  it really was the next best thing to being there.  (Rumour has it that K07 is having a bit of a hissy fit that he missed his photo op with you!! It'll take some time for him to get over it from what I hear . . . . :-)) ;) ;D)

Can't say how great it is to see JD looking so relaxed and dare I say, radiant, in that last photo!!!  Brought a tear to my eye I must say!!!  this is just wonderful, Judy, for you to be able to go to Chookie's last weekend . . and now this!!  Brilliant!!  Just over the moon for you!!

Just having a drink in bed Gretchen,  

Glad it was your wine, Gert . . and not another midori   :-)) ;) ;D ;D (There was a great afternoon of Japanese activities (origami, games, calligraphy, and a tea ceremony) at school on Friday . .  I even learned that "Midori" in Japanese means "green" -so there you go!)

I believe it's High Tea this afternoon?  More photos please!! :-* :-* :-*

MM - every action has some consequence . . . and this wonderfully unique consequence from  your action of a few years ago would never have happened. . you should stand for an acclamation from us all!!  As a friend of mine used to say . . . "Whoever would have thunk it!!"  lol  

For all you FFF's (read Forum Fest Feasters) for 2013 - best wishes for a safe and smooth journey back home!! -  :D :D :-* :-*

You've summed it up so well, for us non-attendees GF :)

The goodie bag sounds so delightful. Photos, ladies?

Have a safe journey home.
