hey folks.... my grandaughter and her husband to be are visiting australia in a few months/... they are going to sidney and a few other places..... any advice for them? i am apprehensive because it is so far and they are not

12:52 am

sammysmom

""seasoned travelers"... hr mother is really scared of this trip

12:53 am

rururocks

I would think Aussie land is pretty safe for travels

12:53 am

sammysmom

any advice lizlin or dizgrannie??

12:53 am

Lizlin

Why scared? It's a long trip but Australia is a safe country. Take plenty of sunscreen.

12:54 am

dizgrannie

Sammy, when in Sydney - they will HAVE to do tours of Sydney Harbour. Maybe travel up the Blue Mountains. Depends on where they are staying, there are al lot of day trips.

12:54 am

Lizlin

Don't walk in grassy areas! The Gold Coast is lovely - but get into the hinterland, away from the glitz of tourism.

12:55 am

sammysmom

they want to go to the opera house

12:55 am

rururocks

what's wrong with grassy areas?

12:55 am

Lizlin

That whole area is beautiful - Sydney Rocks. There's a great walking tour of The Rocks.

12:55 am

dizgrannie

the opera house is on Sydney Harbour - they will loved it.

12:55 am

Lizlin

It's what lurks in long grass, Ru, especially in warm weather.

12:56 am

rururocks

ew.. like snakes?

12:56 am

dizgrannie

lol Liz, seen a few around here.

12:56 am

Lizlin

The walking tour tells you something of the history of the area.

12:56 am

sammysmom

said something about carnes?

12:56 am

Lizlin

Yes, Ru. But as long as you keep your eyes open, you're all right.

12:57 am

sammysmom

maybe meant cairns?

12:57 am

rururocks

ugh. no thanks

12:57 am

Lizlin

Cairns - to go to the Reef. We stay slightly out of Cairns in a place called Trinity Beach. Has good access to everything up there.

12:57 am

dizgrannie

do you mean Cairns in Nth Qld? another beautiful place - Great Barrier Reef

12:58 am

Lizlin

Cairns itself is just a city.

12:58 am

sammysmom

did say they want to go to the reef

12:59 am

Lizlin

But Ru, in the 9 years I've lived here, I've seen nothing venomous - just a few pythons but I hate snakes and stay clear of them.

12:59 am

rururocks

none of the pythons were named Monty by any chance?

1:00 am

Lizlin

If they go to the Reef, I recommend a company called Ocean Spirit. Also while there a tour into the Daintree and also to Kuranda.

1:00 am

Lizlin

I'd've liked to meet the Monty ones!

1:01 am

rururocks

I just can't stand snakes

1:01 am

rururocks

they scare the crap out of me

1:01 am

Lizlin

I'm in total agreement with you.

1:03 am

rururocks

I would take on anything other than a snake

1:03 am

sammysmom

thanks... i will tell her

1:05 am

Lizlin

I'm sure they'll have an amazing time.

1:06 am

Lizlin

When are they headed out here. Just wondering if it'll still be whale watching season.

1:06 am

sammysmom

then i want them to come back and settle down and make babies

1:06 am

sammysmom

october i think

1:07 am

Lizlin

Probably still OK in Sydney and there are still a few up here in October. Well worth doing if the whales are still around.

1:10 am

rururocks

did I tell you we saw a pod of orcas in the wild in BC Liz?

1:11 am

Lizlin

That's awesome Ru. We also saw some orcas up there. We went out whale watching from Victoria.

1:11 am

flosey

what causes these red boxes!!!!!!!!

1:12 am

Lizlin

We are totally obsessed by whale watching.

1:12 am

Lizlin

No idea, Flosey.

1:14 am

flosey

I once saw whales right in near the ferry dock, was quite a surprise to see them in so close

1:14 am

Lizlin

That must've been wonderful.

1:15 am

rururocks

I love whale watching too

1:15 am

flosey

a very pleasant surprise

1:15 am

rururocks

next time is bears and wolves for me in BC

1:16 am

Lizlin

Well, Ru - perhaps one day you'll get to the E Coast of Aus in whale watching season. The humpbacks are so active. Unfortunately it was cancelled due to bad weather when we were in NZ - but in any case at the moment Kaikoura is a no go area because of the last earthquake.

1:17 am

flosey

we did see a bear up the hill behind our home - ONCE only!!! he was standing on hind legs and leaning up against a tree

1:17 am

rururocks

I will go to NZ.. I doubt i'll make it to aussie land in my lifetime

1:17 am

Lizlin

Bears and wolves sound exciting - from a bit of a distance.

1:18 am

Lizlin

Do it in one trip. What's a 3 hour flight compared to the flight from the USA?

1:18 am

rururocks

next trip flosey.. I'm going to Haida Gwaii

1:18 am

Lizlin

Haida Gwaii???

1:19 am

rururocks

yep

1:19 am

rururocks

north of flosey

1:19 am

rururocks

(used to be called the queen charlotte islands)

1:20 am

Lizlin

Ah, thanks. OK that's the name I learned back in school a long time ago.

1:21 am

Lizlin

Got to go. Expecting a friend any minute now. Good chatting.

1:22 am

flosey

have never been there ru, the year before we were married I came out and bussed up to Smithers -whew, what a trip!!, to see hubby - he was timber cruising as a summer job

1:23 am

rururocks

I'm really looking forward to going there. I just visited tofino and liked that a lot

1:23 am

flosey

it is beautiful country

1:23 am

rururocks

it sure is

1:24 am

rururocks

I'm considering buying a place up your way

1:24 am

flosey

ah, lovely, ru

1:25 am

rururocks

I like the Qualicum area the best so far

1:25 am

flosey

I did notice you sporting the Canadian flag lately

1:26 am

rururocks

I'm going to pop in and see bugs on my way back and drive around with an agent.

1:29 am

flosey

lovely

1:31 am

rururocks

we'll have to have another dinner party at Jilli's :D

1:31 am

rururocks

I think she'd kill me if I tried that again :D

1:31 am

flosey

that would be lovely

1:32 am

flosey

I can't imaging!! I think she'd love it

1:32 am

rururocks

i think we used every plate she had at her house

1:33 am

flosey

probably took two washings to do all the dishes!! but that was fun

1:34 am

rururocks

yes.. it was.. especially for me

1:36 am

flosey

we also have a large diningroom - don't think we've ever sat more than 8 though

1:36 am

rururocks

8 is perfect

1:37 am

rururocks

I still have to do that veggie dinner with mr. flosey sometime

1:37 am

flosey

well, any time

1:40 am

rururocks

time for bed.. have a great night flosey

1:40 am

sprite

good morning all

1:40 am

flosey

sweet sleep ru,

1:41 am

flosey

and, Good morning Sprite

1:41 am

sprite

*hugs flosey* Good evening to you

1:42 am

flosey

and that it is, time to hit the sack!! but must pick up a dozen more words so I'll be at least half way

1:43 am

sprite

:) Glad to have your company for a little longer

1:43 am

sprite

phantom: tornado

1:44 am

grannyrose

hugs for my dearest sprite, and flosey too. and before you ask, i have had a VERY busy day. prolly bit off more than i could chew. and i haven't finished yet.. mwah

1:44 am

flosey

hugs Rose, was just wondering if you'd be in tonight

1:44 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Okay sweetie, time to put your feet up, grab a glass of wine and find some more words with us.

1:45 am

grannyrose

feet up, pear cider though. i ache all over.

1:45 am

sprite

cider good too. *gentle healing vibes to your poor ole bod*

1:46 am

flosey

hmmm, pear cider sounds good, have never had it, only apple

1:46 am

sprite

I prefer apple. But the pear is good too.

1:46 am

flosey

but why so achey?

1:47 am

grannyrose

*fingers crossed* i think the pneumovax is doing it.

1:47 am

flosey

not familiar with that med.

1:47 am

sprite

quite possible. Body busy making antibodies.

1:48 am

grannyrose

vaccine against pneumonia. available free here for over 65's.

1:48 am

Maisie

Good morning all

1:48 am

sprite

of course, overdoing it today did not help :P

1:48 am

sprite

*hugs Maisie* Good morning!

1:48 am

rururocks

that's nothing to sneeze at granny

1:48 am

flosey

good morning Maisie

1:49 am

sprite

indeed it i snot, ru

1:49 am

Maisie

Strange you talking about that vaccine, I got a letter yesterday offering me the same

1:49 am

grannyrose

{{maisie}} hugs dear

1:49 am

Maisie

Hugs back xx

1:50 am

grannyrose

maisie, it's better than having pneumonia

1:50 am

Maisie

I still feel too young for all that malarkey

1:50 am

sprite

most things are

1:51 am

Maisie

You are both right of course

1:51 am

Maisie

Might see if I can get it done at the same time as my travel injections

1:51 am

sprite

I'd say go get the vax. My daughter once had a hidden pneumonia. She overcame it without meds because we didn't know she was seriously ill. Took a lot out of her, brought her to an all-time low energy level.

1:52 am

Maisie

My granddaughter Millie is coming with me, she is so excited for some reason

1:52 am

sprite

aw that is sweet

1:53 am

flosey

lovely Maisie, enjoy

1:54 am

Maisie

She's staying with me for two nights from Sunday and the thing she most wants to do is go on a bus. She can't wait to get a bus pass like me lol

1:54 am

sprite

brilliant. You'll have such a great time together

1:54 am

Maisie

She will be 4 next week so has a long time to wait

1:54 am

flosey

must get to bed - almost the witching hour! - 6 more minutes

1:55 am

flosey

good night all, be back in he morning for remaining 137

1:55 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey, and pleasant dreams *hug*

1:55 am

grannyrose

sweet dreams dear flosey *blows kisses*

1:55 am

Maisie

Night flosey

1:56 am

sprite

lol, am at 181 left, 81 in.

1:57 am

sprite

can you believe it, I already did the grocery shopping. Caya is coming home for a night and I am gonna cook an indian meatball curry in the slowcooker.

1:58 am

Maisie

Sound delicious I love Indian food

1:58 am

grannyrose

*blinks* is this the same sprite from yesterday? well done darling

1:58 am

sprite

oh, me too! Indian food is soooo good.

1:59 am

sprite

rose, it is a bit of emergency measure, lol... I try to do stuff before I run out of energy. But yeah, things are going better.

1:59 am

Maisie

We need a "like" button on here like Facebook

2:00 am

sprite

first time I'll adapt a recipe to the slowcooker myself. Hope it will go well.

2:00 am

sprite

lol Maisie!

2:00 am

grannyrose

good on you honey.

2:00 am

Maisie

Al you need is less liquid and it will be fine

2:00 am

sprite

thanks for that tip.

2:02 am

Maisie

I used to love putting the slow cooker on then going to work. I'd come home forgetting that I'd put it on and be met by a lovely smell as I came in the door. Almost like someone else getting dinner ready for you

2:03 am

sprite

so very true! I bless the thing daily. I found out that this slowcooker has a little less power than most, so I will have to put things on for longer. Since I do that, every recipe is a success.

2:07 am

sprite

name that proper noun: biggest city in Michigan

2:07 am

grannyrose

detroit

2:08 am

flosey

let us know how it turns out Sprite - I'd love a recipe - seldom use the slow cooker (shame on me) but your dinner sounds good. I do love to cook, but, actually, hubby does most of the cooking here these days, bless him! And he is a good cook!

2:08 am

sprite

dingdingding our rose wins the egg holder

2:08 am

Maisie

wish mine was

2:08 am

sprite

okay, will let you know and will share the recipe :)

2:08 am

grannyrose

and that would be a hen ??

2:09 am

Maisie

lol

2:09 am

sprite

hmmmm prolly translates differently than I thought. The little cups in which you can put the boiled egg on the breakfast table. Egg cup?

2:10 am

Maisie

Yes egg cup but you know Rose!

2:10 am

sprite

oh, remember our talk about ir4ing clothes? Here it is... and also our preferred form un8.

2:11 am

Maisie

Thanks for that 8

2:11 am

sprite

*giggles* I know, I know. Rose, darling, the egg cup goes with the salt and pepper shakers set. If you win again, you will win the second egg cup to make it complete.

2:11 am

sprite

yvw :)

2:11 am

grannyrose

moi ?? what's wrong with a hen??....loll

2:12 am

sprite

silly rose :P

2:12 am

Maisie

you two crack me up

2:12 am

grannyrose

prolly would suffocate in the bubble wrap...

2:13 am

grannyrose

the hen, not the egg cup

2:13 am

sprite

yeah, hens don't do well in bubble wrap.

2:13 am

Maisie

Must go, last day at work. Probably be the last I do there as i'm back to babysitting duties from September

2:14 am

sprite

have a great day then, Maisie, make it count. *hugs*

2:14 am

grannyrose

here's to a good day maisie. xoxox

2:14 am

Maisie

Thank you bye both xoxo

2:15 am

sprite

the bubble wrap would be good for the eggs though. Hm... might have to think up a device to keep the hen breathing but the eggs safely ensconced in bubble wrap.

2:17 am

sprite

oh, one of your grandkids is in the grid, rose!

2:18 am

grannyrose

yup, i know. too cute

2:18 am

sprite

and just like you and me, he is valid

2:25 am

sprite

Rob said to thank you both again for the garmin. He had to drive Caya to Deventer, and he said he would never have found the right address without the garmin. A fly poop in the middle of nowhere.

2:29 am

sprite

squirrel?

2:29 am

grannyrose

oh that is so good to see. don is pleased that it is proving useful.

2:29 am

grannyrose

*raspberries*

2:29 am

sprite

it is :)

2:29 am

sprite

*grins*

2:31 am

grannyrose

oh good grief you should hear our MP's. one of them wore a full burkah (sp) into parliament today.

2:31 am

sprite

to make a point or because she always does?

2:32 am

grannyrose

she wants the burkah banned in parliamentary rooms.

2:33 am

sprite

I wish people wouldn't fight over stuff like that. It isn't that long ago that a good Christian woman wore something to cover her head too. Give it time, things will mellow down.

2:35 am

grannyrose

i know honey. but not being able to ID who is under the burkah is a good point. but then, everyone goes though scanning before being allowed into parliamnet.

2:36 am

sprite

or give the burkah ladies a room where a female guard can ID them. It really isn't that hard to make it work, sigh

2:38 am

flosey

122 left for tomorrow, good night ladies

2:38 am

sprite

ohhhh flosey was doing a jilli on us! Good night again :D

2:39 am

flosey

must ask jilli why she's never here anymore, I do see her at bridge some nights

2:40 am

sprite

let us know. And please tell her she is being missed here

2:40 am

flosey

I will indeed, Sprite

2:40 am

grannyrose

naughty flosey. go to bed, and no, you cannot have a drink of water

2:53 am

sprite

fireflies. Off to make the meatball curry. *hugs* my darling. Sleep well tonight, and be kind to your aching body. Give my love to Don too.

2:53 am

grannyrose

honey, i had better go. still have to prepare food for the luncheon tomorrow. hope you have a great day and your evening with Caya is lovely. xoxox

2:53 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE !!

2:54 am

MLFAN17

TI 6/18?

6:19 pm

I just play for the fun of finding words. Not how many words I have, or posting about that, or what tiles are grey, etc.

6:19 pm

moolingwa

Do you have a problem if others do?

6:20 pm

MollyL

No, and I did not say that I did. Just saying how I play.

6:20 pm

moolingwa

well good to know

6:20 pm

penquis

i don't...people play in many different ways...that alone is interesting to me...

6:20 pm

moolingwa

indeed

6:22 pm

MollyL

Each person can play the game however they want to. And post about how they do that. If someone posts about how they play, it does not indicate that they have a problem with others who play differently.

9:18 pm

zoozzoom

I hope you are doing well, Welki?

9:19 pm

i was just trying to figure out what time it was on your side of the sea - nightmares are the pits

9:20 pm

i'm doing well, thanks - busy time of year for me, trying to get so much done before the days get shorter and the weather turns

9:20 pm

Yeah I tried to go back to sleep but went stright back into the same scenario so had no choice.lol

9:21 pm

Well I do hope you find time to try and relax and have some downtime to have fun.

when i was a kid and had a bad dream, i would imagine nureyev and fonteyn dancing swan lake - not a happy story, but if i replayed it in my head, and imagined the music, i could fall back asleep

9:25 pm

nrkii

I had such bad recurring nightmares as a child that I started including a prayer every night that I would have NO dreams (because I thought it was too selfish to ask God to only give me good dreams). Oddly, it worked, and I kept that prayer in my repertoire for several years, just in case.

9:26 pm

zoozzoom

Aww that is sweet, Welki. Not nice having bad dreams when a little nipper. My problem now is i am wide awake and fully dressed again.

9:26 pm

9:26 pm

zoozzoom

((Welki)) (( Nrkii) what lovely ladies you both are.

9:27 pm

welki

i visualized (without knowing what it was), nrkii staved them off with prayer - if that doesn't work, there's always warm milk or a shot of brandy :)

9:27 pm

harpjane

I prayed for God to bless me in my dreams one night. I had a nightmare about being in debt. To this day, I believe that was actually a message from God.

9:28 pm

zoozzoom

I have a cup of very weak tea at the moment. But I kno I am up for the rest f the day now. I will probably have a nap later.

9:29 pm

zoozzoom

Know*

9:29 pm

nrkii

My bad recurring nightmare was about Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme. He was paralyzed and in a coma, and it was my fault, and Eydie kept telling me it was my fault, and I felt paralyzed. Funny thing was, I was 10 years old, and I really had no idea who Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme were.

9:29 pm

welki

too bad you're already dressed, zooz. give me a few minutes and i could bore you back to sleep

9:30 pm

welki

you probably saw them on tv, or heard them on the radio - but that's a strange and frightening dream for a child to have

9:30 pm

zoozzoom

There are milllions of people out there who need so much more help than I need. There is know way God is going to bother with me.

9:31 pm

zoozzoom

Have! you would never bore me, Welki. I like your accounts of what is going on in your life :-)

9:31 pm

welki

everyone has their own struggles, zooz. large or small, there's no reason not to ask for some relief

9:31 pm

nrkii

I did see them on TV one night as I was saying good night to my parents, and I think I rolled my eyes or said something about how boring they were. And then the dreams started.

9:32 pm

zoozzoom

Wow that is strong, Nrkii. like , Welki, said you must f heard about them at some point.

9:34 pm

nrkii

I didn't get over my loathing of them until they did some guest appearances on The Nanny.

9:35 pm

zoozzoom

my one tonight was my dad slumped at the top of the window as he has a lot of things health wise going on and he had had enough and jumped out. I was running to try and stop him managed to grab his shirt but it just ripped and he fell.

9:35 pm

welki

9:36 pm

zoozzoom

9:37 pm

nrkii

zooz, that sounds like a bad one... I find when I have those kinds of dreams, I just feel completely off for at least half a day

9:38 pm

zoozzoom

Yes I have to blast my brain with lots of different things like this now I have some music going.Drinking tea. etc

9:39 pm

we were talking today about using a "code" to make a collect call. You would send a collect call, the person receiving it would decline, and you would hang up. The person would then know that you had arrived at your destination, without having to pay for the call.

for our kids the idea of long distance calls costing money is unknown.

yes - I remember that -- you would get a 3 minute long distance call for $1.00 and 50 cents per minute after that - a small fortune in those days.
