Nannanut Multiloquent Registered: Sat Jan 10 2004 Posts: 2470 Loc: Wollongong NSW Australia	Gats, I'm so sorry I missed you. I dialled to talk to you but you were on the phone to MotherGoose. I had to leave for my long drive home and couldn't wait for the redial. Now I'm jealous you didn't get a chance to attach my screen name to a voice. _________________________ Nothing matters half so much as you think it does. Editor: Movies, Celebrities and General

Either money/time ran out or some frazzled operator somewhere had a medical emergency wondering the nature of these calls going all over the world? Or, I reckon, maybe it was time for a beer run ! _________________________ "The best teacher is not the one who knows most but the one who is most capable of reducing knowledge to that simple compound of the obvious and wonderful." ...

And apologies to those we missed- Santana was right about the battery PS- anyone want a hangover? _________________________ The key to everything is patience.

Glad you all had fun, definately count me in next time, and I promise I won't accidentally delete anything ever again (well, the PM 'reply' button is right next to the 'delete' button... )

If I had transferred to the other stationary phone you would have been cut off...and plus I didn't want you guys to run up that phone bill too much. --------- Agnes (JTJ) _________________________ Agnes (JTJ) *"Whoever said, "Diamonds are a girl's best friend", never had a dog." --Anonymous*

Sorry you didn't get to talk to them, Moo. I got to talk to ozzz, Nannanut, and blinkybill. I don't know who was there at the time (it was 10:40pm here/3:40pm there). Am glad you all had fun and had a great time. Looking forward to talking to you guys again sometime! _________________________ The way to get things done is NOT to mind who gets the credit for doing them. --Benjamin Jowett No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. --Eleanor Roosevelt The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom.

We all missed him too to MG, he got a few messages and calls telling him to dump the outlaws and get over there. We had a great time together and I enjoyed talking to all you nice people from around the world. I was the first to leave on sunday and I'm sorry I missed talking to Gatsby and Leau, sniff, sniff, Edited by Blinkybill (Mon Nov 07 2005 03:23 AM) _________________________ I'd rather be over the hill than under it!

Exit10 Registered: Fri Sep 28 2001 Posts: 4253 Loc: Brisbane Queensland Australia	Not sure what else to add to that. It was a real hoot. I didn't overimbibe. These airfares are starting to add up but travelling to Sydney is worth it, (for shopping as well etc)

I can drive from one side of the island to the other in half an hour and that is allowing for traffic. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!
