Good Morning Allan,

Sometimes what we feel in our hearts is impossible to put into words.
Many times in my life I have wished my heart could speak.

How lovely to see black swans. I sa them on the river in Melbourne,
(the Murray?) and many years ago they had them on the Serpentine in London - also pink flamingos - I wonder if they have them now?

Good evening/morning everyone. Alison - I can understand you not sleeping, but try not to over-do it. If you feel like planning your funeral - I really don't recommend it - but go ahead. I've planned mine a few times and have no intention of departing this life for a long time yet. I have made my wishes known from time to time so if and when it happens, there should be no 'wonder what mum would have wanted'. They already know now. The only problem is - if they go before I go - I wouldn't know what THEY would have wanted!

On a lighter note - this free insullation of homes has really started up a lot of 'new' businesses! I am getting door-knocks and flyers in the mailbox daily - on average, three per day! The phone calls have started now - and I have an unlisted number! I have decided to go with a person who comes recommended by the company which makes the batts. Now, don't start, boys - you know what I mean!!!

By the way - doesn't matter what you change your names to - we'll find you - won't we, Linda?

At last,
I have been having trouble getting into the site, It just kept saying "Happy Genes error". I remember that from a couple of years ago.

If I disappear suddenly in a puff of smoke, you will know why.

Well wasn't that a b**ger

It was taking an increasingly long time for my posts to appear and then woosh I was kicked off.

I had to do a quick check and eliminate some cookies my machine had picked up and then sign in again.....I never sign out unless I'm doing a quick view of the boards on a computer other than my own!

Good morning Berona, you haven't found me so far have you? :0))

I am also having problems with GR tonight, it is really very slow, and has kicked me off several times, glad I'm not alone,

That's it Allan, we'll stow away in a boat and cause havoc from there, the thread police will never find us.

I never sign out either, but it decided I was going to, then it took me ages to sign back in. All the rain we have been having must have got into the systems!

Allan Report 6 Nov 2009 22:21

Myapologies to Linda and Carole a respective good evening and good morning to you

The speed(/) of the Boards rules out any swift repartee.

Of course it could always be a plot by Berona and Linda to make sure that Tec and myself can't do a quick runner!

You two will be lucky if we don't put you into a little rowing boat and set you adrift with no internet, how would you cope then? I can just imagine you on some little island, Robinson Crusoe and his man Friday. Who would be the boss I wonder?

Ooh all of a sudden, the board is moving again, someone must have put a shilling in the meter
