Bye Stella.

Oh, you're still here Rolanda! I thought you went to iron and pick up your Mum.

no am not here Stella, am doing some bookkeeping first for Robert. before doing the ironing..
will be picking up Mum later on in the day..

crap?

Glad you and yours liked the peach cake. I made the peach cheesecake Friday. It wasn't overly rich or sweet. I found another recipe for cheesecake and will make it later this week.

Stella!!!! As a lovely person who NEVER uses naughty words I had no idea what was happening!

Mary, still laughing! I would have no idea as well!

well, that's because we are so sweet and innocent

Two contradictory proverbs are coiled in the grid below. To spell them out, start with one letter and move to an adjacent letter in any direction. (Hint: Start with an "L.")

look before you leap

look before you leap

Yes, that is the first proverb.

hey Rolanda, I just got the DPI again and the only date available is in 2 days time!aarrgghh

But he who hesitate is lost

aarrgghh Mary !! you want it soon but not that soon !!! grrr

Good one Rolanda

Yes, he has only started to drive on the weekend...long way to go!

What is DPI?

Yes, "Look before you leap, but he who hesitates is lost." Can't get anything by you guys!

now who said I wasn't good with words !!

oh yes, that was me

hehee

am not here, am not here, am not here

delusional too

lol

Stella, DPI is the Gov dept which I have to ring to get a date for my son to have his driving test.They are WAY understaffed and you have to keep ringing to jag a cancellation. Annoying way to spend a day or two!

How long would the wait be if you just booked a date?

MONTHS Stella !!!

I can't even book one! the waiting lists are 6 months long and I have to catch it the moment the next day is released to get on! It's a shocking system!

grrrr Mary

That is a pain in the neck! I think here it is 3-4 weeks. And I thought that was long!

they reduced the age at which you can apply and didn't employ any more testers so the waiting list has blown out of control

It's been nice chatting with you ladies. Good luck getting a good date Mary! Have fun ironing Rolanda, mine is in the next post! Have a great day! Good night! CYOTFS!

Darn, did I just miss Stella? HI, STELLA! I'm just getting back to the computer, trying to catch up on MANY pages here and archives on Easy. I hope Brendan had a super 18th birthday!

Hi also to Mary, Rolanda, Becky, Ian, MizTricia, Mamacita, Lynda, Gail, June, Dino, Cyndi, Ruby, and anyone else I can't think of right now.

Brenda, just answering your query re school fees. I send my children to the public (state run) school. Long gone are the days when children are provided with 'free' education as it was known in 'the good old days'. They say that a portion of the fees are voluntary, but there is a compulsory payment each year. Generally the fees for high school are around the $300 mark (which includes the voluntary portion) plus some of the subjects require an extra payment eg technical studies, home ec, etc. On top of this, we have to BUY the text books every year and their stationery!
On the other hand, I know of some people who send their kids to 'private' school, which costs them thousands of dollars a year.

I'm back again. Anyone around? Yes, I did get down onto the beach again. I've worked out a downhill hop with the crutches. The only problem is that I have to get back up the track again. Maybe I should put Merlin on the lead and get him to drag me up. Hehehe . he'd probably just sit down wondering what he is supposed to do!

Have you thought about roller-blades, Dino?!!!

Roller blades would get stuck in the soft sand. Maybe we could design skis for sand instead of snow.

But then there is still the problem of getting uphill. I need a chair lift.

hehehehe
