Anne from Albany W Australia

d**n

well at least it got you another page

I mean't to put up the response to Anne's kind wishes on my page here, but sent a private message (fool). I said thanks and hoped all was well in WA. Gus

Hey there, Anne! Thought it was time for a visit, so I'm dropping off some Niagara riesling for your dinner tomorrow and some for your table. Hope all is well.

Trick or Treat!

I'm trick and treating for some Lake Harvest wine - I love the picture - would love to explore the area - take care and enjoy your day, Mary

Hi Anne! Dang - just typed a comment & lost it all!! Starting over Thanks for your comments on my page & on Flickr photos. We had a great time with Jane, Jaime, Celia & Bryce in Oct. In Nov. we'll get to see a friend from Switzerland who arrives on Sat. for a 2 week visit & our daughter Wendy & family who will come from NC for a short FL vacation from Nov. 5-10. We'll have a houseful, & I'll probably get even further behind on Sudoku events than I am already!! Hope you & your family are all well.

Loved the joke today Anne it really tickled me. So the photo is of Albany, it is nice to see the town view you get a feel for the size of the town. Which side do you live on from the photograph? Take care xx

Thank you Anne, Bill is doing fine still a bit sore of couse but will improve with time.

Hi Anne, Tyalgum is actually in NSW, about 5km (as the crow flies) from the QLD/NSW border and about 50km from Tweed Heads. Cheers and thanks for the flowers.

Alla-mimi-uuuumm!

Hey Anne.. Peter and I just spend a lovely weekend away in the Caravan with friends.
We all have had colds over the last few weeks. starting with Mum, a chest infection - so have been busy with running her around to doctors etc. then the boys came down, then Peter, now I have it again!! this time quite bad.

BTW. just noticed your piccie.. taken from Mt Melville..
only 6 and a bit weeks to go before Holidaying in your beautiful part of the world.
Cant Wait !!

ROFL!!! That housecleaning tip is precious! Will definitely use that one. Only problem no fireplace. In Los Angeles, never gets cold enough to use one. Have to find something like a mantle to display the get well cards!

Hi Anne, beautiful town you live in, was there too many years ago to mention. Drove down the coast from Perth over a couple of days. Thanks for the welcolm.

Hi Anne. How is everything going with you? I have been very sick over the last week and not on much. I am still coughing constantly. Sorry about all the jokes. Hope they weren't offensive.

Gosh Anne, it never rains but it pours when it comes to kids, does it? I'm pleased that Johnathon is better but sorry to hear about Jaimee. Thankfully Rebecca can get the time off but I hope all is well very soon.
As for here, things are progressing at a pleasing rate. Unfortunately, my son and his partner have to vacate their rental because the landlord is going to demolish it and put up townhouses! They are choking that area with them. The upside of that is they are looking over this side of town, so rather than be an hour away, we shall only be about 20 mins. Two oldest daughters are working in the family business, even the one who had her last ever school exam on Tuesday. They seem to be getting on ok, fingers crossed! Youngest daughter is still an absolute charm, in fact, check out Toy Elephant's page. No bias here but I think she is an amazing artist. Hubby is extremely well and I just go through each day believing that every day you wake up is a good day.
Thanks heaps for popping in and cheers for the new page. Hope you have a great weekend and will chat again soon.

Hi Anne
Already made my first mistake trying to understand how all this works, posted the first message meant for you on my own page I think.

Dear Anne;
Your picture of the mountain is very fine. I have never been there, although I have visited many mountains in many elsewhere locations and have so developed a feeling for mountain scenery from the time I was a child. There are unique qualities in both the scenery illutrsated in your picture and in your way of composing it. You have taken an outstanding view and taken a marvellous picture of it and achieved a most rewarding result. Thank-you for sharing this with us, and I am delighted that my poem did not upset you in any way

Hello Anne, how is Jaimee now? I just saw your post on André's page about it. The symptoms sound remarkably similar to asthma. Has the doctor considered trying Ventolin. Every year, my youngest daughter gets a seasonal cough, we actually call it a BARK! If I didn't know better, I would think it was whooping cough but around the time of season change from autumn to winter, she starts coughing and the only thing that relieves it is a puff of Ventolin. She never uses it any other time of the year.

No worries at all Anne.
I had my youngest checked out as well, many times, with the same result. Being an asthmatic myself, I thought I would give it a try, much to my husband's displeasure and whatdya know! It stopped the cough there and then. When I next took her to the doc, I confessed what I'd done and the doc asked what the result was. I told her and from then on, if I hear D#3 coughing around the trouble time of the year, one or two puffs when necessary and bingo, she stops.
All the very best to your daughter and grandie, it's no fun when the kids are crook!

Hi Anne, sorry for responding so late but things really got hectic for last couple of months. Got so involved in settling my younger daughter that I was in virtual spin and picture was quite hazy. It seems to be getting clearer now and hopefully she will be settled soon.
Sure enough a beautiful town where you live. Enjoy every moment. Will keep in touch now. bye and take care

Anne, just had to respond to your "Why did the damn chicken cross the road?" ROFL!!! Almost fell out of the chair, laughing so hard. Just the imagery of the chicken on its back with its legs up in the air just got me going! You're too much, my dear lady!

Hello Anne,it was lovely to receive the b'day greetings from you in my page.Thank you very much.you made me feel very special.
cheers

Hi, Anne thanks for your comments over the last few days. I've been unable to get on for various reasons, but I'll try & reply to your questions & comments now! Sat 24th The aeroplane one in Dubbo was my Father holding my daughter. The one with the motor bike was me & my husband of 6 months (still have the same one!- both husband & motorcycle!!) Sunday 25th Yes the aerial photo was over Sutherland in Sydney.

Anne: Thanks for your permission to use your photograph alongside my poem on my page.
The method is sometimes a bit hit and miss with respect to text clarity, but with yours I think it turned out it turned out OK.
Hope you like it.

Drinking in the Street? Anne ... the post holding you up, sorry you holding the post up !!!

Gday Anne, what time did you ring? We are always the first to go, leave 'em wanting more, that's what I say! We had left by about 1.30 your time. What a shame I missed the chance to talk, I feel like we would fit like gloves.
It is my goal to get to WA next year, Hubby and I owe it to ourselves to go away for a decent break, something we haven't been able to do, since our honeymoon, nearly 25 years ago! I will definitely catch up with you then. Hope the B & B is open to all!

What a shame! It was a large square table and I was at the opposite end of the phone rotation! Coulda been visiting the ladies, it was a long trip from home! Plus, followed hubby's directions...got caught in traffic, didn't we? Last to get there, first to leave. We're shockers!

Hi Anne, opened a bottle of wine yesterday when a friend dropped in, didn't look at it properly except to check it was a Sav Blanc, because that's what she likes! Noticed when I was putting stuff in the fridge that it is a Wignalls 2006. There's enough left for me for tonight! (It came with a box from Wine Selectors - cover different regions each time. The WA selection was earlier in the year). Anyway here's a glass for you to!

Please excuse me your Highness, but you really should not be seen tippling in public. What will all your subjects think? Shocking, and the London newspapers will steal your latest photo and then the shame of it!

Anne. Your two jokes are the best i have ever read in this sudokuland country.
BTW I do not know the piroshkis, can you spare the recipe with my wife?

Thank you for the recipe and for visiting my page.
I will try the Piroshkis this week end with my wife.

Hello Anne

Just dropping in to say I hope you and your family have a great Christmas and New Year.

Mickey and family.

Anne we havent decided what we are doing when we leave Perth where we stay a week we could go up to Geralton where Vic has a cousin up there,it will only be for a weekend,then 1 night in Perth & where after that I am not sure possibly round the bottom WA stopping at different places we stop in caravan parks in cabins.

Hello Mary - I'm not sure if you have your own page, but if you want to leave me any details, go to the top of this page and click on "Send Anne a private message" and I will get it.

Hi! Anne
Sorry for being late with my answer. We were not able to try the piroshkis this past weekend because the old lady had some other avatars (should i use this word?) in mind and did not want to change them. We will see when she able to work this plate. Thankyou anyhow.

Hi Anne!
It's me again. I did not read the ten pages of posting today and for that reason I do not know if there is some special place where to find your Calendar. I am curious about it. How do I reach it?

Thankyou anyhow for your answer. It was better to know about the exposure before getting into trouble.

Hi Anne. Just stopped in to say hello, and lo and behold, look at this! A little push will probably get you to ....
