Anne from Albany W Australia

LD - if you go back a page to my page 2, towards the top is the recipe for piroshkis but you will need to make sure you have 'recipes' clicked at the top of the page.
Cheers

Thanks everyone for your comments on my beach photo. I hope you went in to flickr and saw the rest of my photos as well, a few more of Albany and more coming up soon.

The Albany pictures are great Anne, but can we get (maybe) a skin picture on your site like Mamacita posted?

Anne, Thanks for the flowers you left at my 'humble abode' they will look great on the speakers bench. I love the look of Middleton Beach. I have never been to WA or Perth. I was booked to go, back when Ansett collapsed (they collapsed the day before my scheduled departure). I did not get around to rebooking and guess what? a better offer came up, so I went to Florida instead. I will get there one day though.

Ah the Boardwalk...looking forward to a stroll on the boardwalk...absolutely beautiful views.
I see you have more pictures of Albany on Flickr. I want to go NOW to Albany, not in 2 & a bit weeks time. :-(

just browsing. thought i'd leavea comment so I could see page 2. Love your site so far btw. You sure have alot of friends who comment. Says alot about how nice and fun you must be.

your recipe sounds good. Thanks for sharing

Anne, the beach shots are great...I'm ready ,willing, but unfortunately not able to get there in person, but thanks for the virtual tour. I've really enjoyed it! Wish I was able to change pictures around for a fresh look evey so often. Nice job.

Sun 10 Dec. Thank you D from OK, (is that Oklahoma?) for your lovely comments. Please come and visit me again sometime and we'll share a coffee.

A Merry Christmas to you too, Anne. Thanks for the many interesting photos.

Hi Anne! Like your wreath. Looks homemade and nicely done. Is that you singing??

Anne,

I was also having a lot of mouse problems - probably caused by dirt and crud in the mouse housing.

I bought a Logitech optical mouse for about US$15.00 at Staples, plugged it in, and no mouse trouble ever since.

Thank you Joe for visiting my page and letting me know about the mouse problem. I have to call in at my computer provider so will check it out. Thanks.

Merry Christmas, Anne....I am doing the rounds today and handing out Christmas goodies to all. I will be away for a week (whenever Nicole decides to have this baby) so thought I would do my visiting today. Here are some sweets I have made (slaved over I might add....lol)and a bottle of your most favourite wine...Enjoy

and I thought you were my friend!!!!
accusing me of eating all the Xmas Cake, I left some, it was JUDY, not ME.
besides you had some so you didn't miss out, I saw you munching away, so there and you missed a bit on your chin, when you wiped your face clean. :-0

Anne, Albany and it's surrounds looks great. I must try to get to WA one of these years. Both my brothers were born near Perth when Dad was in the airforce there back in the 50's. I love all your photos but I'm not too sure about the guinea pig meal.
I hope you have a very merry Christmas and a great new year with friends and family. I'm off to the beach on Saturday for 3 weeks. I can't wait.

Hello Anne!

Nice of you to drop by!! It is a great photo, wish it was mine...I laugh every time I see it.
Received another funny one yesterday, so I will post that one soon.

Hello Anne,thanks for the welcome.I hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and an even better 2007.I hope that you are not being affected by the terrible fires sweeping Australia at the moment.

Thought I would pop in and say hello before I tackle the housework, helped myself to a couple of Kahlua's to get up the energy to finish the housework seeing it is 11.00 p.m and time I should be in bed

Hello sweetheart, thank you for coming to visit me on my page. Here's something for you
You're a bit late starting your housework this time of night, aren't you. Is Johnathan asleep? I was just about to go to bed.

Has one too many Kahlua's so I may just go to bed. See can't even type properly. Johnathan is fast asleep.

Tues 12 Dec.
Okay, goodnight. Hope you get a good night's sleep.
Did you work tonight?

No I didn't work, had to have 5 days off as Wayne is doing a course and won't be home in time for me to go, not that I am complaining need a break. Goodnight

Quick visit in the wee small hours as I am up tending to wee small people. Like your wreath, did you make it?

'just popping in quickly to say Merry Christmas, Anne.

Hi Anne. Thank you for visiting me. sorry i wasnt home, but thanks for the wine. Here some flowers and a cake sorry ran out of wine, but i can assure you that the cake is very moist.

I was hoping to surprise you with a Christmas tree, but Bert beat me to it. Best wishes from the instead. Cheers Anne!

Hi Anne. Thanks for being my first visitor. I'm glad you liked what you saw, and hope that you'll call again and join me a drink and bite to eat. I do have chip and dip - just that mine are plain, and nowhere near as exciting as the one that Andre manages to import! Oh well, I'll make sure I visit her too, to enjoy her variety!

hi anne
thought i'd drop in with a little fat laughing buddha to pop on your front step - make sure you put him on a little pedestal - i believe it is bad luck if he sits on the ground. i'm envious of your beautiful western australia - have always wanted to visit, but may need to wait until the kids have left school and life isn't quite so busy, as i really wnt to take my time to look around. thanks for your cheerful posts evry day - i look forward to reading you!

Hello Mariane - thanks for calling in to see me, sorry I was at work at the time. Thank you so much for the buddha. He is now happily sitting atop a pedestal at my front door looking out into the cul-de-sac at the people walking past to the park next door.
Thank you also for your lovely comments, they were really appreciated. Did you go into flickr and see my photos of Albany. I hope you can visit here one day.

AH!!! The Beetle the Cat and the Leprechaun's hat!

Yes, I saved it picture and all to a word doc, filed it in my sudoku folder and promptly forgot about it. Does Col or Rosemary have your email- I could send it via one of them.

Oh- by the way here's a bottle of homemade lemon cordial bottled late last night in my kitchen. I've been making bottles and bottles of it this week to give to friends and colleagues at Christmas, I bought a box of lemons form the market on Sunday.

Hey Anne, I've just set up an email address that I can publish on here

fifromNT@hotmail.com

-Not very original I must admit- Perhaps just email me there and I will send you
The Beetle The Cat and The Leprechaun's Hat.

I haven't been around much due to end of year work and Christmas commitments - and also I've been deliberately restricting my time on here as hours can slip away a bit too easily.

Cheers - Enjoy the Lemon cordal

Hi Anne, I love your wreath. Just stopped by to wish you a very Merry Christmas. I'm dropping off some of my hubby's homemade peach wine (his first wine he's ever made. It came out so good, I thought I'd give you some. Cheers!
Also, I don't know how I missed your recipe of piroshkis on page 2...glad wasn't a snake... The recipe really sounds good and since I've never tried it before (actually never heard of it before coming to sudoku). I hope to have time to make it during the holidays, when things slow down here a little. I appreciate that you have shared it with us.

Hello LD, thanks for calling in and giving me some peach wine, it is very tasty, so tell your husband from me he gets top marks for it. Whoops, I think I drank too much it's so yummy.
A Very Merry Christmas to you and your family from sunny Albany. A little something for you all, a bottle of local Blueberry Wine. Enjoy!

Anne, OOOH, I love Bluberries and am enjoying your wine a lot. Sooooo Gooood, mmmm! Maybe I can talk Mike into making some next year when our Bluberry bushes are ripe and full of fruit.

I'm going to have to have my 17 year old daughter show mw how to create a page and how to post on flickr. I'm basically computer illiterate when it comes to anything new . Maybe she will during Christmas vacation.

Again, Merry Christmas from very rainy Hoquiam, Washington, USA

Anne, I have just had a peek at your Flickr page and I can see now why you are so interested in photography - the quality of your photos is outstanding. Out of curiosity, what make of camera do you use?

Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful New Year x Enjoy x

May the Peace of the Season be with you today and always.

Hi Anne, thanks for dropping by and leaving some goodies for me. Best wishes for a very Merrrry and a joyful ♥

Hi, just wondering if you are online so we can chat.
