fii from NT

Fii and family!
May 2008 fulfil your dreams!

Hi Fii, Responding to your comment today about wind power; Texas and California are the biggest producers of wind power in America, if not the world. Even T. Boone Pickens, who is a notable oilman here in Tx., is investing in the development of the technology to transport the wind power to other parts of the country. good news for alternative energy sources.

Dropped in - have never been to Darwin and just wanted to check out the scene up there. Stunning sunsets - what a paradise for photographers. Look forward to seeing a few more of your hometown photos.

Hi Fi
I read your recipe for lemon cordial on Gail's page.. hope you don't mind if I steal it! A question though, as I am not a great cook.... When you bring the mix to the boil, do you just put it on high heat until it reaches boiling, or is it more complicated than that?

I have been reading about the bad weather in Darwin and am hoping that it leaves you unscathed!

Hi Fi!
Thank you for the info on the recipe. I will find some bottles and give it a go! I'm south coast NSW, about an hour south of Wollongong.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, but I couldn't find the back door until I got an e=mail from Canuk Greg. I thought that because I couldn't get on through the main page, that I didn't have access at all.....

Hi again fii, thanks for the visit. lOve your youtube about the car! HAAA! that was amazing. my youtube is actually from a pleasant place in my little Texas town. We have enjoyed Blue Hole and other rope swings in the area (those people in that are not my family). But no crocs here, whew!
Excuse my geographical ignorance but what does NT stand for?
That picture on my page is my granddaughter and me. She is one yr. old now AND I will be the gran of her and her little sibling come July. It's awesome!
Visit me anytime!

fii,I keep telling my friend who lives in Adelaide to get me a job (along with a work visa and air fare -one way) in Australia, but I think she thinks I am kidding. In our political climate here these past few years and esp. now, I am pretty serious! Someday, when I pay down some of my very expensive children's college loans, I am coming to visit as many places as I can on your awesome continent!

by the way, your avatar did come through; it is lovely. and thank you, my grandie is absolutely grand!

Gday fi, just popped in for a splash in the pool. Imagine my disappointment to find that it was a victim of the crash!
The first time I ever saw the photo of Bluey the wreck, my comment was that with a bit of wire and an ounce of luck, I know some bush mechanics that could get it going! I loved that TV show about them, they are so ingenious.

Hello Fi. Totally enjoyed you Bush Mechanics video. Noticed those boys were entering WA, maybe going down to Albany?
How is everything? Lot's of snow here, but that's typical Canada. Cheers!

Fi
and was going to suggest have you thought of using fi_ from NT. as in Fi underscore? or _fi, just a thought lol
Have a great one.

Thanks for the Bush Mechanic, Fi. Great fun!

Good morning Fii, I guess it took me all this time to get to your page. to Sudokuland, I am fairly new myself since I joined in October. Saw your posting today and felt I had to say HELLO. Hoping to catch you again soon.

fii
I found your page today, and, as this is my first visit to your room, I have left one hundreweight of Jack Frost brand ice cubes in your fridge. They should provide for your esky and chill your drinks. Jack Frost ice is guaranteed to last, even in the hottest of climates.

Hi fii,
Thanks for visiting My Page.
I enjoyed your U-tube of the car escapade. Obviously you have abandoned M.O.T. testing in NT.
By the way, I 'come from' Yorks because I was born there, and I 'come from' E.Sussex because I live there now. I suppose, actually, I 'come from' an egg, add before that I was probably some kind of wave of consciousness in another dimension.

Hello Fii - I am stopping by to wish you and your family a Happy Easter.

You have some very awesome pictures!

That was a nice photo from Kakadu on the "tough" page, Fi.

Hello Fi. I was overdue for a message to you, so I came on your page and checked out your photos. Great pictures, and I left a few comments. Hope all is well. How goes your fall travel session?

Awesome photos, Fi. Thanks!

Hi Fi - you guessed right. I'm a sandgroper who has been dragged north - although to Hong Kong rather than Ca. I spent August of '95 in Darwin and saw a bit of Litchfield and Kakadu NP's, and quite a lot of the Casino's outdoor entertainment on Sunday afternoons! Much fun. HK is ok - but I'm still getting used to it....I REALLY miss my garden.
Love the you-tube with the Eagles jumpers! Ciao, PJay.

Hi Fi, just noticed your comments on a couple of my pictures, thank you. I was just about to start my 3rd year of nursing! That dam is beautiful! Even when the temperature has been over 40* it's still cool in the water, because it's totally shaded in summer. Last weekend I noticed some of the ferns on the side where I was standing, were very brown. This is probably the only time of the year (& spring as well!) they get direct sun and we had a couple of days over 30*. Not so today - it's pouring (no tennis!) & 18* outside. Just shut the back door because it's only 19* inside!!

Hi Fi, I am totally useless at remembering all the old crew who were around. Bucko was fun wasn't he, it is strange how people just disappear and are forgotten. I was in touch with QRP but now she too has gone from here, although she did come back once into the chatroom which was delightful. Love the photo's by the way wonderful shots.

Fi
not sure if your back from your Island getaway, but just wanted to say "ello, and missing you". Hope your having fun.

Hi,

Is the photo on this jigsaw page yours? If so, you've raised many questsions and comments! Check it out and let us know....

http://jigsawonline.net/M25-5-2008-jigsaw.aspx

No problem, Fi. I find that I've already forgotten what the picture was about myself, LOL. Thank you for the reply, at any rate. I know all about being busy on the job. Have a good day! Kay

Welcome back Fi. On the jigsaws today there is a photo that might be yours.

Thanks for that Fi. Wasn't sure as I am from South Aus, where we sat dArby, living in Vic, where they say dErby!
Having heard from an NTer about WA, I'm now a very confused person!!!

Fi, hope all is well with you. Will try and team up a chatroom session soon. xx

Thought your tiny yelp tinny whelp comment and said so on Medium.

Hi fii! I've seen you around the jigsaw page a time or two, and admired your photos. Thank you for the compliments on my artwork!

Fii - just visited your gallery - what beautiful pictures! What is your job that you get to travel to these remote areas? I loved the Darwin sunset.

Hey fi. I'm sorry but I really can't remember whether or not I replied to your message. Please let me know. I have it saved on my pc in case.

Fi, for the fantastic photos. I especially liked the sunsets and the Daly River crossings pix.

Fii, Thank you for sharing the photos of the places you visit. What a beautiful part of the world you live in! Makes me want to see it!!

Hia Fii
Great pictures, check mine out when you get a chance, I worked in the Territory for almost 15 years, the communities I worked on are Wadey/Port Keats, south of Darwin.
Owartilla/ Canteen Creek,south east of Tennant Creek and Titjikala south of Alice Springs.
What sort of work do you do ?
I was an airline agent in Wadeye
Store manager in Owartilla
womens centre co-ordinator in Titjikala.
I also worked in Alice Springs in a store called Mabantua.

Fi, I just took a a look at your gallery & enjoyed your photos so much. The landscapes are lovely, but I think my favorite might be the children jumping rope! Thank you for sharing your eye for beauty with us.

Fii, you have some wonderful photos.

Whoa FII, what a harrowing experience! I would have been sitting on the roof of the car, yelping all the way!

Only wish that pose was me!
That is my 13 year old niece who is truly a "dancing queen"!
I had a youtube video of her for awhile...may change my youtube back to that.
Blessings to you, Fii

Oh, and what a fabulous occupation, Fii!

Hi Fii! This earthquake doesn't follow a pattern for more according to the seismologists. The big active years were 1971 to 1994 then it quiet down. If this one isn't followed by another biggie then it's just one movement not a series.
Thanks for caring
