get acussed of being a computer cabbage for spending so much time sat reading,writing on this forum...
I try to pass it off as purely "research type stuff darling" as Im the one whos supposedly in control of operations on this front (which is questionable if I try to ring addelaide on Aussie Day ...DOH...!) Although I have to say it has been a great help so not to knock it on the info front at all...far from it...but he has come in and read the forums over my shoulder to know it isnt all immigration questions...

I just wondered if any one else gets this type of slack...WBB got to be a prime candidate...or does he only do this stuff in work time...

I am you :scared: (the scared bit was for you bye the way )

Missus went ot bed 2 hours ago (another night without then, double D'oh). I waited up to phone a reqruitment agency.

Peppi,

For a few days I have been suffering the over the shoulder syndrome "you can't say that" and "you should say this".

Got the better of me in the end so I set up a profile for the wife(Bix da Boss) and told her "now you can say what you want and leave me alone".

So that's how you solve the problem - or is it ?

In her very first session she has dropped 11 postings onto an unsuspecting Expats.

What have I let loose ?

peppi

yeah nooooo... cant let him loose on here... the man who hated PC's found that bloody E Bay...!! cant stop him buying stuff..n its like "darling its all gonna have to go again if we emigrate"
so no I havent introduced him to this site...YET...!

Bix

Ah eBAY.

The secret is to get them to sell something.

Once they have had the thrill of seeing their item bid for and concluding a sale - well it's like fighting fire with fire.

They will be ransacking your house and selling everything they can but it will make the move to OZ easier and cheaper !!

peppi

Oh no... 4 bikes in the garage and counting...and the last one he past off as buying for me...! I aint been out on it yet...next saturday...get grubby..dirt bike riding..he took it out last week...!

podgypossum

I have hte best of all worlds... kiwiman has desktop PC, i have the laptop.

Whe i am not out with the Adelaide wives, i catch up with UK friends and family on here. I also have fun with friends in NZ....

No...i'm not just parked in here staring at expats 24/7.. i know some like to think so..

BTW..i just got all top 10 last posts on the board at 3.52pm

I'm a sad git!!!

I seem to spend a lot of time getting poked in the shoulder, and then hearing the words "you know what you should have said......"

bundy

I just get the boss looking over my shoulder...well, trying to at least. However, I am very quiet at work at the moment and she did tell me to 'amuse myself' while it is so quiet....I rest my case

Polly, I hope you can manage yo pull yourself away from the computer on Saturday, so you can fix that ball & chain firmly to The Bloke

WBB

i do post a hell of a lot from work but i post in equal proportions from home.......yes i have no life.

my husband keeps coming in and saying "are you talking to your imaginary friends again?"

Bix da Boss

Peppi dis is da BOSS here!

Why should he have all the fun!!
First time since we've had the PC's (10+ yrs) that I've actually sat down and used one for more than 2 hrs - unlike other members of my family who sit there all day and night

And - unlike him I won't be posting any more messages after this one for days as just haven't got the time being a WOMAN
Have to look at ebay instead!!!

Pollyana

I feel withdrawal symptoms already....in keeping with tradition (and because I am out partying the night before) I am not spending the night at home, but in a motel with my mate. Hence, I may not be able to get to a computer from Friday lunchtime onwards........ARRRGHHH!!!! Anyone got a laptop they can lend me?

Servant24kids

I get the comment around bedtime "perhaps you wouldn't get so many headaches if you spent less time on the PC."

I'm doing research! This is our future! Somethings are more important than others ...
