Still here Debsy!! Don't write me off yet! How are you? Are you still coming on the 3rd? The board has been a bit dull lately so I've just been window shopping. There's been too much going on at home the past month or two so I've really been in the mood either. Anyway, I'll see you on the 3rd, hopefully.

Steve.

Only 3, but Jockney is very loud :D

We had about 20-30 last time but I've advertised it on adelaidebrits on yahoo as well so I'm not sure. Should be a good laugh anyway.

Yep, there are quite a few who bring kids. There is a garden out the back with swings and things. My two will be there as well.

Don Pleasance signed off a few weeks ago. He said he had had enough of this site and that he wouldn't be posting again. Sad I know as his posts were really balanced and informative.:(

I think the others are still posting, but not that frequently it seems. Maybe the trolls have got to them.

Hi debsy,
I think that people don't bother to post anymore, because after a good thread is started (take jackies for instance on her 1st year in Oz), and get to about page 5 and it just becomes nothing but absolute rubbish. 'I'm here, your there bla bla bla'. And now the late departed Wilf is back...... Whats the point of trying to have a view.
I look and think... I will answer to that thread.....no I won't, they will be back on it tomorrow.
To be honest, I think most people feel that way, I certainly do.
I seem to just answer the 'well done' and 'congratulations' now, it is the safest.
Lets hope that August will bring some pleasant changes.

Whisky
