I thought they all had pictures of Kangaroos on them  ;D   ;D  Probably means the same think over there - I remember the lass who said she was expecting to see Kangaroos walking down the streets of Sydney when she came to Australia  ;D

Was it you who said that Barbara  :o  :o

Could well have been Barbara.  Certainly wouldn't have been her sensible mother.   Makes you wonder how some mothers do have 'em?

Hi all,
I think it could be interesting that the Brissy meet is the same day as the Melbourne meet, how can we do some kind of hook up?
The meet is at my place, so computer access no problem for us.

Hope you all have a great time, I think our numbers are somewhere between 20 and 30 now  :o  . . . and did I mention it is at my place  :o

Wasn't it at your place last time Margaret.........you're a sucker for punishment     ;D ;D ;D

I think there's only a few of us going to meet at Southbank in Brisbane....we should have the weather for it in October.

A link up, the only thing I can think of at the moment is by phone.......Unless Karen has a Lap Top!!!

Hi Tephra,
yep it was at my place last year.
And it was such a success I thought, why not, again. 8)

We have just added on a deck, so hopefully I can accommodate the mob ;D

I have a few projects on the go for the meet, but shhhh, some of it is secret.

Phone sounds ok.  Laptop too, but it would be great if we had visuals. :-\
