> Good morning all. Up and about already. Not happy with this state of affairs. LOL
>
> Miss I am so sorry to hear about your nephew. Hugs to you.
>
> Well our friends arrived yesterday. The men went fishing last night and caught nothing worthwhile. So will have another try today,We went for a drive to Karumba yesterday. Got some king prawns from the trawler for $12 kg. Yummo. Will be buying more when we get up there on Tuesday.
>
> As far as I know our grandson is doing okay. Have heard nothing. The daughter in law from hell has been stirring up trouble again. So I have decided to meet up with my son in Townsville and cut ties altogether. I do not want nor need this stress. So sometimes we need to take a stand regardless of how painful it is.
>
> Other than that all is going well. Just wish I could sleep in more. Might head back to bed and see if I can sleep. Plus I really need to load more pics to show on here.
>
> Have a great day everyone. BBL


Hugs Purps and so so sorry that you have to take that stand with your son...........geez family dynamics are always changing..........i have a step daughter early 30s who invented the word Hell..........they can and do make ones life a complete misery.........One really has to wonder what happens to kids to turn out like some of them do.

Lets hope you catch some fish soon:)

Have a fab day:)

Have a great night with your friend.......nice to get out for a change of scene:)

Afternoon all :-x

Thanks for the positive vibes everyone 🙂

Computer has been playing up and no lights on the modem today rang IT and had a gutfull of the bloke saying it was my telephone cord. So I fixed it myself no I didnt kick it in the guts, lol. I just used the tools they have given me combined me and presto 1 fixed computer mental note to self ring IT as a last resort!!

Guy came round work the other day flogging $360 of hair dressing work for $79 took up the offer they did a great job the salon wasnt as nice as my usual one and they asked a lot of questions but I suppose they have to keep the conversation flowing somehow, lol.

Went to see Terminator 4 on Thursday swore on the characters Marcus is an Aussie goggled when I got home and yes indeed he is he was in Dirty Deeds. Loved the movie Arnie made a cameo but it was computer generated.

I bid on Terminator and Terminator 2, well I seen Terminator at Woolies for $9 so snapped it up but couldnt cancel the bid, no worries I got oputbid on Terminator at $15.50 and won Terminator II. Yipee!!

See Ya soon purps wondering if you might fancy lunch at the Vale? Its cheap, great food and terrfic atmosphere. Dearest meal is $14.95.

See Ya's :-x

Hi Nef.........and sounds like you are full of beans and feeling a bit better......... nothing like a new hair do to make one perk up a lot:)

Have a great weekend......i have eaten way too much:)

Evening all.

Kerry the Vale would be great. Have eaten there before and was very nice.

Well I am happy as tonight. I just had a phone call from one of my half sisters. We have not been in touch for over 40 years. So happy and she is going to arrange for a meeting with her and our other sister in August. So excited.

We head to Karumba on Tuesday for two nights. Only 72 ks away. Might do some fishing tomorrow night.

Have a nice evening all. BBL
