I survived the arduous trip.......I did not get lost at the Sydney airport, because I knew I had to change terminals so therefore followed the 'Terminal 3' signs. So easy huh? and besides I had insurance - I overheard a lady on the plane saying she was continuing her journey from Terminal 3
I only have 20 mins to get on here and have a little say (tomorrow I will do a 'real' post - with pics!)
I am in hot demand for the whole day and evening - it is my birthday :) I am 55 today. Woo hoo.
Oh Rose! Celebrate your uterine emancipation! You Go, Girl! Best wishes for your day!
ReplyDeleteTamara, you do put such a big grin on my face!! I had a wonderful time yesterday, I really thought I'd be posting today but I'm in hot demand again today!! So the lesson learnt is that I will not make promises about "when" I will post. I've about ten minutes before I'm being whisked away again so thought I'd leap on here and reply to you and hopefully zip about and visit my blog friends.
DeleteHappy birthday Rose! Great way to celebrate in the Northern sunshine. Glad you survived our deadly Sydney airport black hole. HUGS x
ReplyDeleteP.S. that is the neatest street I've ever seen. Do the inhabitants clean it with a toothbrush?
Thanks Typist!! I know!! isn't the street so neat and tidy and clean? Hehehehe, there's a neighbour two doors up who mows EVERY DAY and I"M NOT KIDDING. Maybe HE does the toothbrush thing ;)
DeleteNow THAT, dare I say, is anal. I'm sure grass doesn't grow that fast, even in the tropics.
DeleteHope your Mac post is going well. Do it NOW! :) I've challenged myself to do a post a day this week! ARGH!
Typist, hehehehe, as I type he's at it again!! I've discovered its not so much the Mac as learning to use this silly thing under the keyboard that isn't a real mouse. This is not MY new Mac, its the son-in-laws so I'm using and practising to see if I want one or not. You shame me with your post a day! Show-off...
DeleteCatch ya!
Happy Birthday to YOU, Rose.... Sounds like you are going to have a wonderful time... Hope you have a terrific Birthday... You are so YOUNG. I'll be 70 in August...
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
Dearest Betsy - "young", ooooh that has a nice ring! Now Betsy you and George epitomise "young"!! :)

DeleteHi Rose,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that I wasn't able to follow your mesages as much as i wanted. You know how it is: busy-busy-busy ;-)
I hope that you're having a great time right now. I am very curious about the stories that you will come up with and the pictures that will come along with them.
I like the way how you practice your maro skills. Hope to see more of that soon. And remember; macro photography is really difficult! ;-)
See you later. Have a good time!
Gert Jan
