Have a safe and happy trip, Shaunna!

Thanks Doc, I sure will 

Congrats Shaunna. 

Everyone gets to go to Tassie.....and I'm a Tasmanian who has never been there...

Have a great 4 weeks!

Yeah, have a safe trip, and when you get there, give her new ladyship a big kiss for me.

Oh, and while the cat's away I'll be sure the 'mouse' doesn't play.

First off, I'll cancel all his hospital appointments.  I'm sure he makes the excuse to get his toe checked out so he can go chasing nurses... tho being part Hopalong Cassidy just now, I doubt he's gonna to catch any, but as they say, it's the thought that counts.

Nah, we'll be right. I'll order takeaway served by topless waitresses... and employ a sexy au pair to wash the dishes.

And I'm going down in about 4 weeks time for a couple of weeks or so.  Going to help a mate with a few things while I take a break from things here. It has been around 10 or 11 years since I was last there, and I've not been away anywhere since, so it'll be great to get away and catch up with me ol' mate Debbie, as well as Bianca and the new bub.

Oh, and BTW, you can't be classified as a taswegian if you've lived on the mainland more than two years and had your second head removed.

I was born on King Island..... so I'm a Taswegian but left there after 2 weeks for Mildura...

Thanks Uvah

naww poor Jafo as I fly over Melbourne I will wave to you lol

hahaha, yeah I know you would I hope  the ladies of the night clean up after themselfs or I will sack you two

Yes, but your second head was removed AND you've lived on the mainland longer than two years.

No 2nd head + the 2 plus years = Mainlander by association.

Seriously, though, I heard that King Island is a beautiful spot and wanted to go there for a squizz while I was living in Tasmania.  However, fate had different plans for me and I never got there.... with a move back to Queensland becoming necessary before I could make the trip there. 

Whether or not I get there this time around remains to be seen.  I'll have a bit to do in and around Launceston, but as it is I'm risking ear and vertigo issues flaring up by flying to Tas to begin with, and flying is the only feasible way to visit King Island for the day. 

In any event, I'll be drugged up for the trip down to Tas, for vertigo and the associated travel sickness, plus pain meds for when my right ear pops somewhat painfully, as it always does when I travel by plane anywhere.  That's why I've not gone back for a visit before now, but now a mate needs some help that I can provide.

Okay, so Shaunna has landed safely on the Apple Isle and is with Bianca and the squirts, Abel and Abatha.

All is well and the kids are great.  I imagine she will update everyone soon, but right now Shaunna is so excited about being with Bianca and the grandkids.

Yeah, just got a call from Shaunna to say she's okay and settled in okay, so I thought I'd pass on the news, as brief as it is for now.  However, there will be more detailed news [and photos] in the next few coming days.

Oh, and do I miss Shaunna already?  Nah, Not me [we're divorced fer fech sake], but Steve is and he's suffering big time with withdrawal symptoms.  I'm not saying that he's crying uncontrollably over photos over her, or anything, but I did catch him earlier today sobbing while he sniffed around her underwear drawer.

Nah, not really, but close.

Seriously, we do have a bit to do around here to keep us busy, but we also have a couple of pooches who need some TLC right now.  Buddy, my bestest little man, has a skin irritation that makes him constantly itchy that needs bathing and treatment at least 3 times a day, then Dazza, who has similar issues but for different reasons, and needs to be bathed in a special solution daily.  Thing is, we're not spending big bucks on commercial treatments when doing so. No, we are using home remedies made up from ingredients we mostly had here [lavender & eucalyptus oils, Epsom salts and Chamomile tea, etc] and it is really working... not to mention saving big bucks on expensive vet prescribed medications.  Yeah, anyone with dogs as pets should see this.... could save big bucks keeping them healthy.

Anyway, in getting back to Shaunna, yeah, I do miss her... married nor not.  We we've always been the best of friends and always will be... cos I'm so fechen fantastic... and so is she.
