Actually Bwenden, he WAS the bad boy… But he did a really bad, bad boy impression… Hee hee….

Not quite what my mother expected, but she’s grown to love him.

Me? Love him to bits, even when he sh*ts me to tears.

The classic, met him at a party… Friend of a friend. Didn’t like him at first. Took me 6 months to realise what I was missing out on. Luckily he wasn’t nabbed. Finally came to my senses… He thankfully kept pursuing me…

Steph.

Ha ha ha!! Calvin!! I was kinda like you. I rang the venue place that we had booked in Perth, told them politely where they could stick their venue.

Hubby left a message on parents answering machine wedding was cancelled, told my parents and then walked out. Basiclly we didn’t talk to anyone about it until we had sorted out what we exactly…[Read more]

I think you guys have got the wrong idea. It isn’t a day, it’s a week, and when I say recourse, I don’t mean sue, I mean complain to someone about them! The compensation wouldn’t be for me, but the vendor. They’re the ones who have really been inconvenienced. NOt really us. We are just super annoyed becuase they said it WOULD go through on the…[Read more]

We might get down that way mid year. So many family commitments coming up! First grandchild is due in a couple of weeks so all that hooha will be happening. Not me having kiddy either…

We used to stay down in Miami occassionally. That was always good fun down there. Fond memories as a kid…

Yeah, Dawesville Channel was brilliant when they cut it through. I remember crabbing down there was fab a couple years after. Crabs everywhere!!!

Even so, I still find it really smelly. THen again, same can be said of the seaweed up here in Geraldton. We cop a whiff of it rotting every now and then at school. Smells like a super rotten fart……[Read more]

I find Mandurah a bit smelly…

I know, I know, that has absolutely nothing to do with investing, well it kinda does… I wouldn’t want to live somewhere smelly.

Marisa, where do you invest? I mean the old parts of Mandurah have pretty much had nothing done to them. My aunty lives in Coodanup and that area is still really stagnant. And I not…[Read more]

Oh gatsby,
a small “win”… At least the issue has been documented that you had a problem etc, so if it comes up again, it’s already there.

Just remember, the sun will always rise tomorrow.

Oh, and Blondie, if a venue won’t cater for what you want, it isn’t worth the trouble. Find another place. Try getting out of Brisbane a little and see what’s around the outskirts. Maybe look for the caterer first then the venue, coz most people remember the food and not really the venue.

You have crap food, everyone remembers that!!!

Success…[Read more]

Sonja,
sounds like a similar story to mine!! Maybe not to the same extent but close!

Blondie, you and your fiance are the ones who will ultimately remember you wedding the most. As for everyone else, screw them!! My hubby and I only wanted a small wedding and we had it all worked out when we were on holiday in South Africa.

When we got home,…[Read more]

CRJ is on teh right track. Applying to get a copy of the plans and building approvals from the council is relatively easy. They cost between $20-70 depending on the council.

Hee hee, or you could be in our position where our house is pre-council keeping records, so even if we put something up, council can’t take it down coz they can’t prove…[Read more]

Bloody hell! I saw photos tonight on the news! I haven’t seen Perth that thick with smoke since CALM cocked up one of their “Controlled Burnoffs” years ago!

I’m glad we not there anymore! Mind you, there was a massive fire up our way last weekend that was right behind a mates house! A couple of houses from where we USED to live… Thankfully…[Read more]

Oh deer….

Our story is romantic but stupid at the same time. We had been travelling on a round the world ticket and were on a Topdeck tour round Europe. We were in Rome (Of all places!!) and had had a marvellous day at the Colliseum, the forum, Vatican city (WE SAW THE POPE!!!WOOHOO!) and Sistine chapel.

The previous day we were…[Read more]

Hey that was a typo!!!

P.s… It’s copyright people… Oh dear, everyone’s spelling is going out the window!!

Same as definitely is NOT definately. It is finite. Remember that…

Jsut being picky…

Just thought I’d add this about air cons. My nanna’s got a split system in her area of my parents house (No where else has air con!!) and she had it going almost continuously last winter (On warm of course!) due to her being rather ill.

My mum new how to maintain the filters, blah, blah, but wasn’t aware that if it was running practically 100%…[Read more]

Water!? Surely it’s vodka in there!!

Kwilko, it has been very windy though. Wicked…[Read more]
