Shazza, my parent's old house was in Parnell so I grew up there but have flatted and lived in the CBD, out your way in Titirangi, Grey Lynn and again in Parnell.

Binkie old bean, you haven't been had have you? I'd send an email asking where the CDs are.

 

[BinkieBaumont]

Im Guessing it must be the weather as I am waiting on several deliveries from different sellers, I have only been ripped of once and that was over a pair of Jodhpurs from the UK

Binkie: Hope your CDs turn up soon

Also, I just wanted to wish all the best to any FLers up in Queensland who have been or are going to be affected by the terrible flooding.

We're all thinking and praying for you down here.

And from me, also.

My mother lives in Brisbane, but at a very high point, so their house was never in danger. She's making sandwiches for one of the food stations now.

Happy Australia Day to my fellow Aussie Loungers. I hope you enjoy the day.

 

[shazzabanazza]

Happy Australia Day!

 

[lolly_loisides]

During February Blue Mountains Tourism is holding a 1920's festival. Here's the website, it might be fun & I thought a few Loungers might be interested.

 

[Benny Holiday]

That festival looks great Lol. Some events are a tad expensive (or maybe it's just tha tmy wallet's lean as a screen after the main seal died in my motor), but I'd like to get up there for at least one. Thanks for the info!

Bit of classic Kiwi comedy here you lot.

We grew up with Billy T. James but I reckon the Aussies here will get this and have a good chuckle about it:
