Well I don't know about that Tello.

You keep dropping body parts everywhere.  They are a bugga to clean up.

Hello all   :airkiss:  and welcome to Yvonne  ;D

I haven't caught up after my absence. It has been an exhausting and fun time, but has meant I was away from my computer, and I have to try and catch up with what you have all been up to. ;D   

My New Year resolution...Never Volunteer.... for anything ...even when begged on bended knee!!! Even when inducements are offered (Chocolate). :nonono: :rofl:

Centuries, it's terrific to see you again!

Together with Ewok and Loco, that makes three people whose presence I have been missing.

Centuries, about volunteering... I find myself nodding in agreement. I know I've driven myself too far frequently, and I have tended to take on too many things, but I'm going to follow the same resolution you have. Volunteering has got to be reduced.

And by the avatar you're using, you're STILL too frazzled by all the demands on your time! (*adds one more demand: Spend More Time Here!*)

Thank you everyone. It is great to be back ;D

Contessa, I thought I had learned long ago re volunteering, but I always succumb to pleas for help. Grrr!!!

The avatar will change just  making up my Libran mind...choices, choices. :musing:

I feel so "human" now I am tapping on the keys once more and muttering to myself...So "normal" :lol: :bounce: :crazy:

I will pop in tomorrow evening after the social obligations are done and dusted for the day. (I am rehearsing "Politeness-at-all-costs" and am looking forward to the day---Not :evillaugh:

Thanks, Yvonne.

Goodness, Embsie, Von and Harry all tucked up together with Logs? It sounds like an orgy. I'd better shield my eyes so as not to become corrupted.

Morning or evening everyone - so glad you all had a good day.

You lucky people - all that heat and sunshine - all we got over here was about 1 degree and the wind produced a chill factor of minus something!!!!

Am packing bags right now and coming over - anyone got a spare room???

If you don't mind snuggling up with the cat, or somehow squeezing in a mattress in the exercise room... Come on over!

But you might become quite fed up with consecutive days over 40 degrees... with a great deal of humidity...

G'day everyone

Hope all is well and the heat isn't too much for all you lucky people.

Countess mattress anywhere will do -fed up of freezing - think we should arrange some sort of exchange between us all - when you're fed up with the heat you can exchange with one of us over here for a couple of weeks and vice versa - anyone think it a good idea

Absolutely! Yes!

I was saying earlier today that I have GOT to get over to the UK for some serious traipsing around to see as many archaeological sites as possible. Not only that, but you get much better performances of opera, classical music, Shakespearean drama, etc., over there.

Centuries - I'm that kind I'll let you have a seat instead of being in the hand luggage :angel:


Countess would probably have to agree with you on the opera performances

And on the architectural/ruins front - Penrith actually has it's very own ruined castle - admittedly it's not too much to look at but it's still our very own ruined castle :castle: and you never know long long ago we may een have had our vey own :stgeorge:

Hellllooooooooooo OzRTers,

Just popping in for a quick visit.

I have a lot of messages, mail and emails to get through and can't stay today.

Also have to go and shake the sand out of everything after 4 weeks at the beautiful beach.

Happy New Year to everyone!

It did at one time but it really is ruins - if I can manage to get hold of a picture of it I'll put it on here - but I'm afraid there's ony a few walls left now.  It's only about 1/2 mile from where I live in the centre of Penrith

I stand corrected - didn't see the other pictures - was in a rush.


If you see the mini roundabout top left of the top picture - you take the left hand exit to the next r/about 2nd exit off that down to the bottom of the hill and I live there :)

Don't see those up for sale very often...

I think I may have seen one on eBay - but I'm not sure. It was a do-it-yourself job, but came with plans.  Apparently it was pick-up only as the shipping and handling cost was a bit steep - plus it would have been a bugga to wrap 2,500 half-tonne blocks of stone ....



.... Honest!  :angel:

Ohhh... Yvonne, I am on my way! *packs bag hurriedly* That is beautiful; so much is still standing. The ruins are original back to the late 15th century? Fantastic!

Brumby, I'm not fooled by that angelic exterior - not one bit. Pick-up only...

We also have lots of beautiful restaurants here and locally for you to choose from

And yes we are lucky to live near the castle - but I think because we're always around it we tend to ignore it and don't appreciate it fully.
