What a beautiful day it is here in Sydney! I really need to see you girls, I've missed you.

Bec where have you been? You haven't been on msn in a long time :(

Also I wanted to bring your attention to this lonely thread (http://www.bubhub.com.au/community/forums/showthread.php?t=125016)!

So whose up for the parenting expo? Hubby wants to go and I figure that between the two of us we're likely to remember either twice the amount, or twice as likely to remember anything at all :laughing:

If anyone else wants to meet up on Saturday PM me :)

Beany
02-10-2007, 19:15
I'll probably go on the Saturday with Noodle if no one else is doing the Friday so I'll sms you when we get there.

(of course, with my text-speed, you'll get that message just about when we're leaving ... I'm rubbish with sms!)

Sorry I've been absent from this thread for a wittle while.

I wont be able to make any city meets for a few weeks. (DF & I will come to Meat & Wine co). :)

Missing everyone!:hugs:

Becteria
03-10-2007, 13:17
Oh i missed that show Ally, what was the gist of it?

I would be able to go on Friday to the Parenting Expo.

Hey Ash!

My computer is still on the blink, I should be back on fire in the next few days....

Beany
04-10-2007, 14:34
So anyone else doing the expo tomorrow or am I just going to bore and annoy poor Bec all by herself? :D

MilkOnTap
04-10-2007, 16:10
Soz lovelies - at this stage hubby still wants to go. But I have an inkling that he doesnt really want to go and is just saying it to make me happy :o So if thats true then I'll be going tomorrow - but if not then it'll be Saturday. I wish he would just make up his mind :S


Bec - check out the ABC website; they usually do a transcript of the show. Was pretty much a discussion about what we already know (its too bl00dy expensive to buy in Sydney and too freakin expensive to live here)

reAllytee
04-10-2007, 16:37
Was going to bite the bullet & come but alas i have a tummy bug !

Have a great time girlies & hopefully we can organise a get together next friday maybe ?????

I would love to live on the North shore.
The central coast is very affordable and the benefit of the beach helps but I would still love to live at least 40 minutes closer to the city.
Expensive though. :(

Bec- Hopefully here from you on msn soon.

Becteria
04-10-2007, 20:51
I'M BAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!

Hello lovelies!!! I have my own computer, and MSN. I have had so many withdrawals.

MWAH MWAH MWAH!

MilkOnTap
05-10-2007, 06:54
Beany - are you heading out to the expo today? I just realised that if we wait for tomorrow there might not be as many freebies! :eek: :laughing:

Beany
05-10-2007, 12:12
*blears in*

Bad night here.

Luckily for him, he slept in ... until 11am :eek:

It feels too much like hard work to go to that thing today, now. Besides, by the time we get there, we'd have to leave.

MilkOnTap
05-10-2007, 19:30
We didnt go today either - DEFINITELY going tomorrow. Anyone who wants to meet up for lunch or something, PM me :)

Beany
05-10-2007, 19:36
hopefully we can organise a get together next friday maybe ?????

I'm in :yes:

I don't know about the expo tomorrow, Ally - Noodle has work to do and I need to do a library run so we might have to go on Sunday.

But this means you have to come down for this next meet! :D

MilkOnTap
05-10-2007, 19:40
Will do my best! PM me the details and I'll try and get there :yes:

When and where is this fair, Bec?

reAllytee
09-10-2007, 21:56
Let me know whats happening & i will try to come otherwise im up for a meeting in the same place as the other week.

09-10-2007, 22:11

Ally II: Will PM you :)

Becteria
09-10-2007, 22:15
Nov 18 at Brett Park Drummoyne. Someone should organise a meet for that day (we've got CAKE STALL and Dora.) LOL

Beany
09-10-2007, 22:43
You had me at "cake" Valentine

What time's the meeting, Bec? Can you make it on Friday after it? Or perhaps we could do Thursday?

babylover111
10-10-2007, 08:35

KaM
10-10-2007, 20:25

Becteria
10-10-2007, 21:11
I know the way to your heart, Beany. :kiss:

GUESS WHAT! The meeting is cancelled. SO see you there at 11am ish?

Beany
10-10-2007, 21:18
Yay for cancelled meeting and possibility of cake!

I'll PM everyone as Ms Lazy Bones (I'm looking at you Allyoo *squinty eyes*) probably won't.

:p

reAllytee
10-10-2007, 23:28
Sorry guys ive had a few bad days so am totally unorganised !

Which also has meant i totally screwed a doctors appt which i thought was today when in fact it was yesterday so ive been booked in on Friday ... So im out :(

Really wanted to get out too ! Then again it probably saves you all from the crazed lunatic im becoming !

Have a great day girlies :yes: :gloomy:

babylover111
10-10-2007, 23:36
I'm pretty sure I'll be there, it's been so long and I've just realised the last meet I went too didn't go so well :o maybe that's why I'm subconciously not making myself available for any since then.

Beany
11-10-2007, 00:29
Ally: come down after the appointment?

Laura: there will be scones ... :D

Ashleigh<3
11-10-2007, 00:59
Thanks for the pm beans.
Ladies, you know how much I'd love to be there but I've got the little ones party planning/shopping/cleaning/etc, to attend to on Fri.

HOWEVER- I shall be in the city tomorrow if anyone wants to meet up around late lunch time for some lindt cafe experienzals?
Any takers?
:)

reAllytee
11-10-2007, 09:50
Would love to come down afterwards but i think it will be too late by the time ive been to the doctors etc.

If i can do it i will otherwise i shall see you all in 2wks !

Beany
11-10-2007, 11:00

I would have Ash, if I'd seen your message earlier. Alas, have made other boring and non-chocolaty plans now :(

KaM
11-10-2007, 14:02
Thanks for the PM guys! I think I will wait for the next meet, I realised its school holidays and I dont think that would mix with a little missy who wont sit still!!

Let me know when the next one is tho, I wanna catch up!

babylover111
11-10-2007, 16:25
Damn you Beany and mentioning scones.

Seems like working a couple of hours in the morning is until 2pm :thumbsdown: I won't be making it unfortunately.

Beany
11-10-2007, 22:25
As there are heaps of pikers (tut tut) and it just wee-ed down with rain, shall we postpone the meet until next week? The ground will be a bit squelchy tomorrow.

I'm thinking of heading shopping instead. Yay sales! :D

Ashleigh<3
11-10-2007, 23:02
I would have Ash, if I'd seen your message earlier. Alas, have made other boring and non-chocolaty plans now :(

:laughing: Poor you!

Poor me too though, I didn't stop by the lindt cafe for chocolacious indulgence. :(
But, I had a yummy nachos and stack of pancakes and half of chloe's kiddy pancakes. :laughing:
I was so full It would be hard to stomach lindty goodness.

BUT, definitely will be down that way soon.:D

Beany
11-10-2007, 23:07
Come down next week - send Chloe to terrorise Asher :D

TinyStar
14-10-2007, 07:44
That'll teach me not to come into this thread before leaving home!

Mother Duck and I had a great time in the city last friday

you guys made a wise choice tho' it was pouring rain on and off, and crowded as especially in undercover places.

Beany
14-10-2007, 13:45
Aww Tinystar, I'm sorry :(

Bring Mother Duck along next week! I'm trying to spot horns and pointy tails on mods :p One of these days, I will!

And yes, I hope there will be dessert and I hope it shall be Lindt! if the rest are being too demure and ladylike or whatever, we'll go: you me, Adam and Bec!

Beany
16-10-2007, 12:54
Cromeo: The Lindt Cafe experience will be this weekend if you're interested :) The Meet on Thursday/Friday will be at a nearby place, though, so do come along! I'm sure Allyoo will send you a PM. She won't send one to me. She's all aloof and mean like that. Beware of her.

LOL - thanks for the heads up beany.

Any meet in town on Thursday I can definitely come to as I work Mon-Thu but I have Fridays off and tend to spend the whole day frantically cleaning so I can sit on my fat bum all weekend.

Allyoo can I get a pm for the meets pretty please? Although I'm a little scared now :laughing: :laughing:
Hope none of you bite....:p

Beany
16-10-2007, 13:23
Allyoo does. :yes:

And Ash might ... but only if you ask her really nicely :D

reAllytee
16-10-2007, 13:34
Yes & there are wonderous names i would love to call Beany right now :shame:

Most people think i am scary Beany without you adding to it !

Oh & ETA if everyone can let me know by tonite which day we are doing this then i can send out the PM's by then ! Ta muchly :)

Beany
16-10-2007, 13:39
You ARE scary! Positively terrifying! And so very rude! Not friendly at all! She barely speaks a word to anyone! Never opens up about herself! Her children just sit in the corner, cowering from her in fear! I'm surprised there hasn't been a Today Tonight expose on her! "Tyranny in the Suburbs: Young mum terrorises the neighbourhood. Husband barely speaks for fear of her wrath"

The playground isn't enclosed and the water isn't sectioned off. However, the place we will sit is indoors and we can barricade the kids in. We frequently do :D

Hi lovelies!! :wave: Unfortunately i wont be able to make it today. Alethea is having breathing difficulties which could be asthma. The dr told me that she has to have all these tests done for today to find out whats going on. I hope you all have heaps of fun!:yes: I was so looking forward in going! :thumbsdown:

Boof came down with a raging fever at 10pm & slept with us the whole nite. He now has a cough so obviously seems to be getting a cold !

Oh wellls what is it they say ... Best laid plans ...

cromeo
18-10-2007, 09:15
oh noo....

I hope everyone feels better for the weekend...:fingerscrossed:

If there's anyone that can still make it to the city, I'm happy to meet up and keep them company. My boss is interstate, so I can take a little bit longer for lunch :devil6:

Beany
18-10-2007, 11:19
Good thing I checked here before leaving today :D

We're off down to the park anyway. Or IKEA. Which is like a big old park where I spend too much on not very much.

cromeo
22-10-2007, 11:31
:wave: Jaydensmum - congratulations again!!

It is quite hot today. I feel so sorry for my little man who's at his grandparents today. They don't have a/c and it's apparently meant to be 35 degrees out west :thumbsdown:

I'm doing ok. there's a/c here at work so not too disgruntled about the weather. Although I did get attacked by one of those stupid moths while going downstairs for a coffee :eek: . Looked like a bit of an idiot when I screamed :o

Anyone else having moth problems??

Ashleigh<3
22-10-2007, 11:35
Cromeo- I thought we were the only ones up here with moth problems.
I don't know how they are sneaking in.
We have been reliant on air con instead of opening windows. When the windows are opened the screens stop the moths, but why oh why are they still finding their way into light fixtures...?
Mr. vacuum is gobbling them all up!

Cromeo- I thought we were the only ones up here with moth problems.
I don't know how they are sneaking in.
We have been reliant on air con instead of opening windows. When the windows are opened the screens stop the moths, but why oh why are they still finding their way into light fixtures...?
Mr. vacuum is gobbling them all up!
I'm getting so sick of them!

I hate the little buggers!! They're ick and I have nightmares that they fly in my hair and lay their eggs and I have a whole nest of moths living in my hair :eek:

And DH told me that there's restaurants that have them on the menu as a delicacy :barf:

We have to clean through our pantry weekly.
I must warn you, they are very good at crawling inside baking products, they are little suckers for the ingredients and they grow their eggs inside.

We had a nightmare of a night a couple weeks ago.

We went through our pantry thoroughly and found even packets of flour and sugar that had never been opened, upon opening were riddled with baby moths .
:( It was awful, we had five garbage bags filled with waste. Empty pantry which was scrubbed out and then the next morning we found more hiding in the corners. :eek:

So far so good, but I assure these wiggly moths are smart! Be sure to double check your food products before you cook. :laughing:
Especially the flours/sugars/grainy foods.
They are even good at hiding between the lids of jars.:cool:

The moths are plotting world domination on my balcony.

We had 40 or so of them fall out of the washing the other day (well, they were shaken out). I have refused put any other washing out since then.

And yes, I heard about the moth-eating too. That was ... er ... interesting. Perhaps I should charge them to come clean the balcony for me: there's many a dead critter there at the moment.

Ally: after the political threads, you should find it friendly and refreshing to visit a breast vs bottle thread :D

Ash: pantry moths are a different beast to the blasted Bogong things that we are having a plague of at the moment.

Make sure you take the shelves out to clean them: they lay their eggs in the cracks and crevices.

Also, invest in hard plastic, glass and metal containers with tight lids and put your food into those.

Ah cromeo we are not alone.
The moth mastery has begun!

MOTHBUSTERS anyone?

MOTHBUSTERS anyone?

aahhh... yes... It would be a good idea if I wasn't absolutely terrified of them.

There is a building in the city with an arcade that you can cut thru to get to the other street instead of walking all the way around the block. The moths have taken over the panel on the archway. It is literally COVERED in moths. When you walk thru the arcade you can hear the crunch of them under your feet *shudder*

Ick Ick Ick!!

I'm sorry to have brought it up as I now have chills crawling up my spine...

Can we talk about something else pretty please??

There's nothing like pouring yourself cereal and finding moths squirming in them is there! On another note I was attacked by fruit flies that were settling on my car today one flew straight into my eye :shame:

I hate those moths!!!:barf: Thank goodness i havent seen one for a while. A couple of weeks ago there was thousands of them! :yes: They seem to like hiding in clothes too. Everytime i got the clothes off the line i had to shake the clothes out! :banghead: :D

:laughing::laughing::o I can't believe how severely pestered we've all been by these darn moths.
Gosh I really hate them now too.

So far, no more food pantry moths. :fingerscrossed:

*Tries to change subject*

I hope to head down for a Sydney meet soon.
I'm so scared about training it with the new little Miss. One, :( She owns me so bad now.

They are mostly gone now. I brought the washing in today and only 3 flew out as I shook the buggery out of the clothes on the balcony.

But now there's a new pestilence. Goddamned flies. They were in plague proportion on Monday - swarming in great clouds around Victoria Park,

Summer sucks.

Is there even a reputable bug spray/lotion, on the market?
Preferably something that isn't classified as poison so that way I can bathe in it?

I'm going to turn into a Howie from the benchwarmers movie, "FLIES! NOT A FAN!!!".

hi ladies,

how are you all? next time I'm attacked by flies, I'll feel so much better knowing that I'm not the only one and spare a thought for all of you.

I went out yesterday and had both hands occupied with bags and paperwork and just you try shooing flies away then! I was walking around looking like I was having spasms cause I was shaking my head so much :hair: I was so distressed about the possible germs I could have caught that I went into Max Brenner and had a brownie and an iced chocolate to boost my resistance to germs. DIdn't work though:laughing:

I'd love to gatecrash a meet, if you're having one :D

Beany
31-10-2007, 12:19
Ah Cromeo, you wouldn't be gatecrashing! Come one come all!

And bring on the cake :D

Ashleigh<3
31-10-2007, 12:26
Yes YOU! Every time I leave you, I find my pockets stuffed with goodies! :eek::p

Poor you Cromeo, luckily Max Brenner's was there to save you! You know how much money we'd make if we developed the ultimate fly swatting machine...

cromeo
31-10-2007, 13:20
Maybe a contraption you can put on like a hat...

ooo.. maybe like a fascinator with a fly swatter... That would go down a treat at the races I'm sure!

You know you've acquired a sleep deficit when you read this:

and wonder what birth control has to do with flies. And why you'd wear it on your head.
