BELATED HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO TO EVERYONE
Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening World -
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'M BACK!
Hello Crew - I'm back on board - and tho my stay away was a little longer than anticipated - thanks to some nerves causing me to become a little frayed around the edges
(will post about that on another thread) I have now returned - sense of humour intact and ready to yap.
Now firstly - I must say thank you to everyone who has been wishing me well and sending me all the vibes - they worked

- and I know from reading that y'all have kept me safe in your thoughts - so thank you muchly. Thanks Rockhead for the music - you speak my kinda language mate. Really. Secondly - welcome home TTH - can't wait to see the photos - the crew were missing their beautiful nymph - sorry to hear the shoulder was playing up again (on a bus - tell us more!

) but glad that Cancun was good for you. Really need to hear your stories girlie.
Girls - thank you for your hugs - missed yabbering with you all - so hope you'll be around soon. Mismi (oh have missed your yip yap yop hun) and Tai - I see the boys have been doing a little bit of swash-buckling - think we need to get them sorted a? and back to scrubbing the decks!
And Boys - well, what can I say? You do make me chuckle. Constantly. Where'd that Kicky go
all talk a?
You are all the best medicine and after just reading the first few pages have been diverted from the pain to thinking about happy thoughts (meds help too - but yours is the best med).

Need to catch up on the the threads - but hope that everyone is alright and has had a happy few days. (Big Red - think you have a story to tell about "joints" - is that right? - hope ur k mate too?) Need to check on Alex24something - he must be frozen up in the Midwest somewhere - hope he's k!. Uncle Larry's been quiet too - probably listening to his 60's and 70's music - bless him.
I do think I need to address Baby Blue first up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BlueBoy you were wondering how large the "enlargements" were. Oh hunni - you have no idea how close to the mark you are. Just you wait and see
It so heartens me at this point that I can say to the Master
. Close
but Try Again and no

Take a look -
Big Bertha Fusion FT-3 ---- Fusion of Izizi'e feet resulting in:
460cc of carbon composite and titanium construction ?- science that allows Callaway Golf engineers to move an amazing amount of discretionary weight and put it where you need it most. -
just what Izzie needs:
IZZIE'S BIG BERTHA FUSION CLUB FEET:
IZZN'T THE LIKENESS TRULY AMAZING?[/[/color]B]
So sorry BabyBlue that the enlargements may not have been of the "Parus major" variety - but I am sure that my enlargements will have made you smile.
Think you really deserve a little peck for that one a?
Oh and girlies - just in case you were wondering about my delightful new footwear - now, you know, I really don't like to boast at all, and I would really not want you all to get green with envy - but hey, you are so gonna love my new shoes
.. and no - you can't borrow them just yet, well, maybe - it you really really really want to I may let you
Now are you ready - don't want you to have too much excitement all in one day

IZZN'T I LUCKY - I get to wear 2 different shoes each day - and am now in fashion-statement-setting as my next employment!
Now don't all ask at once to borrow my new shoes
. all in good time. No worries - Cinderella will go to the ball again and be the dancing queen!
Finally and very importantly - thanku Bear for keeping all aboard updated with my progress. This Koala has certainly made a big impression with my best friend and has been keeping her posted as to what the crew has been up to. The Aussie Boy takes a well deserved pat on the back - and methinks he needs a peck too.
So, my lovelies - and yes - Kicky - that includes you even if you wanna see the girlies in a fight
- "mud" I presume
Thanku bigtime - and hope we'll yabber soon! 
Need to zzzzzzzzzz a while = catchy'all all laer
