Izzie.....I hope you feel better, sweetie!

Big hugs!

Morning try, brook and jpb. More hugs for Izzieliz. Another hot one here today but looks like relief later in the week. Dutchy when do you finish daylight savings?

DDXX, our daylight saving finishes at 3am, 6th Aprikl, 2008. Yours is the same as ours.

Hi deedee..... I vaguely remember what it feels like to be hot outside! Soooo ready for summa-dat!

Here it was cloudy and 40ish. This morning I went on a little 5 mile run and it was about 35 then. Which felt more like about 65 by the time I finished. Still ........ I'm ready for spring.

Enough already.

Sorry shipmates; but somebody has to grease the wheels of commerce, and I guess I'm the grease monkey!

Yeah brook - I am definitely ready for winter with lots of rain. Try - its just cause you are soooo good at greasing and oiling and smearing. :wink:

Practice Dee Dee, they say; a relaxation massage is a whole-body hands-on treatment that uses pressure, stroking and rubbing of your skin to help you relax: Flip over and let's see if it works!

Flipping!!!!!

On my! It's working for me…is that a tattoo you have down there?

How did that get there??? :wink:

Woops; it was just a slip of the tongue - what is it?

I think our try has mesmerized ddxx who has probably fallen asleep after that vigorous work out.

Now where is our beloved Izzie, have not sighted her anywhere, come on Angel give us a sign you're thinking of the crew, they miss you.

Ship's Log!

Thanku all - I am here and with y'all.

It was very lovely to see our Stormy, TTHun and Alex24… taking the helm today from our Indeedee and Bear. It appears overnite that the Bear may have got grizzly after shooting himself in the foot whilst playing with his pistol - she saw him coming and tackled him well!

Then I discovered that our Indeedee is an DDXX-ozy-me and so talks my language....

X 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whilst I was on shoreleave today, lounging around on the beach, I also met some "Jackass Penguins". These guys were brilliant and paraded by me with their chins up………..



So, I got to thinking…. and from the jackasss penguin parade - chin up to…

PaPaDD - hope you're k
TTHun - shoulder better
Stormy - keep Stormin'
Alex24… - time waits for no man
Bear / Indeedee - (cool) your way
Babbling - (warm)
Mismi - (peace and calm and hugs to Sboy)
JPB - (don't work too hard)
RH (xox)
Blue/Pink (aye-aye)




Crew - you are the best

The other way around.

Your the best.

I'll second that, they come no better!

Had to nip out for a while - back on board again. Try - great massaage. Welcome Izzieliz - back to your chirpy little self again I see. Sorry you were having a bad one.

Sometimes this thread reminds me of a song from the musical "Mystery of Edwin Drood". Here are a few lines:

Hey there crew

Just wanted to say thanku for your kindness - you guys make my beautiful days much more beautiful - just knowing you're there and being around you - makes my world a much brighter, happier and warm place and makes me smile BIG You really do. You just don't know how much Actually - it can't be measured. I Thank you all for that.

Just a little sore today - but no worries - a sturdy laptop and med-upped joints so - happy days.



So - Indeedee girl ...................... how was the massaaaaaaaaaaaage hunni. Can hear the aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh - so must have been relaxing a? I'm sure he was the best ever :wink: . Good for you girl - you deserve some pampering.

Hows MaMa and PaPa ~ well, I hope and PaPa recovered - oh..... and did you get the pots you were looking for. More pics girlie - I'd love to see how you develop the "drought proofing" garden. I so wish I could send you all some rain - or even just a little cool would be good a?. I can remember the heat in Kakadu for 2 months - and, when we weren't doing all the backpacking things, we had to stay in the mobile-homes with the air con on all the time. It was soooooo hot - and we were heading for the rainy season - so humid too (ugh). What a place tho - Twin Falls, Yellow Waters (Cooinda) - swimming with the fresh water crocs (heck that water was cold ) - sat on Corocdile Dundees tree (as you do when you a packer ) and climbed to the top of the falls. GOSH - UNBELIEVABLE EXPERIENCE.

OH MY - doing that reminiscing thing now........and gonna have to post you pics. Oh you poor crew - nevermind a? You'll get to see IzzieLizzieOzzieGal 20 years ago! (Did the big grin thing then too - just took me 20 years to find it again and start living my life like tomorrows the last). That's actually quite happy - reminiscing at this point - well, for me! (The Bear knows where I am - quite shy really with me pics - yeah, who'da thought it a!)

Anyways, won't be today coz not moving downstairs again today - but tomorrow - BEWARE - Kakadu revisited

OH HEY - Bear! As you have been the Best Bosun a ship could ever wish for - it's theme time for Wednesday choice should you wish to take the mission before you. Now I believe theres is "Big Prix" event going on in OZ - let's not got there a? So......food for thought...St. Patricks Day (love those Irish!!!!!) - Easter, Spring............or what is the wish Mr Bear - the choice is yours, just yours, as one of the Sunday Award Winners. The Brothers can have a conflab later and if they're opposed - well, they can have their "duelDEVIL" party next Wednesday. :wink:

What say you Bosun.............

You reckon that's OK Indeedee - think the Bear will come up with a great theme - just hope the crew will be around - but if they can't make it - they'll be in the spirit of the the motto "Live, Laugh and Love! No matter where the are.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo OH BEAR......OH BEAR...... are you there love.......................




Wandel - I love your posts....

when I come here - this is what I feel....

May you be blessed with good friends.
May you be a good friend to yourself.
May you be able to journey to that place in your soul
Where there is great love, warmth, feeling and forgiveness.
May this change you.
May it transfigure that which is negative, distant or cold in you.
May you be brought into the real passion, kinship and affinity of belonging!


Life changed for me in January - I've been truly blessed! Guess you folks all know when I met you a? :wink:

We loveeeeeeee you Izzie! I don't think there is a person here that doesn't wish that they had you in their life....off the forum, as well. I bet you make an awesome friend.

Sleep well
