I'll be there because I know that I'll be available at 8/10/2005 and I have a goal

Posted: **Wed Sep 28, 2005 10:07 am**

I'll be there Birdy.

Posted: **Wed Sep 28, 2005 10:08 am**

I won't be there i will be walking amongst the springtime bloomin' tulips, in Tasmania.

Posted: **Wed Sep 28, 2005 10:11 am**

I'd like to pay a flying visit (last weekend before we fly out so I might stock up on supplies and say farewell to everyone). The one cavet is my wife and I are on standby, our friends have twins due that weekend and we are babysitting their other two children, in the case of labour on that weekend. I'd say I'd be allowed to visit for a max 1hr more likely 30 minutes, and not at all if the twins are on their way.... :oops:

Posted: **Wed Sep 28, 2005 10:43 am**

alas - you keep having these on our weekends away! We'll be picking up the boy from Taree (end of school holidays)!
I'll be there in spirit though (more likely a nice port than spirits, but you know what I mean

).
