It's going to be a bit bigger plane, Toonie, so might be able to fit all the family in. Not sure what the price will be though. Ian said to tell you he's been ploughing through the mud at the river this afternoon and is going down at sunup tomorrow - he's not even going to Happy Hour tonight so he will be fit for fishing. (I was busy getting Austar installed this afternoon - Ian thinks he'll be able to have Black Coffee and Blue Movies in the shop - hahahaha - I've put child locks on - hehehehe). He can't even change the channel on the tv.

What about the Adults Only channel? Have you got that one? You'll have the boys over for sessions all the time. Luckily our pirate setup dropped out a while ago cause me missus sat for hours watching cooking shows. Haven't bothered getting on to the new system. No time now. Too busy.

Hey Willem, maybe if you put the new digital system on Mrs Willem would watch the adult show with you instead of the cooking shows?
Maybe we should introduce Mrs. W and Ian - he watches cooking shows all summer. He's hoping to have the Adult show - but he can't have that, a new ute and new boat, can he? The Telstra bloke who did the installation said it's hard to have a pirate system now. Anyway, you'd be too busy putting up with annoying posts, wouldn't you?

Did someone say Andrew?? I would be interested in one of those flights from Maree but, Ruth, getting him to put on a bigger plane to fit the whole family in is what I call going the extra mile. You country folk are so jolly helpful. I guess that when we get to Birdsville, you will have killed all the flies, have grilled whiting cooking on the bbq, nice glass of merlot, lovely balcony to sit on and watch the sunset over the Diamantina River with bikini girls fanning me with palm branches...... You folk are so sweet!!

Did you forget the bit....."ask for the special Ruth D. price....hahahaha

Andrew

P.S. Willie - Didn't know that you were into pirate shows. R r rrr r r me hearties. Kaitlyn will bring her Wiggles DVD's to share with you...... I suppose that is what you meant by a pirate setup??
Yes - Luke's got a bigger one than me

Andrew - everything you mentioned above is o.k. (even the plam leaves for the bikini girls) - the only problem is: NO FISH!! Ian is devestated - keeps going AWOL to the fish hole (even got up before daybreak today) - nothing, not even any pelicans at the fish hole. Bad sign. He watched 12 hours of NRL on the pat TV and if he turns it on today I'll shoot the dish on the roof.

Hey Toonfish, send some more details will you please. Nearest seafood shop is Port Augusta - about 1100ks. Gee you must be bored if you were reading the Senior Cits paper.
