that is very well done indeed, I only hope the judges recognised the talent within and awarded you as such

actually havent had the watermelon vodka for a while, she's gonna be in the 40's here for the next week so may whip it up again

which photoshop are you using I use cs3 as well as lightroom which are very good programs

"lucky country" hell we are what we make it "THE BEST DAMN COUNTRY ON EARTH" with the best damn people on earth

received a lot of emails this morning from all over the place and one really got to me which I thought was apropriate for such a day

How all business phones should be answered!

'GOOD MORNING, WELCOME TO AUSTRALIA
Press '1' for English.

Press '2' to disconnect until you learn to speak English

And
Remember there only two defining forces that have
Ever offered to die for YOU:

Jesus
Christ

And
Our Australian Soldiers.

One
Died for your soul

The
Others for your freedom.

G'day mates

Happy Australia Day Weekend

Hope you all enjoy a fair dinkum Aussie beer, wine, BBQ, in good company in the great Aussie outdoors while watchin' the cricket or listenin' to John Williamson sing "True Blue" on the wireless.

Luvya's all

Dave agree with your sentiments, just one question, we know we live in God's country BUT was Jesus Australian???!!! 

And a happy Australia Day to all of you as well !!

Remember that when we say G'day, that every day is a good one in this country.

Let's keep it that way.



John and Anne

mate, was jesus australian, anybody that has wandered anywhere over gods country, which we call our very own, already knows that answer,

anybody that has ever witnessed a sunrise over a lake on the free land, anybody that has sat and watched the brolgas dance or a mob of whistling ducks coming in to a kakadu wetland, or the cicadas on a hot queensland summers eve, caught a Barra in a backwater, wandered along the murray river, meandered through the kimberleys, patted a dolphin at monkey mia, heard a didgeridoo at uluru, listened to the baby crocs call their mother from deep within a nest, a kookaburra at daybreak...................... we all know that answer

we've been lucky enough to have done all this and more, we look forward to doing more of this, because we bloody well can!!! such is the freedom afforded to us all

all I can say is "am I glad to be here, MAAAATE", YOU BET YOUR DANGLY BITS on that one

Basil you know my sentiments, if I was there you would hear me a mile away, I'd be the loudest, the most brashish and outstanding amongst the gathered crowd

monday I will have a beer with a few mates and toast a lot of things, a great family, a great country, great freinds and an everlasting debt to our warriors past and present who gave us the chance and the freedom, hopefully the recognition to enjoy all these things and more. and the nouse to actually get out and apreciate the chance we have been given through sacrifices unknown and unrewarded

the AUSTRALIAN WAY OF LIFE, gotta love it, best in the world!!! no contest!!! I'll shut up now!!!

pretty close but I know for a fact that I am the true saviour, in my younger years my father was often heard to sing out in loud prayer "Jesus Christ what are you doing now" or "jesus christ, did you break that"

Happy Australia Day to one and all.I always feel prevlleged on this day because it reminds me that I am am an Aussie by choice and not by birth.At 5.pm today I will drink a toast to Oz and to all fellow Grey Nomads.Cheers Ibbo

"I know I'll never find another you", ..................................or if you were a new zealander and just lost your one true love then it would be "I know I'll never find another EWE", ........................."the carnival is over", ........................"morningtown ride", god they were good!!!
