Guest Impatient Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 2 up? Please explain, this is clearly an important part of my research for going, and it sounds like it involves alcohol so I need to know anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nev_n_angie Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I'm going to be sad :unsure: :cry: My potential Case Officer - whoever it may be :err: will be absent from his or her place of work tomorrow - which means that I cannot expect to hear ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Additionally, this is a purely selfish thing to say as public holidays to commemorate such a massive period in History are well deserved! Still going to be hacked off though :arghh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seaangel Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 We went to a dawn service here as husband is in the forces. We took the kids with us. I must admit it was a very moving service, playing the last post etc and then watching the sun come up. Am glad I went but feel absolutely knackered! Managed to get a few games of 2 up in and also crown and anchor, but did not win much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tinbasher Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 LC you are back, with tales of a sick doggie, I hope she is alright. Had you not washed your feet again? Hope you had a good time; couldn't you have stayed away a bit longer? As for Anzac day, I went to church only to find when I got there that they had cancelled the service, which I wasn't very impressed with. There was a few of us that turned up. So although I had good intentions to remember the fallen heroes it was a bit strange really. :frown: Mrs TinB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have a good time, but I missed you, of course.* Now you've recounted your Anzac day, it explains what we overheard at a pub down your way. Apparently one church in your area (see how discrete I am?) is having problems with a strange woman who keeps jumping up during the sermon and shouting 'hallelujah', before breaking into song and dance routines. Well, because Anzac day is such a serious affair, the congregation decided to lie low until said nutter bought the 'cancelled' service idea, and left. Whereupon they all jumped up (inc. the 90yolds) and had a charming heartfelt celebration. Of course that was probably just idle gossip..... Yours mischievously, LC:D *That's what they call sarcasm...

Guest tinbasher Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Dear LC What can I say? You are so funny Laughing Cow you should be on a TV commercial! I love your sarcasm it makes me laugh :biglaugh: I feel so ashamed that the people hid from me I only shout out, 'Hallelujah,' to wake the old buggers up! :embarrassed: Sorry to hear about Taisy, she's the cute white one that is like a little Teddy bear.
