It's a standard format that any program can read, and to the best of my knowledge it was first formated by the Mormons to help peeps share their info.Family Tree Maker, Generations ( the one i use )and just about all tree programs should be able to download GEDCOM files.Here's a Link that explains in detail about GEDCOM files and how to download or send,if anyone wants to know. http://genealogy.about(.)com/library/weekly/aa110100c.htm Gotta go check out the records office.

Evening all :) Dinner is over and Son and DIL have gone for an early night. Pizza sounds good Tony - I always make ours now. Tassie, are you more exposed to weather in your new house? Reminds me of when I went to Albury to move youngest son. He had to vacate the unit but had a concert and other commitments to attend to. So guess who had to clean the unit for him???? Going to take grand d out again tomorrow afternoon. At least she is getting used to being with me in her car, which will be good when I am looking after her while mummy is in hospital. She was soooo cute today - I bought her a small book and she was sitting in the trolley 'reading' it when she put it down and signed the word sleep. (she has been taught some sign language) I wasn't sure if she was signing cause she was tired or cause the book had a picture of a teddy bear in bed!! Oh dear Jude. A wet bed and leaking pipes :( ~~~~~~~~~~~ to all. Vonny PS Laurie - I remember that song :) |

Evening Wattlers Well I think we may be in for a rough night tonight, They are putting alerts for severe weather warnings and including ses phone number for emergencies. They say we are in for gale force winds of about 110 knots, and to tie everything down or put it somewhere secure. Tamika seemed ok today but has started complaining of tummy pains that start at her belly and goes up to her chest, then just a while ago she said her neck is starting to feel sore, mmmm not sure what to make of it, maybe blood tests will tell us something. Donna yes we have totally finished with the old house, had most things moved by Monday and cleaning was finished yesterday. David shouted me out to our new local pub for a counter meal, as he said I well and truly earnt it and he would hate to pay my cleaners bill pmsl. ~~~~~~ to everyone~~~~~ Cheers Sue |

Evening all Have spent the last hour or so catching up on the pages. Had a computer lesson today, trying to comprehend what gedcoms are about. This is one dumb little duckie. Then spent the afternoon trying to get into FH. Seem to be losing incentive lately. Hi Trifley, you been behaving you self ??? Not bl**dy likely .... lol Donna glad the scans are clear (how many more sleeps) and Tassie happy to read Tamika is looking a little better. Have you totally finished at the old house now ? Jood, did you get to aquarobics today or were you toobusy baby sitting ? Lara, did you get you puta sorted ? SuzyQ, I really enjoyed the letter you wrote to Sunrise. Really well written you clever little sausage you.... Glad to see back here Tony. Now why would Barb be so happy that you have THREE hard drives....LOL...... mmmmmmmm dinner sounds good tonight. Hope you don't suffer from indigestion.. Hz, when does DD go to Japan.. Did you get you car cleaned yesterday ? Lew Lew, hope you have plenty of pills on hand after your grazing on the weekend. We need something like that in Feb also, yea I know, not grape picking time ! Sandra, you can keep your hot air ballooning, and the absailing etc. Not good with heights, don't like flying either but I do it so I can go and see my daughter Mel in the usa. Yea Jude DIY, I haven't been to our show for years because of the cost. All I want to see are the puddy tats puppy dogs and the flowers. Oh I forgot, can't forget the fireworks. Our show has just been on in August. Hi Flakey ~~~How is the alergy today ? Maybe need some 'special' pills from the doc. Ooops, need a handyman, do we ??? NO lol Vonny, have you drawn breath yet ? Oh yum Mary, shrimps on the barbie ?????? How is you Shaz and Mel ~~~~to all I haven't said Hi to Pam |

Afternoon Wattlers, what a s*#$t of a day this has turned out to be. I got stuck at work much longer than I wanted. Went to visit MIL and had to sit in her unit with the heater on, she was cold at 21degs...lol Now I've walked in the front door to the sound of 'drip, drip, drip' coming from my bedroom. Seems a pipe has a fine leak in the ceiling and its dripping through the aircon duct onto the bed,soaking the doona and then the carpet. Sounds worse than it is but what a pain. OH says its my fault for going to the bathers warehouse outlet this morning and buying 3 pairs of bathers. Recons Ive encouraged the water...lol Got a bargain with the bathers 3 pairs for $100.They were originally priced at $90 each. That should last me for a while,I tend to wear bathers and shorts all summer. Ok ,off to set up a dry bed in Jess's room for the night. Flakey |

Lew and Jude I'll have you know I'm selective as to who I bite - and the postie is definitely NOT on my list! - (jude shudders) Never heard that song Laurie - an oldie but a goodie? Read a couple of months ago that a hug should last 7 seconds minimum for it to do the most good -- we spend a lot of time huggling! Tell everyone you know - that way lots of hugs get shared.lol Back soon - my customers await my presence jude 3 |

Afternoon Wattlers We had heaps of rain, hail and wind last night, but woke to a cool but sunny day. Picked up the girls at airport and they was tired but glad to be home, just checked on youngest on and she is asleep on her bed, Tamika is in her room sorting out her stuff, her seems a bit better now than when I picked her up, but her friend is here and has had plenty of cuddles to make her better lol. Funny what love does hee hee. Hospital did take some blood and are doing test to make sure it was only a migrane and not anything else, they are going to forward the results to us. Hello to all, too many to mention. Cheers Sue |

The woman looked puzzled. 'Why talk to me?' she asked. 'Because every time I talk to a woman with tits like yours, my wife appears out of nowhere.' Boom, boom. Heeeeee, Lew Lew xxx |

Hello Wattlers, real spring weather in Melb, complete with wind. JudeDIY Im with you on the show...too expensive and way too many peeps for me. I was so glad when I the kids were old enough to go on their own. Although I loved spending hours with the animals. Glad all the sickies seem to be improving. Lots of vitD(sunshine) and lots of liquids makes a big difference. By liquids I didnt necessarily mean grape juice Lew...lol Have a good day everyone, back to work Flakey |
