Oh good! *starts plotting*

Heh..it is very Sthn Hemisphere isn't it? The old Auckland Villa - cold and draughty in winter, hot and muggy in summer. Hehe...hubby is from Nebraska, but he fits right in here, even right down to the light-hearted America-bashing. (And Aus/NZ bashing).

What was I doing up? My sleeping patterns suck. I'm up late lots, like a bad girl waiting up for a father christmas that doesn't show, all year round. *quietly weeps*

Ash - ooh geddit geddit. *Raves about Ash some more*

Ooh I just noticed you have Ash by Gentle! And that you're saving it for later. Let me enthuse about it - one of my favourites, absolute favourites. I hope you enjoy it, when you read it.

Yes, as a welcome home present we have left you one billion posts to read. Actually, that seems kind of low for us. When you are around, I think it averages about two billion :)

I hope you had a nice vacation!

Are you on your vacation already? You have been very quiet. Don't tell me you are working!

What is figjam? Is that what you like on your toast, jam made out of figs? Or is it maybe like FIGWIT? Frodo Is Great, Just A Minute?

Sorry Mr. A I believe i am done for now... I apologize in advance for all posts that are ludicris as i have been up for over 24 hours...

Thanks for the request, Andrew. I really should start using this site some day. I bought a scanner from LT last year, and still haven't scanned in my books. I think I'm afraid to find out how many books we really have in this house, and have to sign us up for "book hoarders anonymous" or something. ;)

I just wanted to say I'm glad LT works for you today! I saw the downtime message yesterday. I hope it wasn't down longer than they'd guessed it would be.

Mr. A-

Thanks for leaving comments for my students. One class is going on tomorrow and the rest next week. I can't wait to show them! They will be so excited, especially getting a comment from Australia! Hopefully there wasn't much comma misusage :) It is hard for me, but I really hold back and emphasize that they need to check and correct their own work.

Thanks again!

LOL! I had said ululate.

Let's see if you get this reference: "You have never heard of the ships in the field? The little...baa baa baas?"

I knew it was a sheep, I just thought I had seen it in a book. I practically reread one book that I was certain I saw that reference in. Thanks for that. 8-}

Glad you made it. You are probably still reading posts. I am always afraid to look after being at work all day, I couldn't imagine after being gone most of a week! Good luck!

Love your "About Me" section above. You wouldn't happen to be a lawyer, would you? :)

Just checking on you, you thought you would be back Friday and I believe it is Friday there, or maybe you meant LT time. Good luck catching up on posts. I haven't been able to get to them until each night, and I has taken awhile to get through everything.

I hope your trip went well,

Question for you MrA. Are there any Australian radio stations that broadcast online? I thought it would be cool for the kids to hear radio from other countries, so you will be the first of a great experiment. (Unless LadyN gets back to me faster.)

This is a station we listen to that broadcasts online. In case you're interested.

"Oz is local slang for Australia (or orstraya, as it's"
Orstraya? Right now I would REALLY liked to have
sound so I could hear you say that.

"often pronounced here). There was a "hunk" in Oz? I've
never read the Frank Baum books... might have to add that to my TBR."
Ahem..."hunk"..well...not in the exact
"hunk"-sense...
I am from Sweden, you know.
English is a foreign language for me.
(Have to excuse my stupidiness somehow.) ;)

I think the "hunk" I meant was the tinman that
figured in the book (and in the movie).
I read about it in an wikipedia in English,
and there he was described as a hunk...

;-D
Good! I like surprised! :D
I just locked at an episod...
Here in Sweden they are pretty unknown.
They guy who introduced me to it is certain he´s never heard of them.
("You sure you got that DVD from me??"
"Yeah, and you said I would like it - I did! :)")
He still hasn´t a clue, so I better show him some day.

I had to lookup Orust, it sounds cool. Is that the island, or the
municipality? "
Orust is great! Very beautiful, many boats, few books
(only negative thingie, but we are working on that one!). ;-D

Orust is both the island and the municipality.
Oh well. You better see for yourself. :)

And maybe read a little about it?

Oz, by the way...
is it:
The fantasyland?
(How is Dorothy, Scarecrow, Hunk and the Lion doing?)
or
A municipality in France?
(Parle vous francaise? Ca va bien?) :)
