Count Down

Featured Replies

Posted

Well the count down is on and I am packing myself :celebrate: with only 2 sleeps to go untill I get up at 3o'clock Saturday morning and head off to the airport. One friend told me 3 hours from here another said 21/2 so I am going for the 3 to be sure and incase I get lost.

I am delivering Kaz'z birds.

 

Yesterday i thought I might go to the Laverton Auction but now I am thinking I might just come straight home.

 

I am scared I won't be able to make the trip as I am crook at the moment and please don't laugh but I think I have gout, my foot is as sore as and if it doesn't improve by tomorrow I won't be able to drive the car, didn't sleep a wink last night because of the pain :celebrate:

 

Anyway 2 sleeps to go

So I guess I will wait until I'm down there and see how gutsy I feel on the morning, will lat you know what I decided on the day BUT I DO KNOW I have to get to the airport no choice now bugger and my foots stuffed all goods though, well I hope anyway. :celebrate:

Gout is a nasty one, many in my family before me have had it. I have heard a teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar in the morning helps.

 

Hope it all clears up and you are pain free soon! :celebrate:

My Dad had gout...I believe the treatment for gout is quinine.

Hey Renee the doctor told me it runs in the family and my brothers 3 out 4 brothers have it :celebrate: including my dad when he was a live so my kids have plenty to look forward too. I have had Kidney stones which is something to do with gout by the doctor and 2 of my sons have already had kidney stones :celebrate:

Sorry :hug: it might never happen :) Drink plenty of water it's a good start :D

Splat, Laverton is EASY to get to once you are at the airport... You get on the Freeway going towards the city and get onto the Western Ring Rd (another Freeway) follow the signs to Geelong which will, and then take the Laverton Exit. Its really not hard and its even easier than my directions make it out to be :fear

Kaz what's quinine. Sounds like something to do with horses :( :fear

Foot is not too bad today the more I walk around and the more I pee the better it is :bliss: Flushing it out :fear

 

Thanks Jimmy I should be fine but I really didn't relise that there was a Laverton exit, can't see ot on any of the maps I have :)

 

ANY one more SLEEP well half a sleep.

Greg is already sick to death of my whyning :angry: but I call it stress :D worry, woosy or what ever.

 

Anyway now I have decided tp look at Clear bodies as I have been wanting them for a long time but there are only 2 there tomorrow so if I manage to get one I will need to get an Albino and Lutino depending what colour clear body I get. I am after the grey one but they could be crappy too or they could go for too much in that case I will still look at the clear wings and grey wings.

I have my eye on a normal but I think he will go for hundreds and hundreds that leaves me out.

Last year some of them went for $2000.00 plus so I have been told :hug:

Wish I could come with you to the Laverton auction Splat. One day I will fly over and go to an auction with you just for the fun of it :rofl:

 

 

PS What time do they say the birds will get here this end ?

They didn't tell me sorry I will ask when I drop them off and send you a message, they fly out at 8.30 and I am not sure but I think it is a 5 hour trip, I think that's what my boys told but can't really remember but if that's right they will be there by 10.30 because you are 3 hours behind us. Is that right.

 

Yeh cool idea fly over and we can go to an auction together. :D that would be fun, tomorrow will be boring because I will be on my own. :)

 

Oh yeah the next auction I want to go to if I have money is Geelong march the 8th I think but then there are better ones in May. :D

 

My brother Brian just loan me his GPS thing so now I might not get lost unless it gives me the wrong directions ;)
