Q How do you catch a unique rabbit?

A Unique up on it!

Q How do you catch a tame rabbit?

A Tame way!

Ski things I learned...

1 Porcupines can climb trees

2 If there is a mummy bear in a cave with two small bears, leave her alone

3 If you land up to your neck in a snowdrift, this is hilarious to those watching.

I shall really try and be at the next FG meet.


Dance!!!!

I've always liked a steak or two and the other day my mate offered me 8 legs of venison. I turned it down cos I thought it was too dear

Yes, but how will we travel, Betty? We can't go by train because it'll be impossible with six heavy suitcases between us :yh_rotfl Oh well, I'll have to take your footwell again.

"Handing over of the cardi ceremony???" That'll be the day :wah:

Exactly what Bets and I thought...:-6

Did we ever look at rearranging the letters of my name...tea, hi :sneaky:

Actually, Pammie, I do love a cup of good coffee, so please ensure that the maid is aware of this. I was forced to let mine go...cutbacks and all that :-1

I'm very sorry to say, Theia, that YES, we did discover your name contained a greeting and an abomination!!!

After spending two weeks in the US, you will appreciate that my coffee taste buds are now in desperate catch-up overdrive. My co-skiers, who were all Americans of European heritage, had a few cheating ways of brewing up a decent cuppa, but that wasn't always possible. I needed four cups of our hotel's gnat-pee brekkie brew to get me out on the slopes ( a single double espresso would have done it here) and then of course I tended to slosh over the moguls!!

Sydney airport... the smell of actual coffee, dark, oily, aromatic... I think I fainted...

...but I digress...

It's sooooo nice to see you and Betty B!!!
