Only for a brief time when I drove out of a service station. It was probably the weird situation I had just experienced in the service station that threw me off.

I tried to drive on the correct side, but there was a truck coming towards me

Yes, but it's not really 'right'

That's correct, you drive on the wrong side of the road.

As if it's not scary enough that you guys drive on the wrong side of the road... the traffic there was dreadful.

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

So wait...your customers come in after listening to your voice on the radio... maybe they think you are hot!

Times have changed

Hello John,

Your examples of these changes are brilliant. We live in a world where we have better access to music than we ever did. I still recall as a teenager that boom boxes were all the rage. The fact that you could put batteries into these bulky boxes and then head outside , hang with friends and listen to music was brilliant... of course it evolved to the portable CD player and now the Ipod's ... making music even more accessible. I was at a party last year where they used an amplifier to share someone's Ipod music... and I really enjoyed that. Often I feel with ipods that only the listener gets to enjoy the music.

There is no doubt that you are more experienced in the area of music than I am... I can simply make my own observations based on my limited knowledge. It seems for me that just when I fall in love with a new artist , another one arrives ... I wonder if one day they will find me as an old lady , passed away quietly amongst a huge pile of CDs and books. That might be a perfect finale for me.

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

Impressive fortitude, Daggy.

We all have our personal limits , you are simply not scared to air yours.

RE: Christmas

Sorry Faithe.. It's the opposite for me. My daughter was born then. I really am sorry that you don't enjoy it.

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

lol@ younger brother being Hugh.

He is just a hunk of manmeat... of course he is married, but hot damn I could look at that man all day.

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

...and us ladies, we dream of such simple pleasures... Like ... a night out with Hugh Jackman...

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

I sincerely believe you mean that! Every Australian male's dream!

RE: Christmas

That's gorgeous, Serene

RE: Pub chicks / guys vs online

I love how Daggy gives us a choice. So we can have a pub chick, or a guy? You really are opening our horizons, Daggy... Not that I have tried the other side ... yet.

RE: Christmas

We had a guy at work who organises our Christmas events, and he rocks. Today however, I realised he hadn't given the office workers invites in their pigeon holes at work to an event coming up... I hassled him and told him I was going to take it personally. He obviously didn't need to give us personal invites because he has it on the notice boards at work... but giving him a hard time is always a pleasure.

I love the social side of Christmas, I love the laughter, the smiles and the random acts of kindness we show strangers.

I completely understand why you are captivated by Christmas, Serene!

RE: Christmas

Hello again Serene,

I am hopelessly old fashioned with Christmas. I send cards, hand written ones ... and Christmas letters to my friends. I make each one unique to them. While my life has slowed down and my friendships have fallen by the wayside over time, I get about 60 cards a year and I think there is nothing nicer than reading through them , thinking of the individuals they were received from over the Season. It's so nice to go out to the letter box and find something that is NOT a bill!

I ...um, also make Christmas pudding in cloth and Christmas cakes every year. I love my Christmas tree... and it tells a story for me- of all the places I have been in the last eight years. I have collected decorations of my trips along the way... so I have decorations from the US and from New Zealand... Bright , Bairnsdale and other little towns I stop at.

I love the scent of cinnamon and spices that permeates my home every Season. And oddly enough... I will spend Christmas alone this year, because it's my turn to work. I work one in two. However, that means someone else is sharing time with their family, so I am fine with that.

RE: Strangest or most disturbing film you have seen

I understand THIS feeling. I saw it for the first time this year and it was gut wrenching.

RE: New Members

The lyrics are hauntingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
