Hahaha...I have a almost 8 year old daughter and a 10 year old son. I know about the noise. Oh, yes, I know about the noise. Why don't they have a volume control???????????

But not the shops or Civic. Hahahaha. Hmmm, not Canberra's highlights.

Cat, you have to go to the new Museum of Australia as well, it's AWESOME!!!
Questacon has all these new things, your kids will love it. They also did a huge refurbishment of the air hall in the War Memorial. It has heaps of new stuff. There will be plenty of things for you to do!
They have done Civic up a bit since you were last here. it's not a bad as it used to be.

ps. the winters aren't THAT cold (not). It's only april and already its freezing

Shelby, You're not from Canberra are you ?

Here's a quick pic from BOBW with my buddy Peter... Just ignore the guy on the right. (finally got my film developed.)

Cat · 11th April 2001, 10:41 PM

I don't believe you two. Both of you in Canberra....

Shelby, thanks for the info. It's been awhile since we were there.

And don't think I had forgotten about you. We have to meet you too! And if it's before BOBW ALL THE BETTER!!!

We're in Jindabyne from 15 july to 20 july. So we'd be spending time in Canberra in the week before that (so that it's in school holidays).

Shelby, will you be in Canberra then? Say yes! Please!

ShelbyS · 11th April 2001, 10:47 PM

allan, you know i live in canberra. we've spoken about it before down in the aussie forum just before bobw11.

anyway, yes cat i will be in canberra then. i've lived here almost all my life. I love canberra! it's the greatest!

Jindabyn is a great place. all my dad's family is from the snowy country. we have alot of history there. the murray river was in fact named by my great, great, great, great, great someone- or-other.

So what kinda music you you guys like?

By Shortea

I like just about all kinds, but the stuff with profane lyrics. My favorite is Gospel/Christian, because it's music for the soul.

I have to log out. My server is being a pain in the mikta. In a big way. This is about my fifth connection this morning and I could walk to Canberra and talk to you face to face faster than this bl**dy connection.

It's probably revenge for me raking them over the coals about over-charging me and having me on the wrong plan when they knew damn well I'd changed (oh, I could go on forever about this). Almost went to ozemail. argh!! Peter wanted to go to bigpond. double argh!!! What a sh***y bunch of isp's we have available to us in regional NSW.

Anyway, I was going to say that we probably should start pm'ing this stuff otherwise the Moderator Dude might shut us down (even though he's in on it, hehe)

ShelbyS · 11th April 2001, 11:11 PM

Yeah, it has gone a little off topic

Cat · 12th April 2001, 08:20 PM

Thanks, Allan for the move. I must admit coming in and seeing that i am listed as having started a thread i couldn't remember threw me a bit

I thought "hey, I was only joking about the alzheimers!!! honest!!!".
