Any takers?

Hi Sincere, David (my better half) may be in London late August (though it's far from settled yet). Guess that's way too tenuous an offer. Pity, as me thinks you would love David. Norm and kent can vouch for him!!! He's a seriously nice guy! (definitely your type!!!).
Hoping all is working out ok for you,
Marilyn
G'day Mazza,
I'm busy working on my rock pile this side of the border. We have beautiful rocks around here - every colour of the rainbow .. and more (gotta collect 50 tons before spring (when the snakes come out ;/
I have a pile of snail mail to catch up on too .. an uncles work is never done ;)
cheers, unc
Brucie, Speaking of rocks:
A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began,
wordlessly he picked up a large empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks about 2" in
diameter. He then asked the students if the jar was full? They agreed that it was.
So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The
pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar
was full. They agreed it was.
The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything
else.
"Now," said the professor, "I want you to recognize that this is your life.
The rocks are the important things - your family, your partner, your health, your children - things that if
everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things
that matter like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else. The small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first, there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your
life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that
really matter. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your
happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out dancing.
There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the disposal.
"Take care of the rocks first - the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
But then... a student then took the jar which the other students and the professor agreed was full, and
proceeded to pour in a glass of beer. Of course the beer filled the remaining spaces within the jar making
the jar truly full.
The moral of this tale is: that no matter how full your life is, there is always room for BEER!

Hi Marilyn!
Pity, as me thinks you would love David. Norm and kent can vouch for him!!! He's a seriously nice guy! (definitely your type!!!).
I sure as Hell can! You will find pics of that event on my webpages, as a matter of fact - from the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo :)
I might visit the UK this summer, if I can find some cheap tickets. When will David be there?

I wouldn't mind a day in London if 3 or 4 of us could get together. It's about a 2 hour journey from here by train. I know a couple of great wine bars in Covent Garden or maybe meet for a picnic in Hyde Park. It could make for a good day!

PS. I'm holding my annual birthday barbie on Sunday the 15th, here in Weston super Mare. Anyone who wants to come please email me and I'll supply you with my phone number.

Hi Kent, As I said, the trip is not certain yet. He has to wait for the Big Chiefs to pow wow over who to send. No one else wants to go and David said he didn't mind. He'll go anywhere as long as someone gives him a ticket! He will send you a mail if it comes off! Englishman's offer sounds pretty tempting - David might just get a courier flight and go anyway! :-)
