Rofl @Former-Member and @Former-Member
now let's start off with the important stuff, Darcy... darn right lucky you didn't call my babies moggies!!! O MY GOLLY GEE GOSH it sure was girlie!! 😛 hmmmph.. close shave there my dear gal!
I think my chocky, being the cerebral rule breaker she is, would probably follow the doggies. Just to spit the other two and pffft at their need to conform.
My Blue tigger stripey would definitely follow the cats I think being the right colour and their mascot being like him and my Bipsy would just turn upside down in her bipsy position and watch any tigers game. Because for some reason (despite supposedly cats not being able to see colour), she is fascinated by yellow. Have they updated that theory yet?
Sherry I am very appreciatve of your reluctant magnanimous generosity in allowing my GWS soft spot to show up over your swannies I understand the sting it causes. 🙂
as for some bague mention of those colluuyngrtudwod thingos... thatI'm just choosing to bypass, ignore and detour. Thank you in advance, for your understanding on that too - both of you 😄
forgive typose on dreaded nor traditional keyboard type thingy so probably heaps to decipher.
Spooky 😄

Thanks for all your kind thoughts today including @Spookytookims@Faith-and-Hope @lil-caterpillar @lapses @Determined @Former-Member @Shaz51@Former-Member.
It was a tough day. I set off early amidst rain. As I pulled up at the lookout, the clouds offered me a reprieve and I had ten minutes or so alone when I could bawl my eyes out before scattering my Dad's ashes. I will want mine spread there too when my time comes. It was a beautiful morning. I went up there alone - I had wanted it that way. I hadn't told my family except for my kids who had stuff happening anyway.
I didn't feel like company. Just seeing heaps of people gathering for brunch at quaint coffee shops was too much for me. I chose to drive a bit further on to a National Park and went for a 10km walk. It wasn't quite Kokoda but the wet path that meandered up to the waterfall and down to the rock pools was a challenge nine the less. I'm going to feel it in my legs tomorrow. The physical exhaustion was welcome all the same and the concentration required to not slip and tumble kept my mind away from despairing thoughts. As I passed the place on the return trip, the sun shone brightly for a couple of minutes.
So my Dad has been laid to rest, finally after eight years. I could have done with his wisdom, support and love the last three of mine. Here's a couple of pics. Low key graffiti atop the valley where his ashes were scattered and the waterfall I walked to.

I've been watching the sydney/GWS one @Former-Member but I see Lyon may be playing his stifling game again cos score on the freo/NM game looks hideous in comparison. But ok.. atm you probably don't want to talk about the game I'm watching I'm guessing. Neither probably does @Former-Member 😖

oh at the moment I'm happy with the footy @Former-Member... but think that would make you and @Former-Member cough into your hot chockies. GWS is not making swans look too good just at the moment.
Freo... well last I saw the score North has come good... so happy about that one at the moment too. Really really REALLY don't like Freo since they did what they did to Mark Harvey and replaced him in a very underhanded way to put Lyon in there.
But.. having said that... why don't you like pusscats? I've been wondering about that. Is it cos you can't wash them? 😛
