[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 204786, member: 1991"] G'day, folks. Sharon/WO, you might have to take time off work. Even with the microphone, it's still using your voice too much. Rabbit, good to see you back on the morning thread. I sent you a PM. Sharon/LDM, sounds like you have your usual busy day ahead. Linda, your mini-break sounds like it was wonderful. difficult child 1 would have especially loved to see your eagles. If there were so many, then the food must be plentiful for them. They do fish, don't they? I'm a bit late tonight - we just got back from a meeting with the caterer for the wedding. girlfriend's mother was along for this one, she's an organiser who wanted to also be heavily involved. I'd invited her to dinner, so I was madly cooking, tidying and getting everything ready so we could eat as soon as husband walked in the door. My legs and hips are really sore from the last few days' activity - shopping in the city on Saturday for my new 5" high heels, then climbing up to the tops of the neo-Gothic towers of Sydney University yesterday (Sunday) to see the organ loft and then the carillon. And wouldn't you know it? The caterer lives on the side of a cliff which we had to scale, to get to the bottom level of their three-story house. OK, the views during the day are spectacular, but visiting on a stormy night peppered with hail storms (thankfully we were arriving and leaving between storms) was a bit tricky. Tomorrow I'm heading out early to check out caterers with easy child 2/difficult child 2. Also at the same time we need to get easy child 2/difficult child 2's new-ish laptop computer checked out - it's suddenly developed amnesia, it can't find its operating system files. On the way home I need to buy more herb seedlings - I offered to supply the caterer with fresh herbs from my garden. I'm also making several litres of Bearnaise sauce for the reception. Would you believe - it's going to cost us only about $7 a head! That's Aussie dollars, too. easy child 2/difficult child 2's wedding plans are in complete contrast at the moment. Starting price for what she wants is in the vicinity of A$120 a head, minimum of 100 guests. That's just for catering only, for stand-up cocktail nibbles - the price goes up from there. Forget it, kiddo. Hate to think what they charge for a sit-down menu. Enjoy your Monday. Marg [/QUOTE]
