in the last month or so ive made a stack of new friends, these people are by far the friendliest people ive ever met and we have all taken to each other as if we have known each other for years, its un canny how we all get along and look after each other even tho we've only known each other for a short time.

these people have easily changed my life, and although i highly highly doubt they'd be reading this thanks guys, you kids mean a stack to me

Y2K ·

Freddie Fender ·

Youngest son turned 1 on Monday. He is a happy kid, always shadowing me everywhere I go and even helps by testing any bolts I remove off the Beetle in his mouth before I fcan put them back on. No harm comes to him from this behaviour but it is slightly odd and very cute.

I had him sitting in the back set of the Beetle whilst I was installing new seatbelts, he thought he was King of the Castle sitting up there, climbing around and generally being overly cute.

Another good thing is I got one of my old saxes abck from the repair shop and it plays startlingly. I will take it out to gig with tonight. Really looking forward to it.

A Kombi ????? What will wolf think of that ?

A date with a nice guy ? Do tell

Rock N Roll dancing ? Does that mean that we will see you take the floor at the VWCV dinner dance ?

bugeyedbabe ·

hey freddie,

my daughter did that too...i have xray of her thumbtack to prove it...

and not my fault she ate it, she was 4 and in child care...

after that child cared hired her very own personal child giver...she still 'glued' her hair, painted herself "green" and pat the nice big spider...just coz it looked cute and furry like....

son has also eaten marbles, pebbles & string from sisters balloon ....and yes, u can discover them at the over end......

so yeah, it's get even more fun from here on in....😀

Starbug ·

this past week has been up and down for me... really big up, then a really big down, then with the help of friends right back up again.

i ran headlong into some personal problems last week (could have been avoided... but thats no fun!) and sis and i had a HUGE fight, but after many long d'n'm's with our mutual friends we are all back together and being friends and doing silly girly stuff again.
i know they arent reading this but, i would like to thank my 2 best girly friends for helping me out with the crazy shit that was running through my head and calming my sister down, and i would like to thank my best boy-y friend for keeping me sane.

apart from that id like to thank all the people around me who are giving me so much support about going from red with 4 wheels to red with 2 wheels, and my work mates that drive slowly down the main back road of west end at night while im riding so no-one can attack me while im riding home.

and id like to give a HUGE thanks to my dad for taking 2 months out to build my wardrobe, which is amazing and huge and now i have somewhere to put all my clothes🙂

pete wood ·

Daughter (14 months) had an operation on her mouth last week. Came through it so well she was eating solid food the next morning. She was so bright they had to released her from hospital the next day. She was jumping up and down on the bed like a mad thing...in intensive care. 😀

So we brought her home so all the real sick kids could get some rest.😉

Queen_Bug ·

Bank approved my loan!

Dannyboy ·

Well after years i'm kicking the smokes! 3 days now , no patches etc doing it the hard way. So far so good and i think the key is to keep busy and not think about it too much.
Apart from the money saved evrything is getting done! Garage is mint , cars been polished 15 times , house is immaculate.
Got the urge last night so went for a hours walk instead which was nice , havent been to the beach in ages.

All positive stuff as the money saved gets me into my own place that much quicker and buys some more bling for the squareback!

Hey well done Jay. Tell us more on your man.

What year / model kombi you getting?


Yesterday was a good news day on 3 occasions. One mate is finally attempting to get a knee and part fibia replacement after 20 years of a stuffed leg. Hopefully he'll be able to walk properly again.

I also found out that my Mum's tumor in her neck was benign. She's had such a tough life with illness, she deserves every good break she gets.

Also found out friends test for secondary cancer is clear after her hysterectomy. She's had a tough trot with chemo and rediation treatment, but this is great news.

After all of the above, it's just great to be alive surrounded by the kids and family.
