Nan

LOL Dawn, you are starting to remind me of my mother As she got older her only interest was politics and she would cut out newspaper stories to show us when we were in Australia on holiday .. we didn't read them but she felt better thinking we had

Lets hope he lives up to expectations. I guess he will do that for some, depending on their expectations

Kia Ora, Tony ... Ra Whanau Ki A Koe Happy Birthday to you !!!!

LOL !!!!!!!

LOL !!!!!

A very quick google search found the photo - here is the link to the snopes item on the above photos >> http://www.snopes.com/manipulated-photograph-of-bill-clinton-crowd/

Thanks Laurie .. regards to the family and tell MsDawn that I said she better get herself better soon or I'll have to go over there and take charge !!!! And that would be a bit scary lol

Koach, the photoshopped photo popped up on my Facebook notifications a day or so ago. It was supposedly a photo being used by the Clinton campaign to show how popular they are. I don't remember the original wording on the notification but I googled it, and got hits from Snopes and other websites claiming it was a hoax and not something that had been officially used by either side of the candidates.

Good news Hopefully every day will be a new and better day for Dawn, and of course for the boys and the family.

Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuu .... hope it was a good day (but you've already said it was excellent) .. another year older and wiser (so they say) !!!

Sorry to hear this news. What happened? I hope the boys are ok and have someone (perhaps their grandmother) to be with them. Please tell the boys that Australian Nan is thinking of them and their mum.

Yes that's been doing the facebook rounds in the past week or so. I googled it and it is claimed it was a hoax photo (of course I knew that) but it was not, as claimed, being promoted by the Clinton campaign, but rather by a random troublemaker

LOL Casa

LOL ....

That's great

Yes Casa you can come with us, the more the merrier Thanks I'm sure our break will be nice and hopefully not too rough at sea !!

I'm heading off to Papua New Guinea in a couple of weeks for a holiday, on a cruise. As some of you know I lived there for a number of years before moving to Vanuatu. I thought I'd add this video about PNG for those who might be interested in seeing what it is like. We found, on a trip to Hawaii and America some years ago, that many people had never heard of PNG and thought we were talking about a country in Africa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oK0Qtg1tsg

Sounds like an excellent idea

LOL good one !!!

A friend of mine's husband put this video together when he and his mates took their bikes to the island of Tanna, in Vanuatu for some fun and frivolity. The mountain that is featured is Mt Yasur, a live volcano. On one side it is possible to walk to the edge of the crater and look down into the lava bubbling away below. On the other side (where the bikes can be seen) it is covered with volcanic ash and at the bottom is the ash plain. Some good fun was had by all on a little island in the South West Pacific : ​ I walked to the edge of that volcano some years ago and sat on the rim for about 30 minutes, it's one of the most memorable things I've done and was an awesome experience, especially when all of a sudden the mountain went from complete silence to a deep rumbling and then the lava was flying up into the air (not up as high as we were on the rim), scary but amazing.

Excellent, that explains it !!!

Oh gosh that looks awful and very serious .. seems almost the whole vehicle got blitzed

Happy Birthday Troy !! Have a good one

Thanks Stormy and Koach it was a nice day with the family and a great meal cooked by my daughter so I didn't have to do much but just enjoy myself

LOL love it
