Saying thank you to @Boo and @Sazerac for a VERY successful Melbourne Cup... Thank you Saz & Boo..... and why do they get my thanks.....got the last three quinellas (1st & 2nd) in races 8-10.. . And 2 of them are thanks to them....huh? you say....weeeeeelllllll I always take 2 & 6 in the quinella cos it was me grandad's unit (WW2.. 2nd6th)...and then I box in a third horse which is also me each way bet...so I couldn't decide on a third horse so I went nah-yeah I'll take 'Looks Like Elvis' cos Boo n Saz like him (blurgh)...and then I could pick a third in another so I went, I'll just take 11 like the Elvis horse....so the quinella in race 8 was 2 & 11 ...race 9 was 2&11 and race 10 was 2&6.....$1,389.70 (few each way bets in there too)....so thanks Boo and Saz cos $1000 of that was from your love of Elvis. 

[Sazerac]

Well, good on ya, Jo !

I am not a big Elvis fan but happy to be included in your winnings !

Here is one of his worst covers you don't have to listen to.

I dropped the first of the dimes this morning turning in looser neighbor for flagrant code violations.

They must be concerned about the bust because they had 2 workers out there @7pm in the dark installing gutter.

It is a ridiculous job, just insane...so far away from any similarity to code.

But, I feel optimistic, have current contact with the city and have lowered my BP.

Congratulations @notsmokinjo, that's a huge win!

[notsmokinjo]

Right now... Not sleeping...that is what I am doing....not sleeping.

[Wee fluffy me]

Trying to feed my dragon Crickets but he's more scared of them than me I think ..!!

[catlover]

^ are they alive! I would feel a bit jumpy doing that, sort of feel sorry for the cricket lol.

 

[Wee fluffy me]

Aye, they are alive he usually has locusts but these are big scary black crickets.. and I have to hand feed him them or he won't eat them ... there is a lot of shaking and squealing going on (from me.)

[catlover]

eek! i would be so squeamish doing that, they would go in the viv and he'd have to hunt for them lol. 

[Doreensfree]

I know someone who has 4 pet cockroaches....pleez.....

[catlover]

^ pets! oh my I hope he counts them each day, and they dont escape!

You questioned the power of Elvis but That's All Right Mama.

 

Eventually, you put your faith in Elvis and the King steered ya right.

 

[Vivianne]

Sleepy time!! Have a good day all of you that are in a different time zone!

Stay safe and sane (or somewhat sane haha)

[notsmokinjo]

Trying to decide if I want dessert.

[catlover]

Eating soup. I have a wisdom tooth giving me grief. Dentist has got me on antibiotics, hope it eases off soon, as don't want to live on "baby food" for too much longer. So glad I dont smoke, as dentist said that would make it far worse. 

[Sazerac]

We got all our safe words from Grimm....my kid wasn't allowed in a car with anyone even if she knew them unless they knew the safeword....Grimm 'species' were our safe words.

[notsmokinjo]

Trying to work my new temporary phone...let's see how long this one lasts before the screen shatters.
