lollies
 

you will have to try some of fantails and jaffas, you know what a lolly is don't you ?
Max

Words
 

Korowa Karmen, you've got all sorts of words to learn...
Lolly (as in "do your lolly), Lolly (as in "chewing a lolly"),
Words like Konk, Snoz, bugle, all describe the same thing
You'll meet people that are bonzer, wankers, drongos, beauts, sorts and bastards.
It is OK to call a mate a bastard. It is a sign of affection.
While you are meeting these mongrells, you can suck down a tinny, chew on a snag and light up a durrie while we bung on some damper. Just don't end up a little Mozart and Lizt... (Thanks Keefy)

Re: lollies
 

You got me Googling, Max :) It seems you're talking about "sweets treats" , judging by my search ... well, except for what I found searching for fantails :D

When people say Lolly/Lollies to me, I think of Lollypops which are suckers (hard candies on a stick).

Orange / chocolate filled balls, with hard candy coating - very popular at the movies in Australia

Fantails as in Australian birds?

Korowa Karmen

Canadians ALREADY talk funny KK...

Re: Re: Re: Words
 

... and Howard, French Canadians talk even more funny..... trust me on this..... I married one and Karmen has heard Denise speak, or try and speak the 'Queen's English'..... :eek:

Re: Re: Re: Words
 

Note to self: Be sure to have my :fry: when I meet Howard so that I can use it as a teaching tool to help him learn just who is talking funny when we talk. I'm sure my teaching tool will make him agree that Korowa Karmen is right, and he is wrong :devil:

:D

Re: Re: Re: Re: Words
 

Oh dear, Denise may want to borrow my :fry: when she reads what you just said about her ... :eek: ...

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Words
 

... no worries, Denise is in the same boat as you, she can't reach that high.... :p

Re: Re: Re: Re: Words

We are pleased to provide the following information about our Collector Account Merge process.


While the Terms and Conditions of the AIR MILES® Reward Program do not allow for the transferring of AIR MILES® reward miles from one Collector Account to another; the Primary Cardholder can redeem their reward miles for anyone they wish, or, AIR MILES® Collector Accounts can be merged. To complete a merge request, here’s what we need:


1) via e-mail:


The Primary Cardholder of the Collector Account that is to be merged (closed) is the person who needs to log onto our Web site and submit the request. They will need to provide the Collector Account Number they wish their Account merged to.


Their Collector Account will then be closed and all reward miles will be “transferred” to the remaining active Collector Account.


Once the merge has been conducted we will notify you by return e-mail.


2) via telephone:


The Primary Cardholder of the Collector Account that is to be merged (closed) is the person who needs to call our Customer Care Centre at 1-888-AIR MILES (247-6453), in the Toronto area 416-226-5171 where one of our Customer Care Specialists will be happy to assist them.

Merging
 

Sounds like an old guidance class

Re: Merging
 

Now THERE's am memory blast from the past ... Guidance classes in school. I think I played too much hooky because I haven't graduated that class as yet :D

3 months to go..
 

well actually a little less for Corowa Carman and we're already up to 110 posts on this thread - will it become the all time largest? :confused

Re: 3 months to go..
 

Maybe by then this thread will need a whole new software prgram to hold it ... Something like MLU 2 for CC aka KK aka Ma Yappy yapping :D

It would have to top my original thread I started when I first joined (almost 4 yrs ago!!!!) for searching about my Uncle. That thread stands at 10970 :) (mostly me posts :D )

I think other threads have topped that number though. In the software forums???

Karmen

Re: 3 months to go..
 

I found it remarkable recently when we celebrated 50,000 posts that nearly 7% of them were by Karmen alone! What were the other 1300 members doing?

Re: Re: 3 months to go..
 

:fry: take THAT Master TTT :p

:D

Re: Re: 3 months to go..
 

Why they were listening to me, of course :D

Now how did I miss this cheeky post? I thought your ankles were fine, isn't it your TOES in rough shape??? :D

Thanks Dinty, a little help from my :sheep: friends will be greatly handy and appreciated methinks :smoker:

G'day Ma, looking forward to seeing you there cheers Dennis

:sheep:

Hi Dennis ... and yes, I'm looking forward to seeing you there too.
I can't believe how many MLU-ers I'm going to meet in person over there. I greatly look forward to that!

One step closer, I got my passport photos today. It's a bit of a thrill to think about being 52 and am about to have my very first passport ever, and my first time ever to be airbourne across oceans to land on another continent. Maybe many of you have been there, done that, and its irritating because the novelty has worn off, but me?

I feel like a kid at Christmas and Santa looks like a :sheep: or a Kangaroo ... hey, wait a minute. I AM a kid still!!! :cheers:
