Hi everyone..

Thanks for your good wishes on the big 1000.

Did you notice what I finally chose to put with my name? Two words that say so much about me.

Gil_T_2 will you cut out the age stuff please?? If my memory serves me right you're younger than me!!

AzureSky.. I can't believe your energy girl. You're a mum, you run a business with your partner, and you renovate in your spare time. I think the nic WonderWoman would be more appropriate for you!

[Ladybird]

A question friends.

How much younger than a woman would a man be to be classified a 'toy boy'? Gil_T_2's question made me think..

AzurureSky.. I don't think you're asking for much.. nothing more than I'm looking for. Especially the toilet seat thingie !!

Greg, Maree and Draconianau.. thank you for your good wishes.

Draconianau don't let my new av fool you. I'm anything but elegant, but I am a poser! PM me your email addy and I'll send you a copy of my old av if you like.

Hugs LB!!

Couldn't resist answering your question. I started kidding Oman and referring to him as my "boy toy" and he's only 3 years younger than me!

Guess that really doesn't count though, huh?

Ladybird

"toyboy"...you not telling us something?...details details...lol


hmmm..Toyboy status...5 ...10 years?

Funny really...seems the older the woman gets the less amount of years between her and a man seems to win the title of toyboy

as long as he isn't jail bait doesn't matter...

Spineless

To the rude person from Lit

Just received your rude ,obnoxious ,anonymous message on ICQ.

How about you strap on a set of testicles and tell me what your problem is

As far as I know the Male in question is single.

As for your accusationa. I haven't even met him .So I suggest you pull your head out of your rear and wake up and smell reality


Everyone else...sorry about this, I don't like to bring hostility to a normally friendly place. This person is obviously from here however.

 

[Ozzie Buzz]

hi all ,

and another wet morning to all - ah such is life

m'lady a very stylish av - but the old one is a real fav from every angle

azure - chocolate crackles not for a while hey?- but what wine would you have with it - a late harvest semillion ?

re toy boys(or toy girls for that matter) - isnt age just a state of mind, where if i dont mind it doesnt matter - so if you felt me i wouldn't mind or matter- no hang ups here

we are all at a sex (not a sports)site - but what drew us here in the first place I bet the replies are varied - me i love erotic stories or those stories being read to me

 

[AzureSky]

ozzie buzz

Milk with choccie crackles...lol

 

[Ladybird]

Good morning Aussies..

Sorry to disappoint you AzureSky, there is no toyboy in my life Don't you think I'd be bragging if there was!!

I hate to think that someone from here contacted you thru ICQ. Let me add my comments... what we discuss here is among friends, and intended to stay here. Your actions will only serve to make us all a little careful before posting such things in future. Don't spoil the atmosphere here.

Pleasureu I love your new Av.. its beautiful, and reflects on you and your interests.

Jenny... I'm sure your life seems a little empty today hon. Just keep on posting and keep busy.

Why did I come here Ozzie? A girlfriend recommended the site to me. She would come here to read the stories, but I was soon hooked on chat.

It was just a few months before my marriage break up and offered me the escapism I needed.

I made some really good friends here, and that's why I return now.. for the friends I have rather than the site content.

 

[Blue Dolphin]

good morning LB

Hi daerlin
ty for comments on av, I also wrote the few lines in signature, to accompany it.
Am sure you will understand what I am saying.
have posted the poem I showed you
goin bed now
night love

 

[QuickDuck]

hmmm why did i come here....

Well i was reading the online journal of a few people, and one mentioned literotica.com as their favourite "porn" site.

Since looking at photo's does very little for me (oh how i have changed *lol*) i went and had a look, but i did not discover the forum part till alot later.

I was bored one day so decided to have a look and see what else was on the site and found it.... naturally since i am very single and always curious about things, I found the "personals" section and then loe and behold a topic called "aussies"

well the rest is history which you can read here *lol*

LB, i do love the new AV, but i must admitt that from a purely male point of view, i did like the old one *wink*

as for a toy boy... well my first gf was 18 months older than me, and my next was 7 years younger.... i guess if you have a toy boy or girl, then you are only as old as the person you are feeling

Hi LB! Yes, feeling a little bit emptier, but still in touch with him. We're both trying to readjust after such a nice time together!

On a Lighter Note

The Confusing Country

Australia is a very confusing place, taking up a large amount of the bottom half of the planet. It is recognisable from orbit because of many unusual features, including what at first looks like an enormous bite taken out of its southern edge; a wall of sheer cliffs which plunge deep into the girting sea. Geologists assure us that this is simply an accident of geomorphology and plate tectonics, but they still call it the "Great Australian Bight" proving that not only are they covering up a more frightening theory, but they can't spell either.

The first of the confusing things about Australia is the status of the place. Where other land masses and sovereign lands are classified as either continent, island, or country, Australia is considered all three. Typically,it is unique in this.

The second confusing thing about Australia are the animals. They can be divided into three categories: Poisonous, Odd, and Sheep. It is true that of the 10 most poisonous arachnids on the planet, Australia has 9 of them. Actually, it would be more accurate to say that of the 9 most poisonous arachnids, Australia has all of them. However, there are curiously few snakes, possibly because the spiders have killed them all. But even the spiders won't go near the sea. Any visitors should be careful to check inside boots (before putting them on) under toilet seats (before sitting down) and generally everywhere else. A stick is very useful for this task.

Strangely, it tends to be the second class of animals (the Odd) that are more dangerous. The creature that kills the most people each year is the common Wombat. It is nearly as ridiculous as its name, and spends its life digging holes in the ground, in which it hides. During the night it comes out to eat worms and grubs.

The wombat kills people in two ways: First, the animal is indestructible. Digging holes in the hard Australian clay builds muscles that outclass Olympic weightlifters. At night, they often wander the roads. Semi-trailers (Road Trains) have hit them at high speed, with all 9 wheels on one side, and this merely makes them very annoyed. They express this by snorting, glaring, and walking away. Alas, to smaller cars, the wombat becomes an asymmetrical high-speed launching pad, with results that can be imagined, but not adequately described.

The second way the wombat kills people relates to its burrowing behaviour. If a person happens to put their hand down a Wombat hole, the Wombat will feel the disturbance and think "Ho! My hole is collapsing!" at which it will brace its muscled legs and push up against the roof of its burrow with incredible force, to prevent its collapse. Any unfortunate hand will be crushed, and attempts to withdraw will cause the Wombat to simply bear down harder. The unfortunate will then bleed to death through their crushed hand as the wombat prevents him from seeking assistance. This is considered the third most embarrassing known way to die, and Australians don't talk about it much.

At this point, we would like to mention the Platypus, estranged relative of the mammal, which has a duck-bill, otter's tail, webbed feet, lays eggs, detects its aquatic prey in the same way as the electric eel, and has venomous barbs attached to its hind legs, thus combining all 'typical' Australian attributes into a single improbable creature.

The last confusing thing about Australia is the inhabitants. First, a short history: Some time around 40,000 years ago, some people arrived in boats from the north. They ate all the available food, and a lot of them died. The ones that survived learned respect for the balance of nature, man's proper place in the scheme of things, and spiders. They settled in, and spent a lot of the intervening time making up strange stories.

Then, around 200 years ago, Europeans arrived in boats from the north. More accurately, European convicts were sent, with a few deranged and stupid people in charge. They tried to plant their crops in Autumn (failing to take account of the reversal of the seasons when moving from the top half of the planet to the bottom), ate all their food, and a lot of them died. About then the sheep arrived, and have been treasured ever since.

It is interesting to note here that the Europeans and always consider themselves vastly superior to any other race they encounter, since they can lie, cheat, steal, and litigate (marks of a civilised culture, they say) - whereas all the Aboriginals can do is happily survive being left in the middle of a vast red-hot desert, equipped with a stick.

Eventually, the new lot of people stopped being Europeans on Extended Holiday and became Australians. The changes are subtle, but deep, caused by the mind-stretching expanses of nothingness and eerie quiet, where a person can sit perfectly still and look deep inside themselves to the core of their essence, their reasons for being, and the necessity of checking inside your boots every morning for fatal surprises. They also picked up the most finely tuned sense of irony in the world, and the Aboriginal gift for making up stories. Be warned.

There is also the matter of the beaches.

Australian beaches are simply the nicest and best in the entire world. Although anyone actually venturing into the sea will have to contend with sharks, stinging jellyfish, stonefish (a fish which sits on the bottom of the sea, pretends to be a rock, and has venomous barbs sticking out of its back that will kill just from the pain) and surfboarders. However, watching a beach sunset is worth the risk.

As a result of all this hardship, dirt, thirst, and wombats, you would expect Australians to be a dour lot. Instead, they are genial, jolly, cheerful, and always willing to share a kind word with a stranger, unless they are an American. Faced with insurmountable odds and impossible problems, they smile disarmingly and look for a stick. Major engineering feats have been performed with sheets of corrugated iron, string, and mud.

Alone of all the races on earth, they seem to be free from the 'Grass is Greener on the other side of the fence' syndrome, and roundly proclaim that Australia is, in fact, the other side of that fence. They call the land "Oz", "Godzone" (a verbal contraction of "God's Own Country") and "Best bloody place on earth, bar none, strewth." The irritating thing about this is they may be right.

There are some traps for the unsuspecting traveller, though. Do not under any circumstances suggest that the beer is imperfect, unless you are comparing it to another kind of Australian beer. Do not wear a Hawaiian shirt. Religion and Politics are safe topics of conversation (Australians don't care too much about either) but Sport is a minefield. The only correct answer to "So, howdya' like our country, eh?" is "Best {insert your own regional swear word here} country in the world!".

It is very likely that, on arriving, some cheerful Australians will 'adopt' you, and on your first night, and take you to a pub where Australian Beer is served. Despite the obvious danger, do not refuse. It is a form of initiation rite. You will wake up late the next day with an astonishing hangover, a foul-taste in your mouth, and wearing strange clothes. Your hosts will usually make sure you get home, and waive off any legal difficulties with "It's his first time in Australia, so we took him to the pub.", to which the policeman will sagely nod and close his notebook. Be sure to tell the story of these events to every other Australian you encounter, adding new embellishments at every stage, and
noting how strong the beer was. Thus you will be accepted into this unique culture.

Most Australians are now urban dwellers, having discovered the primary use of electricity, which is air-conditioning and refrigerators.

Typical Australian sayings

* "G'Day!"

* "It's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick."

* "She'll be right."

* "And down from Kosiosco, where the pine clad ridges raise their torn and rugged battlements on high, where the air is clear is crystal, and the white stars fairly blaze at midnight in the cold and frosty sky. And where, around the overflow, the reed beds sweep and sway to the breezes, and the rolling plains are wide. The Man from Snowy River is a household word today, and the stockmen tell the story of his ride."

Tips to Surviving Australia

* Don't ever put your hand down a hole for any reason whatsoever.

* We mean it.

* The beer is stronger than you think, regardless of how strong you think it is.

* Always carry a stick.

* Air-conditioning.

* Do not attempt to use Australian slang, unless you are a trained
linguist and good in a fistfight.

* Thick socks.

* Take good maps. Stopping to ask directions only works when there are people nearby.

* If you leave the urban areas, carry several litres of water with you at all times, or you will die.

* Even in the most embellished stories told by Australians, there is always a core of truth that it is unwise to ignore.

so mal where are we, dont know mike better ask quick duck because he's a doyen on Australia.

p.s. Quick- you forgot if driving in Australia and you see a snake on the road line up both sets of tyres on it so it doesnt set it self to the underneath of the car and you dont have an unexpected visitor

 

[QuickDuck]

oh very true Buzz

Also, a lesson i learnt when i did a few drives from Sydney to Adelaide for the Grand Prix a few times......

If you overnight in Hay (midway point), be sure to leave town in the morning, AFTER all the trucks as they will have cleared away all the kangaroos from the middle of the road.
