Hi JG Tatts is short for Tattslotto our version of Lotto. I didn't win. Alice

Alice I bet they all thought you were getting some Tattoo's when you mentioned Tatts...

Yes all we will get all this Election propaganda for the next five weeks, and this will be twice for me in just a few months as I was in Scotland in the lead up to the General Election in the UK and then the result of a hung parliament and the coalition arrangements, that drove me nuts as it was on all the media day and night, at least Julia is a good looking women and a very smart lady indeed, and she can handle herself against anyone in Parliament at Question time, it could have been worse if she looked like Maggie Thatcher, and of course on the other side Tony Abbot cuts a fine figure in his Budgie Smuggler swimming shorts when he is catching a wave, or even in his Lycra riding a bike, he will probably appeal to all the Willie Watchers...We are lucky of course to have gotten through the world financial crisis unscathed with no jobs lost or no high unemployment, and without the massive debt other western economies have, so I do hope we keep the government we have at present....

Hi Jack

You have been very quiet recently I thought you had gone on holiday again, you are probably right about the government and I hope Julia wins only because she is a woman and it would be great not only for us but Australia would be on the world map as having a Woman Prime Minister, now I am not going to mention it again. Alice

Well I am going to watch the full series of STILL GAME for the next 5 weeks.

thats a great idea better than watching the election coverage and a great programme

Hi Kate... I have seen most of the Still Game Videos but I don't watch a lot of TV anyway, to many repeats, I thought you would be off to Paisley soon anyway and miss all the electoral crap.. We will be going up to Queensland in a couple of weeks myself and be out every night at various clubs and restaurants so I will be oblivious to what's going on in the lead up to the election, I hope you have a great time on your trip, and the weather is kind to you... Remember the postal vote Ha Ha ... Jack..
