Hi Girls

I hope you're all having a great weekend

I've just found out today that a friend of mine on the UK Community was on the Disney Magic, she said she'd had a great time, but she didn't mention about missing Castaway Cay. I know it's not the end of the world, but I'd be sad to miss Castaway Cay

I hope she's taken lots of photos of both ships in Nassau

We haven't done much today, it's bonfire night over here, so the girls have gone to see a firework display at the local park. As for me, if I wanted to see fireworks, then I'd wait for IllumiNations

Kelly, I'm so pleased that the storm didn't effect you

Enjoy the rest of your weekend

Hey Girls

Paul & I popped to the Disney Store this morning and bought a couple of things for Christmas

and Paul bought me the Pirates of the Caribbean calendar and this Stitch toy that I've been after

We've got a lazy afternoon ahead of us

Enjoy the rest of your weekend

Hey all.

So You Think You Can Dance was great yesterday.

We ended up with pretty good seats. Dead center of stage but quite a bit back. Still we were quite satisfied.

The only drawback was the screaming girls right behind us We soon learned to anticipate when they were gonna start the noise and covered our ears

I have some pictures but not really great ones.

I can't figure out how to resize them in photobucket to make them suitable to post here.

Anybody got any tips for me?? Another site maybe that I should try using instead

 

[mandymouse]

It sounds like you had fun Robin. Is 'So You Think You Can Dance' like a reality show ? Are celebs on it or just the public ? I look forward to seeing some photos

You are able to change the size of your photos on photobucket. Download your photos onto your computer, then before you download them onto photobucket change the size you want them. Where it says browse, just above it click on options, then choose the size you want, I usually download at messageboard 640x480, then browse and download your piccies

I hope that helps, as it looks a bit long-winded

I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend

 

[Cruisin]

awwww. now I see how that works with photobucket

thanks Mandy.

Colleen, tried to explain it to me too and I couldn't figure it out.

BUT I just found the proper place to change the size of pictures.

Maybe it will work now

Okay, I've told you about my crazy neighbour across the road. Here is where he put his garbage last week.

That is my car, legally parked on the street across from my house (no parking allowed on our side of the street)

Notice the extra LARGE sized motor home sitting in his driveway in front of which he could have easily placed his garbage

Hmmmmmm................ wonder why he didn't put it just a little bit closer??

So, I wanted to leave what was I do to? I picked up the can, moved it slightly and drove away.

Left his garbage sitting in the middle of the street.

The week before Liz's car was in that spot and no other car was in front of her.

He lined up all of his garbage in a nice neat row in front of her car

Now I'm gonna make sure that I'm parked there every Tuesday morning to see where he will choose to put it next.

 

[mandymouse]

Oh Robin, that is so funny I would do exactly the same, and make sure that I parked there every week

 

[Cruisin]

Mandy, you sound a lot like me

Now I will be looking forward to garbage day every week, just to see if he can find a new way to try and annoy me.

I think it's just funny though.

He's the one who looks like an idiot when I move my car and his garbage is sitting in the middle of the road

So You Think You Can Dance, is a show that supposedly finds America's Favorite Dancer. It is all just people who try out to be on the show, no celebrities.

They pick the top twenty and then slowly work their way down to the so called favourite.

I have pictures, I'm gonna post them in a bit.

The opening "signature" of the show on the big monitors above the stage.

Liz and I waiting for the show to start.

I saw this guy just hanging around when I went out looking for the bathroom

The stage and main floor before a lot of people arrived.

The top ten favorites:

Pasha:

Kameron:

Dominic:

Jaimie and Hok:

Neil (my favourite)

Jesus:

Sabra (the one chosen by the American public as their "favorite" dancer)

Great photos Robin, glad you enjoyed it despite the screaming girls

Have a lovely day everyone

 

[Cruisin]

Morning Mandy.

Have a good day too.

 

[disallday!]

I've fallen and I can't get up!!! SO FUNNY... way to handle your neighbor, Robin! Have you ever caught while he was putting his trash out? What is wrong with him... glad you've got a calm head! CW would make sure to place it right at his front door!

I love the pics of the dancers! Thanks for posting them... they were a real treat to see on a Monday morning (especially Neil). I didn't realize the dancers connections to last seasons dancers... like Lacey is Benji's (last season's winner) sis and Travis (last season's top 2 men) and Danny are 1/2 brothers (if I heard right). That is one of my all-time fav shows. BTW... cute pic of you and Liz

Mandy, I love the stuff you got for Christmas! Stitch is soo cute!

Kelly, I think he puts his garbage out in the morning.

If he puts it out the night before I could have some fun with it, under the cover of darkness

We've got a thread over on the UK Community about our Disney collections, so I posted these today, I thought you might like to see them too

Here are some of the things that I have around my living room

My DCL table with my fave photo with Captain Jack Sparrow and a glass that once held a Bahama Mama

My mantelpiece

My table

and finally my window sill

 

[disallday!]

Betsy, have fun cleaning! I'll be doing lots of when I get home... it's amazing how quickly it piles up!!

Robin, sounds like you're up to no good What have already started planning?

Mandy, that's a cute idea! I'll have to take pics of my Disney collection... it's not alot... but I do love my snowglobes!

 

[Cruisin]

Mandy, I can see that your house is definitely "Disneyfied"

Mine is too. Lots of Disney things, here and there around this house.

Kelly, I have no garbage exploits planned but it's garbage day tomorrow and I already have my car parked in the proper position

If he does it again, I think I'll just move it out closer to the middle of the road

 

[mandymouse]

If he does it again, I think I'll just move it out closer to the middle of the road

Oh Robin, you are naughty, but I like your way of thinking

Betsy - I hope you've managed to get through all the housework

Kelly - I would love to see some photos of your Disney collection

 

[disallday!]

What comes around, goes around... he needs to stop putting his trash there! You're being a very good person about this, how long has he lived there?

Mandy, I'll see if I can get some pics tonight to post!
