How did you find it on eBay?? I typed in "fish extender" and got nada.

Thanks.

Chris I came up with nothing too when I typed fish extender. I did a DIS search and people recommended searching wall pockets, hanging organizer, and every variation of those. My came up under mickey wall hanging, and I think I also checked "search in descriptions" Good Luck! It wasn't easy LOL!

amycnew is the seller I got it from and she has others up too.

Diane I am so glad you DD's recital was great! I do love the recitals so....if I wasn't so old and fluffy I'd take dance classes myself!


To all my chat buddies: During the recital there was a tween boys dance performance. They danced to "Do Your Chains Hang Low" which of course if just of variation of our Chat Anthem "Do Your Ears (sp) Hang Low" I swear I bust a gut! Were we not just singing this in chat the evening before. It's official, my family thinks I gone insane!!

I hope it was supposed to be funny or you would have looked like you were making fun of them!! I would have died laughing, too.

Thanks for the link, Julie. We're really looking forward to Cartegena.

in 10 nights you lost 10 pounds on a disney cruise. i been on one disney cruise so far i gained 10 pounds on a short 7 nighter. this year i go on a 14 night. than next year i go the 15 night. i wonder how much im going to gain on them cruises

DW and I were trying to figure out how the folks at Disney managed to make the seats in the Walt Disney Theater shrink as the week went on. (Must have been magic, it had nothing to do with all those lobster tails and desserts.)

Stace luckily it was a hip hop song and it was blasting. The boys were actually really good too, I just couldn't get passed the TOAL Chat Song! BTW the second fish extender (green) was the one that I won only it was pink! I think I'm going to have to keep my eyes open for a few more, it's my understanding that some people's were stolen (darn STs)

I just saw the photos of Claire on the 10 Night Southern thread - they're brilliant !! You should post them on here as well.

David

I've been convinced!

5dd & 23dd (the 23dd is only going on the 15nt if her and her then DH can get their own stateroom)

The graduate!

Hi Steph

You lost 10 lbs because of all the running around you did for everyone !!! Your stateroom was an open-house constantly. If adults weren't there it was the teens!!!

And it was so much fun!! And if we are fortunate enough to get a suite everyone is welcome, again! We are very high on the list so.... there is a chance.
There were a couple of the sea days that I never even made it outside!

We've still got the door magnet you made for us on display in the kitchen 8 months on !!!
David

I'm so glad! The door in the kitchen that leads to the garage is covered in all the magnets that were on our door! It makes me happy everytime I go that way.

On the flip-side of this my son want to go to a USA University - after his time on the 10 Night Southern last September he is VERY interested in marrying an American girl as well !!

David

What is he wanting to study? There are a lot of good Universities near us..... He would have a family to hang with!

We used zip ties to secure ours onto the fishie thing. If they'd wanted to steal ours, they'd have to bring a knife or scissors. One of the other Blabbermouths provided the zip ties.

How sweet! Thanks for posting!!

I've been reading the "Davidson Blog" from the Med cruise. I know we've discussed whether or not they really are or are not having fun....and that perhaps it's just their writing style...but frankly, they do not look as though they are enjoying themselves. Such a long way to go and a lot of money to spend to NOT have a good time!

I've actually found the flights back from the UK to Chicago to be rather calm. Nothing like my transpacific ones to Japan or Hong Kong.

And those are so looonnnggg.... At least on one our flights home from HK our plane had lots of empty seats and we were able to strech out!

DH has had the misfortune of being on a flight to HK that lasted over 24hrs...(usually 20 - 21, 16 to Japan & then 4 1/2 to HK)

Your daughters are beautiful! So when the older one's wedding??

 

[Stepht5]

How sweet! Thanks for posting!!

Thank you!

Here's another one of my girls (she'll be 17 on the cruise) with our fish extender that we made. We made a couple for some other DIser's, too....

It's 1:35 am here in the UK and I'm still awake writing staff reports (that time of year again).

Anyway, knowing how much we all love cake on this thread I thought I'd let you know about a new car advert / commercial that's just came on TV a few nights ago. It's for a Skoda Fabia and the car they use in the advert is a life-size model made entirely out of cake - the actual advert shows them baking it and putting it together.

In this photo, it's the orange one on the left (it's VERY life-like).

There's even an engine all made out of cake.

What do you think of that then ?????

David

 

[Stepht5]

I think it could be the magnet we made for you??? Does it say David and Helen????? We only did those for a few people we liked. John says no more next cruise. He spent hours making magnets.

He's talking about the *official* DIS magnet -- with our logo, etc.... I brought it to them on the ship so that they wouldn't have to carry it from overseas and then keep it nice for the week that they were in WDW.

Thank you!
She is getting married in Oct (in Cancun). Here is a pic of her and her df taken at Six Flags --

That's the one - if you remember I said that we couldn't get printable magnetic paper here in the UK so you did one for me.

Here it is.......
