Sept / Oct 2011

[hellosue]

I was thinking Centrelink were fast this year i rang them yesterday to tell them we were going out of the country for family tax benefit and the lady asked me if i wanted them to reconcile because DH's tax return already showed on their system we only had it done Monday so now we get our top up payment this Monday

only 15 days to go for us

Congrats on top up ..... and with only 15 days to go.... bring it on....
As a sole parent I should get top up next week if last year was anything to go by plus I still have do my own Tax Return.... spent heaps on Orthodontist and School Supplies so hope for a good return (need some spending money)

My dh is the office manager at his work so he had all the group certificates done on the 1st of July and had already booked in an appointment with the accountant

Did you girls ring for Wishes or do it online? I might be too late anyway....

 

[tapdancer]

What is the best time to book the Wishes Dessert Party? It shows available times from 7pm to 9pm I am thinking about 8.20?

 

[hellosue]

Aussie Mumma,

My Agent Emailed me and was ready to book as well but we changed our minds ....

 

[AussieMumma]

All of our dates are coming up unavailable online, do you think it's worth ringing in the morning to double check?

ETA: Just booked lunch at Mumma Melrose's (Fantasmic package) so I am happy that we at least got that!! We have already got the Pirates and Pals Fireworks package booked so if I can't get Wishes Dessert party I won't be too devestated

Just thought i would let you all know that i called and booked a Fantasmic package for one of the extra nights it does not show up to let you book it online but they have booked it for me over the phone the CM offered me all 3 restaurants we ended up with a worse time than we had but a much better day for us they have also extended the EM hours that night till midnight and all 6 of us booked together instead of 3 different bookings

I just wanted you all to know that when we arrive our fist purchase will be 's and lots of them so funny to hear the kids looking forward to buying again

Thanks Franrose - I've added your trip to the front page. We're at POFQ at the same time! And perhaps heading home the same day. Are you flying back Qantas via Dallas?

No - Virgin America direct. Will have to say hi at POFQ though!

 

[Franrose]

Does the Wishes Dessert party = the Tomorroland Terrace fireworks dessert party?

And (here comes my cluelessness lol) if you book it, does that mean you need to do MK that day or can you come in from any park? I'm guessing it means it needs to be a MK day...
