Poor Boetie. All these air miles are killing your immune system. Maybe it's just as well that we are staying with you in Sydney for a while till the old boy recovers!! Glad we have the opportunity to stay in your home before you sell it, tho! The pool is lovely! (Do you have a pool???) Glad to hear that Nat and Steve are well and settled. Now eat this chicken soup - it will make you all better! More Orange Juice? Sure, no problem, will just squeeze some fresh for you. Arn't the oranges in Aussie real nice and sweet? Yummy!

Needed to refresh the page. I don't suppose there are any of you out there that are clever enough to help me to do this once a month? No....nope..I thought not. Ah, to be the one with the brains. Well the mad month of March is fast approaching and starting to affect the family. Antonio is catching stuff, Di is not feeling very well. All that change in weather. When Di left Cape Town there was a heat wave with temperatures hitting high 30's every day. She is now trying to get used to the cooler weather. Everybody gets older in March. Little Kio, (Di's grandson) will be 3 years old on the 4th. Little Carole, (Di's baby sister) will be 43 years old on the 13th. Antonio and Ron (Di's big brother and husband) will both be 53 years old on the 15th and dear sweet little Di will only be 46 years young on the 27th. "Hey, Carole, while the Boetie is layed up in bed, why don't we go spend some of my money and see if we can get a quick face lift, tummy tuck, boob firming job and liposuction?" Di is jumping up and down with the thought of reviving her youthful looks. Carole is out the door before Di ends the sentence. So off the 2 sisters go knowing that they are going to be far more confident in hitting those Sydney beaches with their new look.

Well - THAT was worth every penny!! See how young we look? Botox is a brilliant option - no lines on our foreheads anymore. We look as young as Cliff Richard!! How about my belly button ring? Looking cool now the stretch marks have been lazered away and the fat suctioned out, the tummy trimmed and tucked - phew! Watch me around those poles now!! Fabulous. How are you Boetie? Taking the chicken soup and OJ as lil sissie ordered? GOOD - so which lap dancing club are we hitting tonight? Or Greek restaurant? Or Arabic, Lebanese, North African, etc. Need to move my hippies to shake my booty and show off my new belly ring!!! Yee-hah - here we come!!

wELL MY SISTERS, how are you both and you family? Yes I'ts me just back from Hawaii. We had a great time. We met a couple of girls there, they were sisters. I gave them my e-mail address, antoniogerada@aol.com OR beerdownunder@aol.com They seemed a nice couple, enjoying there company. Funney, I thought they could have been my sisters, my only sisters. However they were not, so I related to them my story of once having two lovely sisters that were much younger than I, and that we were kind of estranged in some way, not by our making but circumstance. As our family goes we are the remaining unit but so far apart in our thoughts and ways. We once had the same religion, we also shared the same parents, but for some reason beyond us we are estranged. Maybe our paths have taken us to distant shores but I still cannot comprehend our apartness? Anyway I know that my younger sister and I just had our birthdays and that my other sister is about to have hers, so happy birthday Carole and Gloria, I wish you every happiness. But the best happiness I wish us is thst we start communicating as a family, from now. Please lets do that via proper e-mail and communicate as a family instead of through make believe. I love my sisters very much and future events happining want to share in the intimacies and ups and downs of family relationships. You know my e-mail address so give me a line personally however good or bad, let it out, I will respond and in time we may grow closer, that is my wish. Life is short and it should be filled with the love and understanding of brothers and sisters. This is my last input to this story, but I want to continue our relationship via private e-mail, can you please do that for me, all my love, Antonio.
