Reminder for Perthies

[justginger]

The lasting bling impact for me? HOT's necklace. I NEED one. Emphasis on the NEED.

Have you seen this one?

I saw. Oh goodness did I see. Too pricey for me though - I think the higher than normal color (well, for the antique stones I am used to) drives the price up past my level of Christmastime justification.

I told DH about your necklace. He literally looked at me, straight in the face, and then turned away and walked into the shed. I think tinkering with his boats makes him feel better about my bling obsession. Whatever works - better than him tinkering with divorce papers!

I need that old emotie:

THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICS!!!

We didn't take any...

*Quietly skulks out of thread*

What?!??!? WHAT?!?!?

Sigh. I woke up all the way around the world smiling because I knew there'd be some gorgeous bling pictures to enjoy. And... now... (Sniff) nothing...



I guess I'll just have to be happy because I have two incredible boys, an awesome hubby, a warm house filled with laughter and delicious food. You know, that kinda stuff. Not an awesome 8-diamond-rings-on-one-hand bling picture, but it'll have to do.

I guess the rapid approach of the end of the world on Friday is a blessing in disguise!

 

[shanhoops]

I don't think the chat ever stopped long enough for pictures to be taken! We were quite an excited bunch!

Rest assured there was some amazing bling on display! I wondered what the waitstaff thought of us with everything plonked out in the middle of the table? Lol. They had to clear spaces to put the food!

Why yes indeed, it truly must be a blessing in disguise!! Thank heavens we only need to suffer for 5 more days - phew!!

Good one, JG!!!

Sorry I'm slow to the party- I've gotta get my Internet connection sorted. It was lovely to meet you all and look forward to doing it all again sometime soon x

 

[GlamMosher]

I too had a great time, it was fabulous to meet everyone and to put faces to names!

Sorry I had to dash, susimoo. I hope you weren't hit on too many times whilst you waited for hubby.

Thanks for organising it ginger!

 

[Rae~]

This sounds like a lot of fun!

I hope to make it to a GTG someday too... more likely an Aussie east coast one, though.

 

[PhillyMcGee]

Oh I'm so disappointed I couldn't come I got delayed doing some stuff out at my horses in the morning, so by the time that was sorted it was too late for me to get home, changed and into the city

We will have to organise another one soon please!

 

[ZahraLeyla]

I'm so sorry I missed this, would have been lovely to meet all of you. I am still, sadly, ringless at the moment. Perhaps we could organise something for the new year? I hopefully will have my ring back by then.

Oh no! I was looking forward to your GTG pics!

I must say, you Aussies talk/type funny I don't realize it when it's one on one, typed in mixed with everyone else's posts.. but this whole thread is full of funny talk! I love it!!

Chance would be a fine thing!!

No, he arrived earlier than expected so I didn't get to finish my drink either!!

We will just have to make up for it next time.

To everyone that went, it was wonderful to meet you and to everyone who didn't make it, can't wait to meet you in the new year.

 

[hawaiianorangetree]

It was fun! I'm still on a high, yet sorely regret not taking any pictures to ogle at between now and then next one.

Next time, I think we should have it at a Chinese restaurant at a round table where no one is left on the end, with a lazy Susan in the middle to put the jewels on for easier access.

I didn't even DARE mention Poppy or my aspirations for after KT has graduated. When I got home my DH told me it was time I cleaned the house! Ha ha

Oh dear. You must let us know when he can see out of his eye again.

Lol, what are we saying that's making you giggle?

I rarely LOL, but this one really set me off.

Oh snap! That's gold.

lolz.

does anyone do this in other states? say maybe QLD?

 

[Rae~]

I too would love a QLD meetup, although I'd have to travel to Brisbane (assuming that's where it's most likely to occur).

 

[justginger]

I don't know if I've ever seen one done on here - in fact, I think the two Perth meetups are the only ones I've seen in Australia. There are Aussies from all over here, it's just that no one has actually arranged a GTG in the other capital cities.

My SIL and fam live in Brissie - maybe I can visit them at the same time as a QLD meetup.

 

[hawaiianorangetree]

Would any Perth PSer's be willing to meet up with me in the City either Wednesday or Thursday afternoon after work to have a look at my DBTY? I want a second (or third?) opinion on the eye cleanliness of the diamonds. I could be over reacting, but I don't think I am, and would love another opinion.

 

[GlamMosher]

Woot! I'm in! Not that my opinion of the diamonds will help, but I am always happy to have a drink or something! Plus I owe Susimoo a glass of bubbles.

 

[chel180]

I'd love to too. Not sure what my opionions worth but I do wanna see your new necklace. I was planning I being in the city on Thursday afternoon.

I probably can on Thurs, HOT. Finish in Nedlands at 4, would be there 10-15 minutes later. DH would be in tow though.

 

[hawaiianorangetree]

Great! Thank you so much guys, I really do appreciate it.

Thursday is good. I finish at 4 in Subiaco, I'll catch the train into the City and be there by 20 past. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to meet?
