Hi Anna!

On Sunday November 15 1992, Anna Trahair wrote a message to Ian Howard:

 AT> you should try harder to get things up and going..but yeah if
 AT> everything is happy then enjoy it!!!

Well as they say there are plenty more fish in the sea :-)

 IH>> I usually just sit down without thinking and tinkle around for a
 IH>> bit.
 AT> Yeah..its a good feeling when you finally get a difficult bit under
 AT> control...

Couldn't agree more.  The challenge of mastering a good piano piece is really something - it certainly takes a lot of patience !

 AT> gets taken up with new classrooms...our library isn't really big
 AT> enough for the number of students either..we do run at different times
 AT> though..the junior part starts and finishes before the senior bit so
 AT> that its not too crowded...

We could do with a proper rotar type system at our school, especially at lunch time.  Unfortunately no one has yet come up with a suitable one  :-(

 AT> Like that sounds great...NOT!!! Hmm...I don't know if I'd want to go
 AT> to Germany...some Germans are ok and I shouldn't generalise but from
 AT> personal experience a lot of German people aren't super
 AT> friendly...

My mothers sister (My auntie) lives in Germany and has a French husband.  My cousins who are 5 and 7 speak almost perfect French and German and they even sing to me in English on my Birthday - I really like to see them when I can but its very difficult.  Do you have any relatives in far away lands ??

 AT> Have you seen Fawlty (sp?) Towers? The one with the
 AT> Germans...that's really funny...

Brilliant.  Anything with Jon Cleese in is always funny, the Fawlty Towers series is especially good.  How about the one with the dead man and the kippers :-)  Do you have Monty Python down under ??

 AT> Hmmm...Douglas Adams....what's he written???

A trilogy of 5 books.  The most famous is the first "Hitch-hikers Guide To The Galaxy", have you heard of that ??  He also wrote some other good books, all of which are very good.

 AT> haven't...hmm...the last book I read was To Kill A Mocking Bird which
 AT> I'd already read..the last thing I read was a magazine this

I may have to do that book as part of my English coursework this year !

 AT> morning...hmm...hey do you like Kylie Minogue or Jason Donovan or do
 AT> you want to send them back to Australia??

Aaarggghhhh.  No seriously though, Kylie is trying to be Madonna and Donovan is not so bad.  And yes, you can have them back as soon as possible :-)

 AT> Somewhere I've got a book about juggling...well I can juggle with 2
 AT> balls hehehe...but yeah three is too hard...I'd have to practice for a
 AT> while to get that...

Try it with one !  Thats certainly very hard :-)

 AT> Well after they got banned yeah my friend could still get them andwe'd
 AT> set them off at Guy Fawkes and New Years Eve...

When I was in France on my school holiday a friend of mine (Called Amanda incidentally) and I bought loads of massive fire-crackers and went down the beach and set them off!  It was great fun - the whole holiday was!

 AT> organised displays but even they go wrong like with the Moomba
 AT> festival they set some off and they went into the National Tennis
 AT> Centre and broke windows and melted plastic seats...

hehehe.  Sounds pretty distasterous :-)  The organised displays near us are in massive fields and we usually have a fair/fete in the evenings.  Its a good excuse to have a great time and see some good fireworks!

 AT> Food...hmm...I like spicy food (Thai, indonesian, Indian) Italian
 AT> food...chocolate..McDonalds hehehe..although the last time I had that
 AT> I felt a bit sick..but the caramel sundaes are yum!

Sounds good.  For some reason I have the urge to say - French ice-creams, especially lemon ones !

 IH>>> Smile for me when you read this message!
 AT>> :-) Smile!!!
 IH>> Thats better  :-)
 AT> Hehehehe.... :-)

Errr well can't really beat that :---)
And no I'm not an elephant !

 AT> I'm hungry!!! I haven't had brekkie yet! :-) I've been busy cleaning
 AT> my room, fish tank and just hanging around...I'll get something when
 AT> I've finished on here....

Well I am about to go to bed - Its 10:30 in the evening and its school tommorow so I should have crawled into my pit an hour ago!

Chat again !!
