I must tell you a story about the beginning of our QLD trip....
I laugh silly when I think about it...
Please meet Jenny.....
But Jenny, who
Khris and I met on the plane..
We chatted a lot, especially when we talked quilting...LOL
We quilters are everywhere...he he.
We chatted the whole way from Adelaide to Brisbane
When we arrived at Brisbane Airport,
we emptied my bags of all the
Huggles...except one!
Then Khris went off with her ride to visit her friends..
and I met
Ethel for the first time...Lots of HUGS
Jenny had a 3 hour wait to get a connecting flight.
bet she wondered who these mad women quilters were...LOL
So coffee it was, and lots of chatting
with Ethel, Jenny and I. About an hour later it was
Vicki's
turn for her flight to arrive. So all 3 of us went to go upstairs to
be there for Vicki when she arrived, except the Airport security
would let me take my large suitcase upstairs..
So Jenny (I had only known her 3 hours remember) offered to mind my bags...
So I left all my bags with this complete stranger.
I proceeded to go upstairs after being drug tested again...LOL
I had lots of funny looks..Why???.. I was wearing a princess crown..
I promised Vicki I would meet her as a princess.. he he.. and I did
When she arrived, Ethel and I hugged her lots
and laughed at my silly crown...
Off we went to go get Vicki's bags and pick mine up...
Vicki was horrified I had left them with a stranger to mind them...
If she wants to wear my big girl panties I said...
good luck, they won't fit I am 3 times her size...LOL
Jenny was waiting patiently with all my bags...
and all my knickers were accounted for...he he
Ethel and Vicki took all our bags to the car...they were heavy
full of lots of goodies to share.
We had another lot of coffee's with Jenny and chatted some more
while we WAITED for
Fee to arrive about 2 hours later.
Jenny's plane left about half an hour before Fee's arrived.
So being friendly Nutters that we are...
We went back upstairs, I was drug tested again..
and walked Jenny to her departure lounge and waited till she boarded.
You would have thought we were her family....
we hugged and said our goodbyes..
All three of us waving madly Nutter style... he he
(Hope to have a coffee again Jenny - if your game???)
Then we went to wait for the arrival of Princess Fee...
There we stood Vicki, Myself and Ethel....in that order.
We must have looked like the 3 Stooges...WAITING WAITING
One with a princess crown on her head..he he
Then Fee's plane arrived....
we waited till we saw Fee and started waiving madly..
jumping up and down with excitement
we kept waiving and Fee was waiving madly back....
you can just imagine it!!!
Then Fee walked straight past us and greeted the woman behind us.....
Oh No that's was not our Fee....LOL
we just lost the plot then, almost cackled ourselves silly, laughing so madly..
tears running down our faces from laughing so much..
I almost needed those extra knickers there and then...
so funny....we got the wrong lady and
almost mugged her with our hugs...he he
Fee did arrive to see these 3 cackling women...
we waived crazily and and yes we did hug her madly...
But oh so funny....
Fee said maybe she'd send a decoy to see if we were sane..
well we are sort of sane Fee
unless you call it insane that 3 cackling crazy women
can almost mug a complete stranger..LOL....
Oh boy that was the start of a fabulous weekend...
we laughed constantly... what a funny weekend..
Happiness to you
Hugs
