BRILLIANT!! Cool Please take pictures and post them that would be awesome. :2thumbsup;

Well everyone, RichardMEL is gorgeous. He is such a nice guy and SINGLE girls.....
We are going to meet again soon and I know I am going to have my wrists slapped but no photos this time. As some of you know, I am just out of hospital and I don't want my first posted pic to be of me looking on the pale and shabby side. I know....very vain....but the gorgeous RichardMEL understood.
I have to say, I didn't quite know how to take it when he looked straight through me. He said I looked nothing like my photo on my work website....he said my skin was darker than he was expecting. Hey, I am a typical Aussie - blonde, tan, blue eyes. The pic he saw of me was probably taken in the dead of winter when the tan had faded. Anyhow, I had to do the uncomfortable introduction....
So RichardMEL seems very contented with his lot and very accepting of his situation. Very cool. It seemed to bother him a tad that I smiled so much but when you get to my age, you look younger when you smile and much older when you frown so trust me, I smile a lot. Didn't want everyone thinking he was out for a drink with his mother. LOL.
Anyhow, pictures next time, I promise.

This is so neat.
How wonderful that you 2 got to meet.
who would have ever thought that kidney disease would bring with it so many new friends?
-
When I get to Australia we are going to party-hardy!

Sorry it's taken me a while but here I am with my half of the story :)
Yes, Lucinda is as lovely in person as she is in cyberspace... even if I was a bit surprised by how tanned she was because she kept complaining she was so pale! :)
We had a lovely dinner and lots of talking and it was lovely to spend time getting to know her better.
Sorry no pictures... I honestly didn't take my camera, and we decided a phone cam wasn't acceptable..
next time!

Which particular "neck of the woods" are you pair ??
I'm between Bris & the Goldie, so if anyone's up here any time..... ;D
I've managed one 'meet-up' with a fellow Ozzie dialyser, so far....
I haven't been on here too much recently, mainly due to my on-going "adventures in dialysis".
My new fistula (right fore-arm) is scheduled for Jan 8th, so I'm into hospital on Sunday to get a
dialysis session in the day before the op.
Fingers x'd for me everyone !!! :2thumbsup;

I think that's great, Lucinda and RichardMEL. It would be so fun to meet the people from IHD. I've always wanted to go to Australia, now I have another reason to go there, to meet all of you!
Best of luck to you, Bear, we'll be thinking of you!
