Mishy Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Do we need guides? I can always take 3 days off to go shopping Unless you guys have plans.. let me know and I'll take the required time off... Cam, Steve, can we come look at your stunners?

Jess Posted August 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I don't have a guide yet, does a street directory count? I have my sister alongside, she is a shopping freak!, you know clothes - the works! I really don't want to follow her around the shops all day everyday, I would prefer Aquariums I will have to let her know she is in for a fish trip either that or we can ditch her at a shopping mall all day The only plans are her shopping from what I have gathered :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mishy Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Hmmm... you said 3-7th eh? i think i need some time off :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 :P don't know if i can take any time off ATM. Maybe ... Will check diary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettabegood Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Jess, maybe you could tell your sister that you're also on a shopping trip when you go to Melbourne. She can shop for clothes in the morning, and you can shop for bettas in the afternoon. That's fair, I think. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mishy Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Nam suggest that DFO (direct factory outlet), Brand smart, Chadstone and Highpoint may keep your sister preoccupied while we go fish trawling... what do you think Jess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 :P DFO's I must admit I love them!! Sounds great Mish! Show me the Fishies!! (I just discoverd Luna park is not open when we are there bugger!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mishy Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 The DFO down here has a pet store in it so i spend most of my time there staring at their fish... cramped they may be, they seem happy together.

Callatya Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 I'm umming and arring... there is something in october, i know it, but I cannot remember what or when... *GRRR* i think it might be bead and gem or something *pout* i hate decisions, i really do. He's probably right, it'd be about the same if not more in petrol. If we are gunna do it, flying would be better, and faster :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbies Betta Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 plus driving for 8 hrs just plain suks. I've been to the other side of Australia in a car (darwin) and NEVER again. plus been to QL, NSW, and Vic, all car trips. I think my parents just liked squishing us up in the back (but we got our own bak in the form of noise, very loud noise ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
