CRAPPY news NOW RAY'S LAST POSTING RAY PASSED Mon 16th Feb 26

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Thanks everyone.
Dottie, time to change the title of this thread once again… 🙄
… and we leave for Stage 1 (XPT to Sydney) in almost exactly 24 hours.
WEE-HEE! 🥳

I hope you both have a fantastic trip. What a great way to enjoy each other's company, watching the country through the window...

Enjoy. I hope they have stocked enough red.

Ray pref not to change the title yet because WE DO NOT KNOW what's ahead, once again you may prove them wrong :) But if you really do want it done I will. :)

"tanks" here--Ray & Joy,
Have a marvelous trip/journey over some very scenic parts of this marvelous country.
The rail trip is a great way to go, and such superb dining. It's very different from driving a motorhome around the block.
\Love you both- - - -Keith.
I'm now 87 years old, having experienced another birthday, and I'm still living in WA, single (gave up looking), white hair, no teeth, no money, no worries.
I plan to have another birthday next year.

Sorry everyone the post I put up about Ray's aka Greymomads passing has disappeared so I have joined the info onto his last thread.
As you all know Ray was a fighter as well as our valued sub editor and he along with his humour will be missed greatly but he knew his time would be up soon. Joy said he passed away gently and was at peace with Joy and his family around him. He passed on the 16th Feb 2026 after his well fought fight with the dreaded cancer after many years. If you leave any condolence messages here I will pass them all onto Joy. R.I.P. Ray

I posted something earlier when news of Ray's passing had occurred. It went something like this.
Even though we knew that Ray had a limited time left, it was still a shock to hear that he had passed.
I don't think I will ever be able to read some of our bad English without ever thinking of him. He will be missed.
Our most sincere condolences to Joy and the family.
RIP Ray.
Cheers
