Giggle's Brisbane blog

4th March 2010

Hey Groovers and Gigglers...

I had special visitors with me today - Darryl and Michelle from Central Qld CQ came with me and Sonya to the hospital today. 

Lots of kids today: in the clinic I met Reuben and Darcy. My mate Colby was there, but I wasn't able to see him so if you are reading this Colby - HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Down on the wards I got to catch up with Sienna and Charlie and my mate Logan (the one who has a dog called Diesel) and little Rylee (she even blew me a kiss!)

Then up on Turner I got to see Rhianna and I met Danien and my other mate Colby.

Today's joke was from Sonya, so excuse it if you don't laugh - Why didn't the Teddy Bear eat his dinner? Because he was stuffed! Hahehahehahehahehaheha!

Hey gotta go but keep your Giggle's on and I will catch up all when I am next up at the hospital in 2 weeks.

Have a great day, and remember you can always have a giggle with Giggle!

 Love Giggle.

Sorry I missed last week guys, I was feeling a little under the weather, but this week I was back and Wow, what a great day up at the RCH Brisbane today!

We got to see so many people and meet lots of new friends. I got to catch up with Bonnie who I hadn't seen in a while. Colby was there today and we had a great time catching up with him. He's a great mate! Jacob was there too and we had a good laugh. I met Charlie for the first time and he was cool - he can make an amazing elephant sound! Awesome! And my 'biggest fan', Apana was there too. Then up at Turner I get to see some new friends including Andrew and Hayden.

Up in the clinic we caught up with Sharde, Thomas and then I met Jackson and his sister Isabella. And then I had a GREAT surprise...

My little buddy, Liam, was up at the clinic today. Yeah, he's doing really well, his hair is growing back and he had lots to say - even if it is only 1 year old gobbldey gook talking, we had a great conversation. It was so good to see you, Liam - you are a true champion!

Have a great week yáll - and we will see you next week!

Before I go: What do you do when you see a 300kg Grizzly Bear in your bed? Sleep on the couch! Hahehahehahehaheahe!

And a joke from Jacob - Why did the cow have a big nostril? Because he had large hooves!

Till then, remember you can always have a giggle with Giggle!

Love Giggle

Whew-eee! Howdy everyone! That's me trying to be a cowboy. We just can't find a hat to fit my head. Guess I will have to see if I can get my tricycle turned into a horse instead Hahehahehaheha!

My visit to the hospital today was awesome fun.

The clinic was too packed for me to fit in today so if you were up there and I missed you, I am SO SORRY!! I hope I can catch up with you some time soon.

Banksia started with Colby today and we had a great laugh with my new joke (see below). He was wearing his Giggle shirt and it was great to have a laugh with him. Then I met a new friend, Andrew. Andrew laughed at me before I even said anything! I guess that when someone says that I am funny that they really mean I look funny! Hahehahehaheha! After Andrew, some girls played me a song on their musical instruments (xylophone and keyboard - what a cool and unique band!) before I caugh up with my little make Jake with his duck called Ducky and his Penguin called Pengy!

Turner was just as fun. I me a new little mate who had made his own Lego guitar and was getting ready to Rock with the Wiggles. I tried to get him to join my band, The Giggles, but he wasn't having a bar of it! Hahehahehaheha! Danielle was next and it was great to see her again. Then last but not least, I dropped in on the other Colby. He had just been on TV the day before in the Wonder Factory talking about Transformers. And talk he can talk and talk and talk... Hahehahehaheha! You are cool, Colby!

This weekend I am off to the Battery World conference at Twin Waters, Coolum! Look out for me travelling in style in the GiggleMobile! (I love that 0 makes me feel like Batman!)

Hey, before I go: Why should you never take a bear to the zoo? Because they much prefer to go to the movies! Hahehahehahea!

See you next week and remember: You can always have a giggle with Giggle!

Love, Giggle.

Hey everyone!

Wow, was it a busy day up at the Brisbane Royal Children's Hospital today or what!?! So many friends to see - old and new - and lots of laughs to be had by all.

First stop was Banksia where I met Liam and then Edyn from Northern NSW. She was cool - she lives near the beach. Then I got to catch up with my mate Logan and find out how his dog Diesel was going. Logan's cool! My mate Jacob was making some stickers today. Then I caught up with Georgina and Arayana before I hung out with my old mate Colby. Colby rocks and is a huge Spiderman fan. His brother started Grade 1 yesterday. Awesome!

Then it was down to the outpatients before i was back to Turner Ward to meet a new friend. Danielle was with her mum and was an exceptional air tickler. I giggled so hard it was so funny!

Next week I will be back for more giggles, so I look forward to seeing you then!

By the way, which dinosaur always came first? Triceri-TOPS!

Hahehahehahehaheha!!

Till next time, keep laughing and remember you can always have a giggle with Giggle.

Hello Everyone!

I have just had the best day visitng all my friends up at the Brisbane Royal Children's Hospital.

First stop was Turner Ward where I met Mennita and Luke for the very first time.

Then I dropped into the clinic where my great little mate Dylan and I read a book. I shared a joke with Joey and said hello to Rabiya.  Then I had a laugh off with Maddison and Dylan. I gotta tell ya, their giggles were probably better than mine!

 Madison & Giggle

After that, we popped down to Banksia Ward. My mate Colby was there again and we got to have a chat. Get better soon, you Web Slinger...(shhh, your secret is safe with me!).

Colbby & Giggle Jan 21

Ethan was there too and had the most incredible air tickle I ever had. He just kept ticking and ticking and ticking and I kept giggling and giggling and giggling until I nearly lost me breath! My old friend Jacob showed me how good he is with a rubber band gun! And then I met a brand new friend - Logan. Logan has a dog called Diesel and has a 4 wheel bike. You rock, Logan - give Diesel a big pat for me!

Wow, it was such a busy day and I am pooped. But before I go - What do you call an African animal who complains all the time? A WHINE-oserous! Hahehahehahehaheha!

Have a great day, remember laughter is the best medicine, and don't forget, your day is always better once you've had a giggle with Giggle!

'Til next week,

Giggle.

I caught up with my mate Joab and Ethan and Ethan (yeah, there were two of them!). I surprised Apana by remembering her name. I dropped in on Bonnie and Sienna and had a giggle with them. And then I met a new friend called Lily who had the most amazing giggle that she even had a better giggle than me!

Hey everyone!

I have just come back from another Thursday up at Royal Children's Hospital in Brisbane. We got to every ward and the clinic today and had a great time with all of our friends.

A special hello to my mate Jacob who was reading a book called the Three Little Bush Pigs. We had a great laugh making the funniest pig noises you ever heard!

Before I go, here's one of the jokes I had today:

What do you call a cow eating your grass? A lawn MOO-er! Hahehahehahehahe!

Don't forget you can get a new joke a few times a week on my Twitter: www.twitter.com/GiggleCQ

Now, I'm off to Melbourne and then through to Adelaide where I will be attending CQ South Australia's Annual Cherry Ball. It should be a fun night - and I get to dress up (for me that means wearing a bow tie!) But I will be back Thursday for more fun with my friends at RCH. Might see you there!

Have a great week and remember you can always have a giggle with Giggle, because Laughter Is The Best Medicine!

See ya's.

Love, Giggle.

Hey everyone!

I have just come back from another HOT visit to the RBCH - and boy has it been hot! That's okay, because my circuits are cool enough to handle it!

First stop was the Wonder Factory, as usual, where we had a great time catching up with Haleena and her mum. It was so good to see them, and Haleena had her friend Billy with her. He was cool, although he didn't say much - because he was a toy!

GiggleNov5Haleena  GiggleDec3HaleenaAnthony

Up to the wards, and we caught up with Bailey, Beau and Sam. I also met Madison who has friends I know in Toowoomba! She had a joke for me too - Knock knock. Who's there? Boo. Boo who? Oh, stop crying! Hahehahehahehaheha!!

Later I caught up with Ethan and his sister Haley, and with my mate Liam. Then I saw Lakisha and Jacqui. I thought Lakisha might like to race me (she was in her wheel chair) but I chickened out!

Thanks everyone for another great day. Catch you next time!

And remember, you can always have a giggle with Giggle! ESPECIALLY, when you follow me on Twitter - www.twitter.com/gigglecq

Hey everybody!

I have had a great week this week... there was the Giggle Ball in Armidale on Saturday, and then on Monday I spent some time with my doctor in Sydney having a check up. Everything is GREAT now and I have never felt better - and just in time to visit my friends at RCH today!

Today I met some new friends Ishmael, Haleena and Connor and caught up with some old friends like Joey and Maddie. There were jokes and laughs and lots of Giggle badges flying around. AWESOME!

Here's a riddle for you:

A guy arrives in town on Friday. He stays there three days and leaves on Friday. How does he do that? ................................................FRIDAY IS A HORSE! Hahehahehaheha!

Have a great week everyone and I will see you all next week. Don't forget that laughter is the best medicine!

Thanks for having a giggle with Giggle!

Love, Giggle.

Up in the wards, I saw my good mate Liam and met a new friend, Levi. Then I spend some time with Georgina and with Lakeisha too. She is from Townsville!

Then I met a new friend, Quinn. I reckon he's my twin - we're the same age and he has a bike too.

A special "Hi" to all my friends at the Wonder Factory and down at the RCH School too - they just celebrated their 90th brithday and are the oldest hospital school in the country! Congratulations.

I have just come back from a great time visiting the Royal Children's hospital.

I helped Aaron with his homework and met Lachlan who told me this GREAT joke:

Q: Why did the one armed man cross the road?

A: To get to the second-hand shop!

Hahehaheha! Thanks Lachlan!

It was pretty quiet today, but I got to meet a rabbit named Stompy! I also saw my mate Liam, and had a great giggle with Baby Jordan and her Mum!

My joke for today was so funny - it made everyone laugh and was made up for me by Zane G who is 7 (and is Mark, my operator's, son!):

Q: Why did the rabbit eat insects?

A: Because he was Bugs Bunny!

Hahehahehaheha!!!

Have a great week everyone and we will see you all next Thursday.

And remember: Have a giggle with Giggle!

A: TIME TO GET A NEW BED!!

What a fun time today up at the hospital seeing some of my old friends and meeting some new ones. It was great to see Samantha again this week up at the clinic. She was wearing all purple. I tried to remember some jokes about purple but couldn't think of any.

Then we rode up to the Wards. Up there I met Vienna and Levi. My mate Liam was there. And Cathy, the head nurse, introduced us to Scruffy the robot dog! He was very cool.

Then we met Dominic who was playing Wii with his Grandma. What a cool Grandma!

Down on the wards, I saw my little mate Liam and dropped in on Sam and Brianna. I also got to meet Taylem for the first time! Taylem told us that he had waited for 7 years to meet me, so I was really nervous; but we had great fun and his Mum took lots of photos! I hope she sends some to us!
