you'' find you can glide as good as any chipmunk.

"How dare you", she intoned"There is nothing embarrassing about the Really Special Possum Cooks Association . Even the Ranga not in the lodge :stirring pot: has tasted our delights"

 

"Not so", said Krudd the dud, "I remember when.............

"I proposed that possum-stew should be outlawed to save the poor little critters from the chopping block, because you never know when you'll cop it in the back.

Having said that, I must admit that Therese and I do enjoy sitting by a log fire on a cold night, with our possum slippers on, while enjoying a glass of port. But that contradiction, I simply put down to an occupational norm"

but decided there were more ways skin a rabbit.....or a lizzard as the case maybe.As thoughts tuned to skinning, he looked at his bare and calloused feet and wandered how the old blue tongue hiding amongst the potplants back home would look as a pair of boots.

But i've had a pair of those for years retorted El Ratto indignantly. BigPete and I, each got a pair from an op shop years ago. They had a few extra pairs that we going to introduce as the hottest item in the clear-prop shop, but the proprieter slithered away from the idea of making an extra couple of bucks.

Times have changed you have to realise, we now have this young gun on board from the Cecil Hills area, who's selling possum skin booties for the poor peasants who love winter flying, but don't have an onboard heater, or a rotoryaxe powerplant thats low on coolant.

Ahlocks added, "don't know what you blokes are whinging about, it's always 50 degrees in my cabin, maybe it's time I took a trip to Supercheap as coolants on special, and that may stop the soles of my shoes peeling off".

Welcome to our forums MFlyer,

It's great to hear from you.

It was interesting to read your post, but remember-----a slow job takes a long time:laugh:

Never the less, stick with it my friend, you'll be very proud of the final outcome, i'm sure.

Keep us posted, we'd always be pleased to hear of the progress you make, even if there are a few hick-ups along the way.

Kind regards

Dear Grand-daughter,

The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a 'Honk if you love Jesus' bumper sticker ..

I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting...

So, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.

Boy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed.

I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in thought about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the light had changed.

It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have noticed.

I found that lots of people love Jesus!

While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy, and then he leaned out of his window and screamed, 'For the love of God!'

'Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!'

What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!

Everyone started honking!

I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all those loving people.

I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!

There must have been a man from Surfers Paradise back there because I heard him yelling something about a sunny beach..

I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air..

I asked my young teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant.

He said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.

Well, I have never met anyone from Hawaii , so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign right back.

My grandson burst out laughing.

Why even he was enjoying this religious experience!!

A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that they got out of their cars and started walking towards me.

I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed.

So, grinning, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, and drove on through the intersection.

I noticed that I was the only car that got through the intersection before the light changed again and felt kind of sad that I had to leave them after all the love we had shared.

So I slowed the car down, leaned out the window and gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away. Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!!

Will write again soon,

Love, Grandma

A man walks into Ann Summers to purchase some see-through lingerie for his wife, as a special birthday present.

He is shown several possibilities that range from $80 to $200 in price, the more see-through, the higher the price seemed to be.

He opts for the sheerest item, pays the $200 and takes the lingerie home.

After his wife unwrapped the present, he asks her to go upstairs, put it on and model it for him.

Upstairs the wife thinks 'I have an idea. It's so see-through that it might as well be nothing. I won't put it on - i;ll do the modelling naked - return it tomorrow and get a $200 refund and keep the money for myself, then treat myself to a new handbag'.

She then appears naked at the top of the stairs and strikes a pose.

The husband says 'Stone me, it wasn't that creased in the shop'.

:kboom:

Don't tell us your mate felt deflated! The visitor was obviously not well connected.

If any of you don't understand Bryons post, scratch your head, but not under your arms.

Having put himself in steath-mode, could'nt understand why he was waiting sooooooooo long to be served for his coffee.

flightygirl is dead right, there is an old saying that goes something like this-------gradually do what you fear most, to overcome fear!

It used to work well with the "dragonlady" (mother-in-law).

any more sensible, could'nt help but see the funny side of the FI waddling along like he'd had a new pair of wellington boots and forgot to cut the string.

 

From this day forward, we'll just call him Nickerless said the ever smiling Planey.:big_grin:

"I'll get Julia Gillard to send me a crate of the stuff. this will be a walk in the park."So as Pete relinquished the keyboard in the hope that Thommo could save the day..........

"Good morning Sir. I have here an official complaint to hand deliver, about you and your cronies on the forums, making derrogatory remarks about our country's fine leader who pays my wages and overtime.

She wishes it to be known, that she is also interested aviation, and normally books her lessons for first thing in the morning, as she is convinced that it's the early bird that gets the worm"

Worse still, is forgeting where you took-off from, and where you were heading to!

Hi Ben,

Flying R/C models give you an insight to how aircraft fly which is a good start. Many say they are harder to fly than sport aicraft.

Aircraft in the bloodstream is very infectious, and it sounds like you are already hooked, so go for it.

Good luck, and dont be afraid to ask any questions here. Just dont ask for money:laugh:

Let us know how you get on mate.

Kind Regards

Planey

Six blokes go on a hunting trip.

Their tents only have room for two men in each.

No one wanted to sleep in the same tent as Daryl because he snored so badly.

They decided it wasn't fair for just one of them share with Daryl the whole time, so they decided to take turns.

The first bloke to sleep in Daryl's tent comes to breakfast the next morning with his hair a mess and his eyes bloodshot.

His mates ask, 'Crikey, what happened?'

He answers, 'Daryl snored so loudly, I just sat up and watched him all night.'

The next night it was a different bloke's turn.

The following morning, same thing, his hair is all standing up and his eyes are bloodshot.

His mates ask, 'Gees, what happened to you? You look awful!'

He says, 'Bloody Daryl shakes the roof. I just sat and watched him all night, I couldn't sleep.'

The third night was Frank's turn.

Frank was a big, burly, ex-footballer; a man's man.

The next morning he comes to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

'Good morning,' he says cheerfully.

His mates can't believe it.

They ask, 'Blimey, what happened?'

Frank says, 'Well, we got ready for bed. I went and tucked Daryl into bed and kissed him good night.

Then he sat up and watched me all night!

Maybe it's those sunnies:question:

Like taking a brolly on a day out, and it never rains.

Don't worry,you'l get there soon.

Thank God for that.

We thought you felt we all deserved "Victor Delta"

Legal Eagles normally find a way around all that jargon, so we'll all wish her well.

Good onyer Darky.

I wish you good luck.

Kind Regards

Planey
