I finally got to meet "Swiss Chris" at the OMVA show in Oshawa today. Here is a photo of Chris with some of the MLU characters. There were a lot more MLU members in attendance but no one thought to organize a group photo with Chris ahead of time.
![]() Cheers, Barry Left to right Brian Gough, Swiss Chris, Chris Vickery, Wilf Alexander, Gord Yeo and me.

Jordan, that Photo Shop thingy on my computer sure works well!
![]() Barry Seriously though, I wish we had thought of a group photo. That photo was taken in front of Brian Asbury's flea market stall and we didn't even get him in the photo.

Jeez Barry..I never thought a good wrench like you would blame the equipment.. I could understand if Lobsterman made the posting..but I see that Swiss Chris fits right in the Rogues Gallery and doesn't stand out like a Jeepy guy in drag.. Brian Asbury and Jordan Baker would have made great book ends for the shot.. ![]()

Hi There
It was great putting a face behind the MLU names. Even got some Blitz goodies from Brian Asbury and some fantastic MLU-Shirts from Chris Vickery. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't promising, it was quite raining a bit. However, I wasn't the only Swiss onsite. There was Mowag Piranha 6x6 (Engineer Version), think you call it a Husky. I had the pleasure of driving Brian Gough's Willys Jeep What a nice little car.I'll be picking up my renting car in a few hours and driving East, visiting Barry and then go on to Montreal/Quebec. Greetings Chris Pic 1: Brian Asbury, Swiss Chris, Jordan Baker and Brian Gough Pic 2: Brian Gough, Swiss Chris, Chris Vickery, Wilf Alexander, Gord Yeo and Barry Churcher Pic 3: Swiss Chris having a bit on the other side and driving the only MV in Brian's yard that runs.
