Good Day Mates

I'm very pleased to announce that I'm coming for the first time to Corowa! I will travel half way around the world only to see Blitzes, Carriers, DUKWs etc etc.

I'm going to enjoy the hospitality of Max and Kathy! It's good to be back again after 2005 and to meet and see all of you MLUers, and of course Karmen and Jif for the first time.

It's going to be a very pleasent and exciting Corowa 2007! Just have to sleep 11 times and I'll catch the plane, jiiippppiiiii !

Hope to cu there.
Chris from Switzerland

Chris, did Max tell you he's got 450 bales of hay to load onto a truck for you to do the day after you arrive in Yass?
Look forward to saying G'day
Robert....

Default Hay

Then there's all the crutching and drenching to be done too.

That sounds faintly disgusting, Keefy.

Chris, it will be good to meet you! Good lord, OUR combined flight times (including layovers) will be close to 24hrs, how long will it take YOU to get to Yass?

K, how many sleeps? Don't have a calendar in front of me and am only partially conscious. Gotta head off to work shortly.

Hi Robert

As far as I remember we had strictly separated jobs. Me: chief Chev driver. Tim and you: human hay bales loaders ;-)

See you soon....
Chris

PS And I've got support with Jif and Karman. We just need more trucks to drive and some support hay loaders ;-))) Round up the Yass folks!

Default flight time

@Jif

I will leave Switzerland Thursday evening, 21.45 pm, and arriving in Sydney, 06.55 am. Time difference is about +9 hours. So it's a bloody hell of a journey. But at least I'll fly with Emirates: Watch the latest movies, play games, enjoy the food...

cu soon and enjoy the Aussie hospitality!
Chris

Hi all,

I count 15 til liftoff so Chris, you'll beat us there by a few days and I expect there will be less work for me and His Highness Master Sunray by the time we get to Yass, Land of Sheep-ish-ness and shear pleasure. Shearly we'll be right, mate?



It will be great to meet you in person in Oz!!!

Ma Yappy
