Are you sure they'll cope?
At least she's a bona fide Blitz enthusiast

Who even mentioned that Emma would be silly enough to be looking at Blitz's when she could be looking at Crown Royal bottles to purchase and patchwork quilts for her mother. Anyway it might be Michael that is going and he will be able to teach you Canadians how to drink and will certainly get his mother a big big bottle of Crown Royal and many many quilts for his mother and prospective mother in law. By the way Emma is old enough to travel on her own, the only problem she will have is that her father will brain wash her into buying something for his collection. If you think you need some gifts from Canada Keefy have you any suggestions who is able to travel?

I think it's best that Michael goes... then Mark won't need to answer his own question about Emma's companion.
Michael is a good son who is sure to remember his mother's requirements.
Max, I think you're going to need to start brainwashing both offspring soon just to be on the safe side.

Now you're talking!
Can we go when there's no snow? Is there such a time? Do Canucks actually ever get to DRIVE their CMPs?

What are you two planning now, sorry keefy there is no way Maxy darling is going to Canuckland with you, it would take a very strong person to brainwash you two into looking at quilts so it's better if you two don't go together. By the way Max has now gone to work at last.

So I'll just have to take Lucky as my travelling partner...

Has she had her innoculations?

Is she a nervous flyer?

Maybe if I promise not to go via New Zealand...

Mark Sierant · #39 05-10-04, 06:42

Thought the rest of you civilised people - while the Aussies here are distracted baiting each other - might want to have a glimpse of Max's spread in Yass.

Keefy, which one of the lot down the hill is your "special" one?

PS: I like talking to cows, but that's just me, I guess. Of course, I like eating them, too...

Max is bringing her in on the right, but she's a bit shy...

Mark Sierant · #43 05-10-04, 08:40

No problems Max shes in freezer bags.

Mark Sierant · #44 08-10-04, 06:51

Whats up people you mention 'Lucky" and freezer bags in the one thread and all goes quite. There where some good pictures happening here, Kieth was up to his usual antics with photo shop putting the real life touch to Max's farm.
What about Emma and her trip surely we must keep the companion thing going????

Max Hedges · #45 11-10-04, 01:02

......l am watching you.

Em

Mark Sierant · #46 11-10-04, 01:12

How was the weekend Max, was that you or Arron that I saw driving the gun tractor through the dam on Sunday?
Well I coudnt help myself I have pulled the new truck apart to give it a fresh coat of olive drab or at least the original Toyota equivilent. Even pulled the tray of for a little underbody tidy up.

Mark, you are a maker of mischief.

Keith Webb · #48 12-10-04, 02:39

Emma just sent me these pics of Yass at the height of the drought:

That's Matt the Canuck who lived and worked at Yass until earlier this year.

Max reckons the lucerne's just about dry enough to cut and bale now.

Mark Sierant · #49 12-10-04, 06:15

Dear Kieth in this case I Kid you not! the bow wave and splash was very visible from the highway as I drove past. On my return trip I noticed that the tractor had been employed to remove the obstruction to the water course.

The drought photos show a graet contrast to the season before I cant believe how much S--t those little dog do. Check out the first photo.

Has anyone heard from Matt?

Max Hedges · #50 13-10-04, 23:12

when we last spoke to Matt he was doing well we don't know whether it's because Tabitha is there with him or not (the Yass girl), we're thinking of ringing him too see if he has time to pop over and do a bit of hay carting for old time sake and see if he's still missing the Blitz's (although he told Kathy he was never ever going on a trip in a Blitz again) maybe one of the Canucks over there can take him for a ride on memory lane.

G'day Mr Webb;
I'm Alan Loshbaugh, President of the Toyota Land Cruiser Association (www.tlca.org). I've been trying to get info together on these old Toyota FQ series trucks together for some time, and I sure would appreciate it if I could talk to you about yours sometime? You can reach me at loshbaugha@missouri.edu.

thanks, alan

I'll let Mark fill you in on the details of type, suffice to say it's amazing the lengths some companies will go to to copy something.
