Eh? You do know it takes two to tango, don't you?

Get yourself another couple of rug rats (or are they actually pole rabbits up North?), you need them to crew and maintain your Carrier and Snow Tractor!

Have you heard of practicing? YOu don't have to swing for the fence everytime!
Besides, if he is anything like his father then I will have my hands full. If they're are more of them then me I'll be outnumbered and I'll never keep their paws of my toys.

I got a co-driver first, then I bought the truck.
So who knows what will happen after No.3 arrives...(I then have a complete Sherman Firefly crew )

Default Ah ...

Well, thank you for linking me back to this thread Hanno ... I'd forgotten when your little descendent is due to arrive ... I see that that could be within the next couple of weeks ... hmmm ... will you be present for the birth? Will said babe be weaned on Vegemite and CMP hardpage-childproofed paged children's (tee hee hee) books?

PLEASE ... do remember to come running in here to post the grand arrival of the newest little dutch Skyscraper, male or female when that great moment arrives ... it's countdown time...

<--- THAT is for Mommy from Ma

Our very best wishes to you and Mrs. McSpool especially, seeing as how you have comparatively done bugger-all of the hard work.

Gosh, three McBobbins, so many you'll be tripping over them, although I'm minded one at least is almost a small McReel by now.

R. & M.

Default cheers and congrads

This is forward thinking how do you get all of your vehicles to a show in one trip? Kids

I've got two kids so that means my limit was three trucks, but then again my daughter is getting married this summer, wedding planned around summer club events, so I'll gain another driver.

But kidding aside best to your wife and rest of the family.

Judging by the amount of replies, this little girl is sure going to have a lot of godparents.

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Hanno

Congrats to you and the Missus Hanno...You may be 6'6" ,but you'll soon be cut down to size by a little two foot sweety when she starts to roll those eyes and smile and tease you to distraction..
There is no defense for it..I know..Happened to me.... twice...and they can still do it and they are over 30....

Exclamation

Thanks all for the congrats and good advice!

At 3,680 grams and 49 cms she now is literally a handful; judging by the comments by the ones in the know she'll soon turn into one, figuratively speaking, as well.

Pic shows proud daddy and daughter, merely 48 hours young.
