Re: Happy Birthday

OMG--how did I miss Jac Mac's birthday?

I guess I'll have to slap the social event coordinator around a bit for this eggrevious omission--hey, wait, that's me!! Maybe this slapping around bit isn't such a good idea.

Well, then, I'll just hoist a few in your honor, Jac--you rule the roost in my books!!

Too bad you're half way around the world........

Pete, I have absolutely no doubt that was what he was referring to....

Doug, Look on 'half way round the world' as a bonus. We've got him on our bloody doorstep!

Cheers Jac Mac. I'm having one for you.

Re: Happy Birthday

Many happies, Jac Mac. Appreciate your input to the forum.
I think you may now be too old for a set of those new wiper blades. You might switch on, short circuit, and go down in a slobbering heap. Of course, who knows, it might go well.

Re: Happy Birthday

What's said above Jac.--don't bother with those "wipers" --they've got poor seals , the lube would probably just smear the screen-- tttt .
I'll have another Guinness for ya --hope that is appropriate

Happy Birthday Jac - have a True Blue day mate.

Me and the girls are having a drink down here for you....

PS I'm just just posting a pic of the girls. One look at my avatar will convince you that this course of action is entirely correct.

Re: Happy Birthday

Jac, sorry I missed your birthday. I hope you had a good time, even if the wipers never showed up. If you ever come to NY, let me know and I'll hunt around for some wipers with you. I will have a drink in your honor tonite. Thanks for all your contributions. As an aside, I spoke to Fran earlier. He said he shipped you a present. I think it was his old clipping shears he had as a boy. He said they needed to be fixed. Please fix them ASAP has he is complaining that the scissors are hard on his hands.

Fran, I think that's only the Brazilian ewes, the KIWI ones are still pretty woolly.

Knowing how fastidious Fran is about any task that he takes on I would not be surprised if he used a set of nail clippers in order to have sufficient time to examine what he was getting himself into. Im about due to clip the dags off a few woollies that are running around here, will give Frans shears a test run before sending them back, with a bit of luck might be able to catch that 'slow boat' that he sent Flat Chats Lola out on as it passes thru Foveaux Strait.
