That's a picture of a Canadian taxpayer in the middle, and two politicians feeding at the end.

But...they don't look like pigs... :confused:

Don't know why, it's probably the unique combination of Aussie farm pics and Canuck humour!

When you come out to Aussie land we can knock one off.

What do you like steak or mince? (old people that can not chew their food eat mince)

They will be ready to do this in about 10 months

We can not let Emma catch us doing this or we will be in BIG trouble

JON
The cow (taxpayer) was disobedient when she had her calves (goverment) she would no feed one of them. So we had to train her to feed bother her calves (goverment) this took about about two week to do

Irse is the blue and the white flowers that you can see in the picture with Loki

cheers

Cliff: You're treading on very dangerous ground with that remark.

Keep watching over your shoulder, lest a Chev run you down!

I've seen more Ford CMPs getting towed by Chevs at MV meets than the other way around.

Chevs don't get vapour lock.

Jon I may have meant that the Chevs were not worth putting under cover as they are so tough ;) and the Fords had to be under cover because of the Fix Or Repair Daily or Found On Rubbish Dump syndrom :D

Cheers

shed
 
the dennis was the first one in the shed and it is now full. Irse are really spelt iris I'm told. I'd really like to have my cab 12 in the shed one day and finish it off. The only other one that might stand a chance is the chev cab 11 30cwt.

Seeing the Dennis has a nice new cab and tray it can stand being in the weather better than the precious CMPs, so drag it out and put the really valuable trucks in.:D

I should that so the paint could fade and the wood crack to make the old girl look her age. Imagine driving to Corowa in the dennis doing 15 mph. The tunnel will make a good home to the dennis for the time being.

PS. Cliff finally have those dodge spring measurements for you

wool
 
Prices for wool have been very disapointing latley, not even covering our costs. Until last week when we sold our best bale which made 1666 cents per kilo. On todays market thats a good price, the rest of our fleece wool is only making 660 to 800 cents a kilo. The classer (sorting the wool) of this wool was Emma and she did a very good job. I am very proud of her.

Does lanolin on her hands make her lose grip on the Frypan?:fry: I'd hate to be nearby and it flies out of her hands when she's aiming for Keefy:eek:

Cod Muster
 
I see that you have got the wet bikes out for the seasons Cod muster Max. How did you go? I hope the price was better than wool per kilo.

Haymaking has just started. We are just about to cut another padock this morning

Keefy you are my favourit uncle, I would never do anything to harm you:D Next time you are up I will have to bake you a cake. I don't like that Tony fella, cause he did not take enough blitz stuff home with him the other day. He didn't even fill his trailer.

Oh and I am used to lanolin on my hand so I will never miss my target :fry:
