Default But There Is More

Hi all - whilst picking up the Blitz I bought Ada a present. When I told her I said that she now had to learn to drive it. You know what her reply was, "if it has wheels I can drive it." Well that blew me away. What next, a blue singlet and tats.

Hi Bob

You must tell me the secret of purchasing. Nice looking tractor, I believe they are very collectable in their own right and a great asset around the property. I look forward to seeing it.

Cheers

Tony

Hi Tony - no secret, just do it.

Robert - who is a little comedian then. But you are right, even I have one now.

Default Underwhelmed!!

Hi all you wet blankets - as stated in the header, I am underwhelmed by the lack of response about saving another Blitz. Never mind I am happy.

Hi Bob,

Maybe they are all jealous!

Anyway, congratulations on saving another Blitz, a Ford no less! That beautiful flathead is music for the ears. Good luck with the upcoming resto.

Cheers,

Hi Bob

In response to the non comment I wonder if it is because those over the border raiders into South Australia are a bit miffed because you beat them to to it. Anyway mate I look forward to seeing it next time I visit.

Cheers

Tony
