... and all the other boys & girls.....

... as to why, when one leaves to do a BIG trip around OZ, it is referred to as the " Wallaby ".

Hey Wolfie

With reference to a previous post of yours, Did you notice the Swagmen of old used to sleep between a couple of sheets of oilskin.

Mr Wolfie

Wouldn't have a clue as to why you would be called a wallaby........ but..Did you get your small engel, there are a few in the Melbourne trading post this week around the $400. Think you were looking for one the other day

No, I ended up with a little Waeco instead.

I dearly liked the Engel, because of the build quality, but couldn't justify the expense.

Thank you for thinking of me anyway....
