Wombat will not be impressed " Coromal windup camper and purple Triton Dual cab" I thought he referred to it as Shaaartruuse LOL

I thought he called it bordeaux...but it's purple....[and I apologise to him if I got the description of the Coromal wrong..but it's the best way I could think...I'm sure he'll forgive me - I hope !...hahah]

Perfect description of the camper Mrs Al - but the colour description for the Wombatmobile should be "Buckland Valley Dusty Brown". In
places I think it might actually be an inch thick.
Eight weeks to go - and so much still to do!!!!!!

Hmmmm - A new handle Al?
I heard a rumour that you were thinking of changing your pseudonym to "Scott Nomates" due to the lack of member messages you have been receiving!

Why is it that women always love the black ones. They're really no bigger than any of the other colours, are they?

Hi Brad
first let me say, I love your pumpkin...hhahahhaa....yes we'll have fun, can't wait...but as Wombie said, still stacks to do...
ahh....Jelly Bean...
well....to not reveal too much, it involves a jar, a lucky guess and an almost 3 year old ! perhaps Mr JB might like to expand.

Please tell me they're really no bigger than the other colours Ruth! I honestly can't see any difference, although I am reliably told that there IS a difference.

Graham, you don't need to rub it in...enough of that was done [nicely I must add] by a
young Brisbane Lions supporter over the
Easter break..."how did you lose by 60 points"..ahhahaahahha
