Hi all, just a reminder that a group of Forumites are meeting up this Sunday at the 4x4 show in Melb.

We're meeting at door 4 at 2pm...and then going to have a drink somewhere.

It has been suggested that I wear a tophat with "Mrs Al' on it, or an Explor Oz sticker on my head, but I've opted against both of these [yeah chicken I know]

So, instead...for those of you who don't know me.....I'll be in blue jeans, denim shirt with 'Grierson Engineering" written in red script on the left breast pocket...if you see me walking around the show before hand, grab me and say "hi"...

looking forward to catching up and meeting some of you...

cheers

Lyn [Mrs. Al]

If there are any changes I"ll post later...

Laugh alot..life's too short not to....

Yeh Ma
We will be there on Sunday. I'll look out for the blue rinse and that big toothy smile and straw hat. Didn't know that old girls like you could still get into jeans. Your left breast pocket will be resting on your lap I bet. LOL.

Richard, you obviously did not partake in fisticuffs(also known as boxing) at school. A haymaker is a stiff arm wild swing at your opponent. If you connect with a haymaker then it is normally daylights for your opponent(or you could break your hand). Better duck if Des Lexik is in the vicinity........:-)

We are very upset but Mr Al has to stay home and mind the kids. But we are talking about getting wet up the creek.

Yes Alan, I did a few stints in the NT Government and Commonwealth Gov in Darwin. Last time around was with the NT Development Corporation(now defunct) and finished up there in 1980. It was a job to tide me over. Got to know all the lurks and perks of the trade. It was fun while it lasted but in the end I couldn't hack the nonsense any more and got out and went on the wallaby again.
Cheers,
Willie

i know what it means lol
This latin term, often associated with mourning bands and Police Memorial Day, means literally; "No one injures (attacks) me with impunity". The motto of the Order of the Thistle. It was first used on the coins of James VI. of Scotland (James I. of England). How it became associated with the badge mourning band is unclear, however, those of Scottish and Irish descent, who held positions in the ranks of police departments over the years, may well have been the influence.
