    So we were all happy.

    Oh, I've still got the panbrake

    that exactly how the barter shop/swap shop (l like both those names buy the way) section will work we just need to get it going! so spread the word and we will all enjoy the the benefit

    mate my father was in the RAAF and he was the one that suggested l put it forward as an idea, apparently when he was in the force he explains, that it was a way of life.
    A few extra rations here, a new tent (that l can still remember ) there, and so on.

    lf we can get the section running with a heaps of support among'st members within the forum to justify incisor's efforts then l think it will really take off

    cheers



    PS ls there anyone in Ron's area that can lop down a tree for a nice compressor install
