The Riverland lass has had a re-think about attending Narromine and simply boosting planey's ego, just to get cheap accomodation.

It is probably better that she has decided to share herself around (as she always has in the past) and enjoy everyones company.

Planey booked a room with a double bed, and only needing half of it, made the girl an offer.

She originally honoured the offer, and it was hoped that it would be a weekend of "honour and offer".

Accomodation in town for the Easter weekend is filling up fast, so anyone needing to book, should do so ASAP.

To quote BigPete------- We need Prior Preparation Plus Planning Preventing Piss Poor Performance - (the eight P's), or as my kiwi mate would say "-t, shud hiv thunk aboot tit sex months ago"

There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job it was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses.

One day just before Christmas, a letter landed on his desk, simply addressed in shaky handwriting to "God".

With no other clue on the envelope, he opened the letter and read, "Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow living on the State pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100 in it, which was all the money I had in the world and no pension due until after Christmas.

Next week is Christmas and I had invited two of my friends over for Xmas dinner.

Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope. God; can you please help me?"

The postal worker was really touched, and put a copy of the letter up on the Staff Notice board, at the main sorting office where he worked.

The letter touched the other postmen and they all dug into their pockets and had a whip round.

Between them they raised $96.

Using an official franked Post Office envelope, they sent the cash on to the old lady, and for the rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of the nice thing they had done.

Christmas came and went. A few days later, another letter simply addressed to "God" landed in the Sorting Office. Many of the postmen gathered around while the letter was opened.

It read, "Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me?

Because of your generosity, I was able to provide a lovely dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day, and I told my friends of your wonderful gift - in fact we haven't gotten over it and our Vicar is beside himself with joy.

By the way, there was $4 missing. I think it must have been those thieving bast*rds at the Post Office."

Is'nt that what's called a warp-drive prop?

Not an idiot at all Ian. You know the saying "what goes up, must come down, and people on the ground have to beware of yellow rain near bosuns chairs.

By the way, did you work for a pommy guy who I think lives at Coffs Harbour, and owns a Beechcraft Sundowner? Because if so, I met him at The Oaks one Sunday and he gave my girlfriend a ride back to Hoxton Park.

He was into lightning protection and did the Sydney Opera House.

First Indian astronaut returns safely to earth.

Hey CCCCCCCaptain,

Sorry, but I think I might have have caught PPPPPPetes ssssstuterbug. Maybe its a Victorian thing.

I've been away to MMMMMelbourne for a week ,and waved to everyone as the Virgin flew me over the top. I returned to expect lots of posts saying they'd seen me give a friendly wave but not a bloody thing.

I've just confirmed my double-room booking for Narromine under the name of Mr & Mrs Riverland, so hope your all a lot friendlier if I / we should see you out there:sad:

Planey

So tell us all about it Ian, so we can judge;)

Planey

Sorry Thx1147,

I thought it was "dead funny".

The third man started searching desperately through his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties.

St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, "And just what do those symbolise?"

The man replied, "These are Carols."

If you give me the authority, I might have to moderate this one.

Bye the way Ian, it was'nt St Peter-------------It was St Knickerless:laugh:

Kind regards

Planey

The Captain makes some very good points, as does BigPete, like wearing forum nametags.

With several of us wearing tags bearing the title "Most Moderated 2008", at least it narrows the field a bit to the ratbag few:laugh:

I suppose The Easter Bunny who keeps getting his long ears slammed in the canopy, should'nt be too hard to spot.

Now to the important bit.

Planey has a bit of a problem, and needs some advise from his mates. (if there really are any).

He's been offered a double room for the Narromine weekend, and suffering from a few aching muscles, wanted to get better value for his buck, by sharing with the Riverland Girl who could sooth his muscles at the end of the day.

However, she is knowwhere to be found:sad:, and he's not interesed in any offers from aviators who'd would wear a Julie Andrews wig just to get accomodation at the show:yuk::yuk::yuk:

I suspect that this thread has slowed down a bit as others may be trying to find her as well.

However, I have the nice smelling oils,;) soft music:heart: and even a box of romantic candles from the Asian $2 shop down the road, so other blokes don't stand much chance.

I won't be arriving in my own flying machine with three wheels:crying:, but possibly more like a one hundred wheeler, courtesy of State Rail on a pensioner ticket.

Anyway, I have reliable information that she's not a snob:question:

Get well soon PPPPPPPete, hope you manage to get over that sssssstuttering problem.

Kind regards

Planey

An Irishman was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a diet.

'I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you should have lost at least 5 pounds.'

When the Irishman returned, he shocked the doctor by having lost nearly 60lbs!

'Why, that's amazing!' the doctor said, 'Did you follow my instructions?'

The Irishman nodded...'I'll tell you though, by jaesuz, I t'aut I were going to drop dead on dat 3rd day.'

'From the hunger, you mean?' asked the doctor.

'No, from the bloody skippin' .'

News Flash.

The planning of events for Narromine next Easter, is well under way.

Rumor has it;), that one of the star attractions to pull the crowds in, could be an appearance of The Easter Bunny:cool: arriving by the long awaited Millenium Master.

However, this attraction may well be outdone.

It is understood that the well known Riverland girl has agreed to to defy death, once again, by taking to the air suspended only by her knicker elastic from a Victorian based Jabiru, as she did by accident, after being hooked up during a fly-fishing trip some months ago.

This a real crowd puller, and an event not to be missed.

Due to safety concerns on approach, the barbed wire fence will this time, be temporarilly removed, to overcome the evertightening circuits flown when she got caught prior to touchdown, last time this feat occured.

McDonalds have set up a hotline for aerial-delivery of burgers, and all orders are expected to be delivered with free flies.

Hopefully our mate Slarti will be there with his flying BBQ cooking up his snagaroos, so nobody needs to go hungry.:thumb_up::thumb_up::thumb_up:

Please post your suggestions, for other ideas to help make this event a resounding success----------------------

Like all of us that don't get any younger, I quite understand.

Take good care of yourself and your Corby Mate.

Kind Regards

Planey

:star::yuk:"Come in Crappy Number 5, your time is up. Stop looking at Russian Girls that say they want to meet you.

"Come in Big Peter, which is what they're really after.

"Come in Geoff. By the way Bunnings have ceiling paint on special and you could always use a roller for a quick job, just to shut the boy's up.

Dont put up with their crap, i'm envious of what you've got anyway, for what it's worth.

Planey has had a few issues with his computer and thinks it could also do with a coat of newness (even with a roller).

hihosland has had time to think about posting longer posts about the "Ratbag Pack" who have kept this thing going.

Ben who always thinks a bit along the blue line, is either polishing his new toy beyond the gel-coat, mowing his strip in readiness for the RAA lawn inspectors, or, calculating the revenue from Friarpuks plonk sales at the next fly-in.

Paley's valued comments are also about to spark ino life, and hopefully many others too------------------------------------------------meanwhile.

PS. please note that I saved money by not using these ;):confused::big_grin::ah_oh::black_eye::):nerd:i_dunno:keen::thumb_up:thumb_down:censored:

Now be honest Starti,

Your heaters a bloody barbeque. all the regulars know that!

You need a handshake for that one-------thats funny:laugh:

Couple of things if I may Planedriver:- Firstly, welcome to what has been proven to be the most popular and friendly recreational flying site in Australia...there isn't any "dog eat dog" here!

- You say that you "have all the right gear", please don't lift the right leg...or even the left leg for that matter

 

- and finally, if you are into tail draggers, ...can you please check for worms!

Catch yer later------------Gone fishing

Just landed

Hi Guys,

I've just landed on this site, and have had a passion for flying for quite some time.

I have all the right gear as my photo shows, and you'll find i'm real regular with all types of posts.

I'm really into tail-draggers as you'd probably guess, but my current design lacks lift, even though the Rover powerplant runs on all four and does'nt miss a beat.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated,until I get the problems licked.

Ah Ian,

Surely your not going to spoil a good story.

If I told you the pilot learned how to do it in Silver City Airways Bristol 170 out of Manston, would you believe it then?;) Because rumor has it that some good pilots come from that area.

Regards

Alan

Born near RAF Kenley where Hurricanes were based and a short bike ride to Biggin Hill soon had me hooked.

On a very limited budget, over time, I took a TIF with 10 out of 13 flying schools that operated from there, just to get in the air.

My first flight was in a Miles Gemini at Shorham which got airborne due to the curvature of the earth, followed by DH Dragon Rapide, Aircoupe, Auster Mk5 before the modern stuff like a Reims Cessna.

Even joined the Metroploitan Police as a Special Constable and helped out at Fetes and football matches, etc; for 6hrs a month, as a means of joining the Sports and Social Club, so I could get flying lessons for only 4 pounds 15 shillings an hour (crafty bugger).

Then got involved with a girl and gave it all away (just call me stupid)
