Is he heading to Bankstown?

 

 

At St. Peter's Catholic Church in New York , they have weekly husbands'

 

marriage seminars.

 

 

 

At the session last week, the priest asked Giuseppe, who said he was

 

approaching his 50th wedding anniversary, to take a few minutes and

 

share some insight into how he had managed to stay married to the same

 

woman all these years.

 

 

 

Giuseppe replied to the assembled husbands, 'Wella, I'va tried to

 

treat her nicea, spenda da money on her, but besta of all is, I tooka

 

her to Italy for the 25th anniversary!'

 

 

 

The priest responded, 'Giuseppe, you are an amazing inspiration to all

 

the husbands here! Please tell us what you are planning for your wife

 

for your 50th anniversary?'

 

 

 

Giuseppe proudly replied, " Ima gonna go back againa to pick her up."

 

 

This guy gets a bucket-load of adrenalin during this flight experience.

 

Hang on to your seat and enjoy the ride in these clips.

I do work for for the local TV stations here in Brisbane I will see if I can rustle up some media..the guys I deal with are mainly the techos but will see how we goMark

Thanks, this is worthy of some media exposure as not only is it a great feat anyway. but by a courageous man with disabilities, it's even more so.

 

Congratulations Dave! We are all proud of what you have achieved, and you are an inspiration to just so many of us.

 

I for one would love to have the opportunity to meet you and buy you a beer, even if it's not a warm one.

 

Kind Regards

Canary Yellow Foxbat LS with tundra's sitting on the strip with 21 hrs on the clock and all I can say is YeeeeeHa!This thing is a blast!!

 

Anyone who thinks that 172's are the only bush aircraft to fly needs to have a whirl in a WolfRat; doesn't matter much what you do, this thing is Solid.

 

Looking forward to getting to know it better.

 

Also thumbs up to Jim Nesbit who did the GA to RA-Aus conversion in Broken Hill; Very talented instructor, even if he does have a magnetic attraction to cross-wind landings!

 

Hours hours here I come.

Welcome to the forums Planechaser, and congratulations on your new aquisition. You'll have a lot of fun with that one, just don't tell us if decide to call it "Tweetie Pie" because of it's colour. Some of the blokes on here might give you a hard time.

 

Kind Regards

Sadly, I know from my experience involved with the security industry, these bast---ds get to know that if the stuff is insured, and three or or four weeks later it's all been replaced by the insurance company, ( if you were that lucky) and they they want a second bite at the cherry.

 

So be warned as iv'e seen it on so many occasions

 

.

 

 

Wadya Freaks going on about?

 

I don't give a stuff about how many bosses I have.

 

I'm proud to work for the local Council and i'm still in the pub by 3.30pm sharp.

Good stuff!

 

My kind of music.

eBay Scam Alert

 

 

Be careful what you purchase on eBay.

 

 

 

A friend spent $80 on a male member enlarger.

 

 

 

The rip-off merchant sent a magnifying glass.

 

 

 

Instructions said don't use in the sunlight.

 

 

 

From his hospital bed, he said he wished he had read that bit earlier.

 

 

 

As Air Force One arrives at Heathrow Airport, President Obama proudly strides to a warm and dignified reception from the Queen.

 

They are driven in a 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London, where they change to a magnificent 17th century state carriage hitched to six white horses. They continue on towards Buckingham Palace, waving to the thousands of cheering Britons; all is going well.

 

Suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous earth shattering passing of wind ever heard in the British Empire. The smell is atrocious and both passengers in the carriage must use handkerchiefs over their noses. It literally shook the coach, but the two dignitaries of State do their best to ignore the incident.

 

The Queen turns to President Obama, " Mr. President, please accept my regrets... I am sure you understand there are some things that even a Queen cannot control."

 

Obama, always trying to be "Presidential," replied: "Your Majesty, do not give the matter another thought... Until you mentioned it, I thought it was one of the horses."

 

 

*Two Woodpeckers*

 

So, this Mexican woodpecker and a Canadian woodpecker were in Mexico arguing about which country had the toughest trees. The Mexican woodpecker claimed Mexico had a tree that no woodpecker could peck.

 

The Canadian woodpecker accepted his challenge and promptly pecked a hole in the tree with no problem. The Mexican woodpecker was amazed.

 

The Canadian woodpecker accepted his challenge and promptly pecked a hole in the tree with no problem. The Mexican woodpecker was amazed.

 

The Canadian woodpecker then challenged the Mexican woodpecker to peck a tree in Canada that was absolutely 'impeccable' (a term frequently used by woodpeckers ).

 

The Mexican woodpecker expressed confidence that he could do it and accepted the challenge.

 

 

 

The two of them flew to Canada where the Mexican woodpecker successfully pecked

 

the so-called 'impeccable' tree almost without breaking a sweat....

 

Both woodpeckers were now terribly confused. How is it that the Canadian woodpecker

 

was able to peck the Mexican tree, and the Mexican woodpecker was able to peck

 

the Canadian tree, yet neither was able to peck the tree in their own country?

 

After much woodpecker pondering, they both came to the same conclusion:

 

Apparently, Tiger Woods and Shane Warne were right, when they said,

 

"your pecker gets harder when you're away from home".

 

 

 

 

 

But with a bit of your "bravo siera"expertise, telling her it looks better than it has for years, and has obviously pushed the property value up, you'll be right for sure:thumb_up:.

 

providing of course you haven't been having those nanna naps for years, while she's done it.

 

 

 

Looks a lovely spot to spend a few days, even if you did'nt see any whales.

 

Most of those light-houses are situated in places where you can forget the rest of the world, mobile phones and the like, and simply enjoy the peace and tranquility.

 

 

Saw the "great white whale" off Gabo Island when we were there in October last year. Incidentally, the flights from Mallacoota onto and off (C172 RG II Cutlass) were particularly spectacular.[ATTACH=full]14279[/ATTACH]

What is the picture of?

Whether it be of the grass strip, or the amourous guy sun-baking on the rocks, I liked it Rod:big_grin:

You obviously had a whale of a time. Thanks for posting the pics Rob, Brilliant stuff!

Frank,Well, I hope to be flying for a lot more years to come. But fate will decide that. I was very lucky - 13 skull fractures and now 7 plates holding the noggin together Peter

Hi Peter and welcome to the forums. Good to hear that you are back in the air.

 

Don't worry about the plates in the head mate, that might be an advantage one day-------my old dad had a motorcycle accident many years ago and he had plates in his head, leg and arm. He reconned that if he died without a penny in the bank to leave us, us kids should still get something for him for scrap.

 

 

have to agree with you there planey a whole new meaning to well hung (sorry)

You mean like a Storch to a KR2? Thinking aviation terms obviously!

 

 

Oh bother! or words to that effect,

 

must have forgotton to lower the gear.

 

Never skimp on the pre-landing checks.

 

 

:england:It's 2012 and it's the Olympics in London .

 

A Scotsman, an Englishman and an Irishman want to get in, but they

 

haven't got tickets.

 

The Scotsman picks up a manhole cover, tucks it under his arm and

 

walks to the gate.

 

"McTavish, Scotland " he says, "Discus" and in he walks.

 

The Englishman picks up a length of scaffolding and slings it over his

 

shoulder.

 

"Waddington-Smythe, England " he says, "Pole vault" and in he walks.

 

The Irishman looks around and picks up a roll of barbed wire and

 

tucks it under his arm.

 

"O'Malley, Ireland :ireland:," he says, "Fencing"

 

 

This yarn sounds to me like a stretch of one's imagination, but i'll still give it give or take a yard or two.

 

 

A farmer stopped by the local mechanic shop to have his truckfixed. They couldn't do it while he waited, so he decided he

 

would just walk home.

 

On the way home he stopped at the hardware store and bought a

 

bucket and a gallon of paint. He then stopped by the feed store

 

and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However,

 

struggling outside the store he now had a problem -- how to

 

carry all of his purchases home.

 

While he was scratching his head, he was approached by a little

 

old lady who told him she was lost. She asked: "Can you tell me

 

how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?"

 

The farmer said: "Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very

 

close to that house. I would walk you there but I can't carry

 

this lot."

 

The old lady suggested: "Why don't you put the can of paint in

 

the bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under

 

each arm, and carry the goose in your other hand?"

 

"Why, thank you very much," he said and proceeded to walk the

 

old girl home. On the way he said: "Let's take my shortcut and

 

go down this alley. We'll be there in no time."

 

The little old lady looked him over cautiously, then said: "I

 

am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know

 

that when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the

 

wall and have your way with me?"

 

The farmer said: "Holy smokes, lady! I'm carrying a bucket, a

 

gallon of paint, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world

 

could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?"

 

The old lady replied: "Set the goose down, cover him with the

 

bucket, put the paint on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the

 

chickens.

 

Well done Frank!

 

 

Just write BOB on a piece of paper and hand it to a cabin attendant, they'll divert the flight to your favourite destination and give you a priority departure off the plane.

What an A380 into The Oaks? I'll have to ask Errol to remove the wire fence with the tractor!

 

and the next half a dozen houses over the hill towards Camden.

 

Poor DaveC won't recognise the place and will them blame me

 

 

If you can't really afford a doctor, simply go to an airport and you'll get a free x-ray, breast- examination, and if you utter the word Al Queda, a free colonoscopy as well.
