In fact @[Christian Graus] he deserves a knighthood, given that Abbott has decided we can have them again in Oz.
Thanks for the Tim Tams and assorted chockies. You are a bloody legend mate!
cheers

Wait wait wait... Sending a few chocolate bars grants you the Legend level, with Knighthood on the top of it ?
And I thought I'd have to spend nights writing articles...

I miss his daily rants and Why xxxx sucks today posts.
Sir CG, yeah it has kind of a ring to it!
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?

Wouldn't he need to fly to London to collect it? Are you trying to kill him?
P.S. And I was expecting some Christian Graus facts.

No, we do them locally again, apparently. I flew to London last year, hoping to do it again sometime.

I actually looked for those at a World Market type store a time or two. Never do they have them in the US. I have however, tried ![Good Stuff | [The good stuff]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/vegemite.gif) and I actually like it given in moderation.

*blush* I kept meaning to email to tell you they were coming, but I never quite got around to it  The new flavours are awesome, aren't they ? The Red Velvet Tim Tams literally came out on the last day before I left for Dallas.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Thunderbird_(tenth_generation)[^]
1992 Ford Thunderbird. Drove it until it quit (beyond my financial ability to repair it, that is). Passenger side (outer) door handle was broken, driver side (inner) door handle was broken, neither window rolled down on its own and each was held up by a rubber doorstop, went through oil like crazy, went through antifreeze like crazy, blew a few radiator hoses. But hey, it got me around when I needed it.

Mk II Ford Cortina [^] - my dad bought it for parts, and found it was better than the one he was driving. After him using it for a couple of years he stuck it in a lockup garage, and two years later we revived it after I passed my driving test.

I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I believe it was a 1946 Buick[^], I was 16, I had just left home and didn't have a license but I bought for $300 dollars.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?

When I got out of the service in 70 and returned home my brother had bought an old car that didn't have a hood and he carried a case of oil in the back seat.
When I asked him about the oil he said at every stoplight the passenger would have to get out and wipe oil off the windshield and at every other light the driver would have to get out and put a quart of oil in and the passenger would wipe the window. He didn't have it very long. Thank god!

Mom and dad always bought big cars for my sister. She had a '53 Buick you could hold a party in the back seat without disturbing the driver. You could also remove the key once you got it started.
