What the heck kind shoes do you wear with that thing?

Piper Ghillies those boots are called.

 Good lord he looks like a catholic school girl in trouble! ....... Hey Dee!!!!!!!!  back in 5 minutes fellows!

Blond?

Or Brunette?

 Now if I had to make a comparison I would say Mr Connery has the style but still needs to shave his legs.

What the heck kind shoes do you wear with that thing?

Well they revamped the forcast a bit. Right now it's 77 but they say tomorrow's high will be 10 degrees lower than last nights low of 69. Supposed to drop down to 45 tonight. That is still probably swimsuit weather for up north... wow 12 degrees? Brrrrrrr. Is that your own brew Roy?

Sad to say but not that one.  It's from O'Del's Brewery in CO.  Some very good stuff.  I drank most of my ales.  All that's left are barley wines and strong ales

CAG Thank you very much for the card! Was our first card of the season as well! Will be returning the favor soon.

Hmmmm glad to see ya back CAG! How did you ever short through all those weekend GB post. It is crazy! 

Freezing eh. Right now it is 80 degrees F outside but news says a cold front is on the way. Expect temp drops of up to a 50 degree change? WoW that will be a diff! May have to put on pants and long sleeves! 50 degree change in 24 hours wow!

Thanks mate!

I'll be sure to save you a cold one.

Darren, I just checked out your FAA Corsair on the online photo galleries.  Very well done sir.  I will be there to cheer you on this weekend.

Hello Chaps!

sorry for my absence-HM is keeping me very busy at the moment! Glad to hear my seasons greetings are landing safely in the US!

I have had a little time tonight in the workshop-not too long though, its freezing over here and my workshop heater is U/S at the moment. The Crusader is now ready for decals-I still have that tricky canopy paint job to start as well- Still, I am off duty come the weekend and I will be taking part in Dave's 48 hr GB! I will be building a 1/72 Airfix F-4J........the same one that I had when I was a boy. It will be fun!

In the meantime, get those decks ready and re-supply my rum locker, I will be thirsty by Friday!!!!

See you then!

Freakin' whatever McNeal if you use "skirt" once more I'm gonna come find ya! We Scots what ain't so "wee" by the way pride ourselves in the range of motion whackin away at the rest o' ye with a Claymore is afforded. Go rent Braveheart and send me the bill!

My Great grandda was third at West Point in 1903, Morrison was his name, but lost out on the prime assignment to the Phillipines to a piker named Macsomething or other, nother Scot we reckon.

Roy, sorry to see you were reduced to water rations.

Now that the decks be cleared, it's time to reinforce a little order round here. Hurray to the CAG fot his kind thoughts, time to roll the XO out of his bunk, screw the Lt's and piratical talk might be heard afore ye' see yer last lights, mind the fartin"!

Happy Holidays my fine friends, this Friday begins the tyranny called "put the lights on the tree'.

Your faithful Bos'n, Horatio Magellan Bondoman

Hmmm... befinning to see why Roy never gets any modeling done if he sits down at the bench with one of those big frothy mugs of cleaning solution everytime.   Now put away that rocket and finish your P-40 Roy.  

Oh yeah...  Happy 2000 Roy

Frank, here's the Mauve V2 in 1/48.  I just noticed that on the end of the box it reads Limited Run.  There are no pins and Dr. Von Braun and the launch stand are white metal

The holidays aren't taking their toll on you already I hope!  I still saved the pic of last years card you posted.  4 words he only wrote 4 words?  Inspiring!  Buck up man! I guess Wiscon is not reknowned for kilt weather. Roger give him back his pleated skirt already! Happy 2000th post Roy! On the FAA side!

This was the first GB I joined when I first signed on.  Funny, I have yet to finish my FAA Corsair  I spend more time here than any other GB.  I hope when I hit the next mark it's in this GB. Now I'm off to get a cold brew 

If things go well I hope to have the P-40 done before the week.  You think Nam will beat me to the finish

Things are cool.  My wife is out of town till Friday and snow is in the forcast for the next few days.  Anyone who has spent any time in Wyoming knows that with the snow is the ever present wind.  I' Mr. Mom till Friday also.

John, would you like a copy of the group mailing list?  Just let me know

You helped make a bad day at worka little bit better I received mine today also.  Thank you CAG wonderful card.  I only wish there was a return addess to the SW so I could return the favor.

Yeah yeah. Got mine yesterday. Marked Royal post.... Opened it right up. No money? No scantily dressed chicks on the card.  Looked like a Doctors hand writing inside the card so either someone was wishing me a Merry Christmas or was telling Dee to push me off a bridge.

 I thought the whole thing was a setup but now it makes sense,  Just Kidding! A very beautiful card and a heartfelt gesture Darren! This is the first Christmas in a long while where I have not been Charlie Brown with the empty mailbox! Dee made me pin it up as our first official decoration of the holidays! Thank you!
