Title: Paddle Tug RELIANT & the Crew Size
Post by: derekwarner_decoy on October 29, 2005, 06:27:25 PM
Hi PD’s - & all the snaps look great Tony, but how does your other 1/10 scale crew feel about this? - Derek

Then it's time for a 1:32 scale magnum of champagne and a shake down cruise of the local pond.

Thanks I think, you cheeky devil!!!! :P

There's not that much unionised labour left over here in Kiwiland so no demarkation disputes over size (yet).

Hi Pd's - Tony - about the only thing we have in common is that we both joined PD's on the same day of the month of the same year - you profess to be of gentile British free stock where as I have the inbourne convict scars on my back - at least Sandy's people had the sence to stay at home  :respect

Anyway tomorrow is a big new day for you  :rant - you know they say 3 meals of fish per week can make or break the aging process

So with this news I now have 10 serves of fish per week & a few  :beer to try & balance it all out

Oh BTW - I have spoken off line with all of the other 234 PD members & we all wish you a very happy new days work tomorrow - your mate across the ditch - Derek

Hi PD's...and Derek..... :D  :D  :D  :wink:

First I must say to Tony...I wish you all the luck and good fortune your new job will have to offer...from your description, it sounds like a great little number...also...you can blame Derek for all the banter that has come your way....well he did lay down the challenge, even though he can't collect....serves him right. :clap  :clap  :luck

Derek...I think it was more from luck than good sense that we managed to stay here....the excise men couldn't handle the rough terrain...or the dreaded Scottish midge....sassenach wimps!!!
:twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

regards all

Maaaate, there's one other connection - the ANZAC spirit. We may poke a genteel bit of harmless fun at each other on the very odd occasion but come the day of need and there's no-one we'd rather have fighting alongside us!

'onyer, Ocker, yew bewdy!

As for Sandy Braveheart ... hat's off to you too mate - can't be too rude you see 'cos I'm quarter sporran twirler myself.

Slainte Mhath to the pair of you!

:oops &  :angel - sorry PD's - as Tony reminded me about the ANZAC spirit that we do have in common

Mind you, after having spent 1504 days in service with the Australlian Department of Defence @ HMA Garden Island Naval Dock Yard in Sydney & ending up as the senior forman in above water weapons [gun mounts & missle launchers] on our HMAS ships gives me enough insight to know that I will never equip PS Decoy with any ABSL or [anti bill :boom istic..............weight] - & as Eddie & PJ have said, watch out for the top heavy bits & all of those "things" that are close to deck level - Derek :twisted:
