I didn't know John was "on the loose" and in your
area Ray.
Better lock up my hidden timbers in case he and Liz
strut into Wallan.
Great to see he has made the time to visit and look
forward to the day we can meet up too.

No need to genuflect, bow, or go for fancy titles.
Just pull his chain and watch him flush!

Ray, You and your lovely wife, gave us more than you will ever know. Thanks a million for your wonderful hospitality. It was lovely to meet you after all this time. A great day and meeting you made the whole trip well worthwhile.
Got everything back okay including the "turning tool" (forgot what you called it) Got back early this morning, Sunday.
If any of you other guys get the opportunity to visit Ray and Sue, you are in for a most pleasant experience. It was absolutely fantastic to meet up and spend some time together. Thanks again mate and don't forget to visit us up here when you get up this way.
PS. Thanks for the pics Ray. good stuff..
Got to tell you guys, Ray actually looks much younger in the flesh.Last edited by munruben; 8th November 2009 at 02:59 PM. Reason: To add PS

Almost 3 years ago I had this super surprise from a be I have never met but formed a great friendship with.
I had not long come in from the garage when the door bell rang. Some bloke looking like a security guard standing at the door with his back to me he turned andIts Munruben/John and Liz again
Well we had a few hours of chit chat and they have headed off again.
Thanks John and Liz for a wonderful surprise again. Next time its our turn.
Photos to come when john gets home as my batteries were flat.
