lj - I've had the pleasure of meeting a few forum members face to face either through a transaction of for purely social reasons. It's been great fun every time. Maybe we should consider video-conferencing and get a bunch of guys online at the same time! The technology is there.

I am not so sure John. Some of these crazy cooks are likely to show us some things we may not particularly care to see at the moment!!!!! Eye BallEye BallEye Ball

Thanks for the hospitality longjohn!

A great afternoon, beer,Slingys and good company.

We have a lot in common, that's for sure, but I'd say only slightly younger

brother!LoLoLoLo

Thanks to sites like VDF the world is getting to a smaller place.

It's always nice to meet nice people.

Thanks for a great arvo, and as I said next time you're in Adelaide, look

us up man. We can go for round two.

Cheers Stevo.
