Guys,

Had the absolute pleasure of meeting Fjold (Frank) last weekend for a coffee and a catchup.

If you ever have the opportunity to meet him, do. He is one of the nicest and genuine guys I've met.

I could have talked to him for hours. Throughly interesting bloke to talk to. I'm looking forward to his next visit down here.

LOL, Thanks for that, it was nice to have a coffee and meet you also.

It's refreshing to meet a Kiwi who doesn't wear gumboots and a Trump hat in church, (like James).

It wasn't me Ray, I'm left handed so I don't buy any of the old custom guns.

I started using that avatar on another website in 1999 and I haven't seen it slip yet.
