Merry Christmas & Happy New Year my Feathered Friends

[Dan]

Definitely mate. Heading to Swansea for NYE, but here all the other times. I'm getting fit again this year.
Jas is having an argument in the loungeroom with our "Hey Google" client - LOL
Also love to get your help making a new arcade machine this year...or migth actually buy one - but need your help to pick it (make sure all those mame games are on it). Was thinking of a Pinball Machine, but too big, it's just one game, and could see myself getting bored of it

Something like:

Too easy mate, keen to get fitter too after eating so many deep fried dutch food.
Arcade machine too easy. Happy to help you build or buy one. I like building them, its a good project that keeps us out of trouble 🙂 However buying one could work too. Lets have a chat. I need to get a pair of running shoes as I chucked mine in Amsterdam. I will organize that this week sometime and we can start. I will put your through my old training routine, even once or twice a week will have you fit in no time

And Merry Xmas to the rest of you and a happy new year.
My wife is heading out on the town for NYW so you will hear her if you are in Sydney, she isn't quiet... I am hanging out with the kids, taking them to the fireworks and then passing out before midnight I think!

Hope you all have a happy and safe NYE

The jump was 3 cm's wide and 2500 metres up high. 😛

Sorry to interrupt ST's biggest bromance (lol - kidding) but I never got bored with pinball as each go is like a different game as the ball never goes in the exact same spot!

But I understand what you're saying.

Mario Brothers and Addams family were my fav's (I guess as they were the main ones around).

Ok carry on.

Would love a KISS pinny tbh, but they go for like 20k

I've got great memories of the old Bally "8 ball" pinball machine. Put plenty of 20 cent coins in that.

Or the Playboy one was a fave too.

Does anybody remember playing the pinball machines at the Polar Bar on Harbord road in the 60's?

My apologies for not posting a Merry Xmas on the actual day , but we were a tad busy.

If you want a few nice Xmas stories how about these.

On Xmas Eve morning the local choral society arrived in my son in law Micks front yard to sing carols.

We got Mick out of bed, and into a wheelchair , got his portable oxygen going and wheeled him out to his front patio, he was blown away by the effort they made.

They stayed for 45 minutes , sang about a dozen songs and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.

Moments later the Woolworths manager rolled up with $400 of groceries not to be outdone by the Coles manager who rolled up a few minutes later with $300 worth of seafood.

And not long after one of the local butchers rolled up with a $100 ham, a massive Turkey and a huge roast leg of pork.

And to top it off the local Target Country arrived with a huge pile of LEGO ( which the little boys just love), what a morning it was, as I said not a dry eye in the place all day.

The community spirit of a small country town such as Moree is hard to explain, it gets bagged as a bad place to live where in reality a small part of it is bad and the rest fantastic.

Bear in mind there’d already been a Fund raiser early in the year which raised $75k to complete the renovations of their house due to Mick not being able to work anything like full time for 4 years.

And add to that the $24k raised in the Go Fund Me project a few years ago which so many of you so generously donated to which enabled them to create some fantastic memories.

Mick and the family had a wonderful Xmas day but sadly he’s going downhill very fast, he can’t walk, can hardly breath and is on massive painkillers just to get through a day, we are hoping he can make his 40th in late January and I’m very confident he will.

But after that , who knows!!

So yes a belated Merry Xmas to you all!!

Identity theft is a crime....
but I won't tell😎
Btw, will you be wearing 'hat' at the winter olympics?

 

[niccipops]

Went into the terrain park the other day for the first time.
Hit a jump and must have went...oh about 4 or 5 cm's high!

lol

If you were a tiny mousie in cute little snow gear, sponsored by Burton of course, that would have been super impressive.😛

I was planning to be at the Olympics.... but lack of talent got in the way. It's like so totally political!
