Nice Birthday Surprises

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Tempestnut – Waikato – errrr, no thanks. I wouldn’t touch the stuff with a barge pole. That’s the beer for people with skinheads, goatees and dirty singlets mate! 😀 And it ain’t even made in the Waikato neither!

Don’t worry, I did sink a few Lion Reds, which on the scale of things is not the best beer either but a million times better than Wakatoo, as it’s known.

Dave Lion Red, yes good choice, however things have obviously changed more than I thought. We use to drink DB or Waikato in my university days in Hamilton. More beer than lectures I think. I didn’t notice too many people with skinheads, goatees and dirty singlets in those days or perhaps that was because we were all like that. Have a couple more for me

WHAT THE.

Phew :rolleyes: , glad you where talking about a nice old plane Dave 😀 .
For a minute I thought you were talking about yet another birthday treat :p 😀 😮 , Cheer’s mate, :dev2: Tally Ho! Phil :diablo: .

I Just Saw a Beaver!

Cheers All.

Well, it is now B-Day + 1, and I was just out in the garden picking tomatoes when I got another aerial treat

The New Zealand Warbirds lovely DH Beaver just flew over Cambridge. It looked lovely as usual in its bright red RNZAF Antarctic scheme, but it sounded even better! What an impressive sounding engine, I’d forgotten how deep and throaty it was.

Seventh Heaven again.

Right, tomorrow some Spitfires and Hurricanes please 😀

Happy Birthday Davey boy.

How doe’s Pearl Harbour Dave sound for a new user name 😀 , With say a jap dive bomber for your Avitiar Mate :p :p :p .
Sound’s like you had a good one Dave 😎 , Happy day’s 😉 .
Cheer’s all, :dev2: Tally Ho! Ho! Ho!,Phil :diablo: .(being close to xmas)

Happy B Day matey boy, greetings from the Motherland. A certain Mustang whizzes over my place occasionally on a Sunday afternoon during the “season”, so I know how these unexpected flyovers can really make your day !! 🙂
All the best.
Phil.

You talking about Snapper Dave? 😎 And me for that matter (‘cept I wash my singlets). :p

Haha, sorry, no offence – nobody foes it quite like Waikato drinkers (you also require a Rottweiler, a solo mum for a girlfriend, a defunct Valiant in the back yard and no job to qualify as a real Waikato drinking man! 😀 )

Todd, no pics. It was all very impromtu and over very quickly, yet still very nice to see.

Hello Dave,

Happy Birthday!!!!!! The flyby sounds excellent! Did you manage to get pics? 🙂

Cheers,

Todd

Have a great birthday, Dave.

If you get to Classic Fighters, you should also try and get to Warbirds Over Wairarapa, Jan 22-23.
We should hook up if you do as I’m going to both.

Cheers
Chris

Melvyn – you’re adopting Aussie pronunciation I see. Life’s a beach …

Happy birthday Dave and have a nice Waikato for me as well

Sorry, misheard you.

I have been sleeping with two duvets and two blankets!! Usually by December it’s one sheet only.

I can get through most days with just one sheet.

Well Dave,
Hope you have a great day. For what it’s worth, I for one enjoy your contribution to the forum, and your recent resillence ( 😉 ) is noteworthy. Happy 21st… and here’s to many more happy returns.

Cheers

happy birthday dave

Happy birthday, Dave!
