.So again please accept my apologies Ody it was all a "misunderstanding". 

I thought that the "Eh?" ???? was a good Kiwi compromise...????

I think you may have misinterpreted my play on words there Ody I was just taking the puss!See that's the kiwi accent.Relax and don't take things too literally.I do have a warped and cryptic sense of humour so I'm sorry if you were offended by it, it wasn't intended to offend.

Eh?????

You just seem like a very angry fellow living in exile to me.

Now.. I quoted Mr Owl in his post and asked him if "farang" was a literal form of address-it seems that it is,so replied to and done and dusted.

"Mrs Owl. That section of road leading into Ban Dung is terrible." "OK for me. Farang just miss holes; easy."

Owl-I know that you often write in jest but-at the risk of being intrusive-does your wife often call you "farang"to your face?

Ah....social media and the Covid-a bit like Pandora's box (or jar, if you prefer)

The quality of the photos have improved Mr Owl!

Thank you for the pleasant post.????

Back on topic....????????

 

Yes..I think so too...it's quite surprising that the subject has popped up here.

2 years ago wasn't it?

I had major trouble with the drains at my place-which are hopefully in the process of being corrected at the moment as some renovations are going on partially due to the fact that they have built up the soi outside by a couple of feet..with little or no drainage.

Well I think 'The old Dinasaurs' did a wrong un.

 

Yinn was a good read. Made things interesting. Some of the more 'unique' posters have gone walkies; Even Stevens, Ray2702, Zerchnov and Scottie John spring to mind.

 

 

 

 

I thought that the poster who compered that election did a very good job-but I have forgotten his name-certainly the whole thing was quite ferocious and POTY seems to have disappeared.

The World News has also gone and I miss "Morch" and "Simple1" as they were excellent posters.

The photo of the eucalypts was taken from a car at speed..but these two are static.(the usual slight drop to the right)

I'm really annoyed with myself, that I'm not able to post decent pic's.

Hi Owl,

Has the photography improved?

Have you been able to tweak Linux a bit?

I must admit that I prefer Mr Sabatini's more gentle and civilized humour-and a thank you for providing one of the great opening lines in any 20th century novel.

I am thankful that I found HUMOR at an early age.

 

My teachers were not as pleased.

Hope all is well

Going okay..

I hope that I will get a photo of the 'Grandis Ode' tomorrow-tho' the weather has been rather cold and rainy..still, hopefully the vertically enhanced gum tree will stay on it's best behaviour for the occasion..

How are things going over there?
