G'day Vic.
Good to see you pop in now and again.. ... Umm

Crank Handle
Toys without batteries
Cracker night, (did someone say this one already?)

And something you rarely see;
A man in a hat, walking along the road, whistling.
Kids playing marbles

G'day Zondrae,

I wear hats and love to whistle. Think I inherited humming and whistling from my Dad. Do it automatically without thinking and often in the wrong places.
Just been booked to appear at Cobargo Folk Festival and the National FF in Canberra next year. Looking forward to seeing you and all our old mates who we haven't seen for a couple of years.

God show,

I will look forward to seeing you and Helen at Cobargo. I have already booked our early bird tickets. Have you got some new material?
