you look pretty smart there colin. you should be as proud as punch getting an award like that one. as far as you being short and the other bloke being tall, just think if the back drop fell it would hit him and not you, also if you got a bit drunk after the formal stuff you wouldnt have had as far to fall Laughing. once again , congrats

No financial benefits came my way Graham, though I received a few nice hugs and kisses from some ladies and more than enough beer and wine to last for awhile - got to be happy with those sorts of rewards.

Jacket

Fri, 2010-05-21 21:10

I reckon the jacket would make a real top notch fishing coat Col, fill one pocket up with mulies and the other to stick the tailor in.
Think about it, no walking back and fro getting bait and unhooking fish, lots of potential there for sure!!

Seriously though, well done and well deserved.
