I wasn’t sure if you weee joking about the movie so u had to look it up…good grief

As for the last part I have a funny little anecdote about that from a month ago at work regarding a 21 year now ex employee.

Posting a link in Carls Lounge....the emu war is a thread derailer worthy of T.E. Lawrence

"Bloody Aussies" Indeed Sir!! Its that Aussie enthusiasm and joie d vie that won Gallipoli ...

Huh. Learn something every day... I never knew that Australia was part of the Ottoman Empire. I guess that explains Kylie Minogue's distinctive features.

As of mid September Spark said it was 270 sold. Can only imagine there's been a few more since then.

I played it by the book and sat out the pre-order as per international member request...I'm a proper chump hey meako !

You're not a chump, the international shipping & trade rules just have y'all in a bind.

Mate...
chump is a very strong word....I prefer honest ,down to earth ,law abiding chump. At least this knife will be big enough to gut Emus.

I think you will like the label ZHoovie ....I felt it should be a testimonial to Kevin this year for the reasons you mention...after all he is a kind of Stockman who looks after a herd of rowdy ,wild but very rare, valuable cattleOr... on the other hand it might be sucking up better than a Kirby Vaccuum cleaner.
The only thing we can be certain of is that there is a story around the knife.
