I am a lucky man, Stitchwiz.

John- Agree about the DC! Our kids went to the same school as the DC kids. Our son graduated with Alan's daughter a number of years ago. Their senior party was at Phil's house. Uncle Si was "my" Grand Marshal for the past two Veterans Day parades and a speaker at our associated Traveling Wall ceremony. (I was Ride Captain for the lead-off motorcycles and overall chair this past year.)

Hi Guy and a warm welcome from sunny Queensland!

I almost hesitate to ask what "Tubular Meats" might be?

**Guy III** · 6th February 15, 10:28 AM

Visited Queensland many years ago. Loved it. Have good friends who are Sydneysiders. "Tubular Meats" are hot dogs, bratwursts, and other torpedo-shaped sausages that many people enjoy eating garnished with a popular yellow condiment. Easy to cook over the open fires we use at an encampment.

Hi, Guy, and welcome to X Marks from the bottom end of Africa.
You wear the kilt well. Mustard is a colour I don’t object to in clothing (I have a pair of mustard kilt hose), but I’m not too fond of the condiment (long story).
Regards,
Mike

Mike Oettle- Thanks. I don't use the condiment myself so no explanations necessary

We were fortunate enough to visit your country the first two weeks of last September. Cape Town, Blue Train to Pretoria/Joburg and a few days of safari in Hoedspruit. Absolutely loved it! Did not want to come home. I don't need to say anything about the scenery and animals but we also fell in love with the people of your country.
