capt jake Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Wishing all of you a Happy Thanksgiving!!! And to all of you abroad a very great day (you should celebrate too you know!)!! :) I know it is a little premature, though I will be working, so I had to get it out when I have the chance. Happy holidays! now to deal with the crowds! Quote
SeaEagle Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Capt Jake, Thanks for the sentiment However, I think the whole Thanksgiving thing with a vocabulary including 'Mayflower','Pilgrims','Turkey' and 'Yams' is lost on your average Antipodean! :wink: We struggle with the whole concept of a modern Christmas, (i.e. snow, roast meals - in 30+ deg C). I'll make you a deal though - I am prepared to give it a try, if you promise to celebrate ANZAC day with us! Regards Quote
Fintan Murphy Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 I'll go along with SeaEagle. I'll celebrate Thanksgiving, and have the pennys lined up for Anzac day, if you'll celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Wait a minute...... Quote
Johannah Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Jake, you beat me to it. 8) Let me wish you all a fine Thanksgiving Day, wherever you may be. I do give thanks for friends and family, including friends in virtual boat land! We wish you every blessing and fair winds, of course. Quote
Steve Downs Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Ditto from the frozen mountains of Southern Utah. Fintan, I already celebrate St. Patricks Day. I lived over there for a couple of years from 1964-1966 and I have a lot of fond memories of the emerald isle. We're planning on going back in June and visit the old haunts as well as the rest of the British Isles. Can't wait. Quote
Tom Holder Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Happy Thanksgiving? That was weeks ago. This is Happy "Stay Home From Work and Watch Football" Day up here in Canada! And I'm thankful for it! Quote
Fintan Murphy Posted November 27, 2003 Posted November 27, 2003 Steve, let me know when you're coming and I'll organise to meet up. Hopefully, I won't get a speeding ticket this time Right Frank :oops: By the way, where were you staying in Ireland? You left the year I was born (1966), hopefully that was just coincidence, and judging by the difference in our skill levels with wood (after seeing your blocks and wheel on the other post) - I know we're not related.
