well ya would would you not? he posts for beginners, carefully cultivating a following, but he wrote off xarex, a lovely man, cultured and clever, knockin him off the board
bah,
Paul ya need to grow up ya started ok, dont let your pts tally run away with your head

[PAR]

My post wasn't directed to anyone in particular and any inferring such would be incorrect. I can count the number of times I've posted in the open forum on one hand and I'm fairly sure only one other time in this thread, where I posted a picture of myself.

As for Xarax, I remember beating on him in the water ballasted motorsailor thread, but I left that thread just after the first page and wasn't the worst of the lot in this regard. The thread continued for a few more pages without my participation, so clearly he had other reasons to bail out (if he has). Considering he posted yesterday and at least a dozen additional times after I left the motorsailor thread, you're may be miss informed.

[masalai]

I would appreciate it if Whoosh posted his posts without telling me what I was thinking, or why I posted....

[RHP]

You guys shouldnt be so harsh. PAR where can I get a copy of those plans please mate? :D

aa the beauty of a one way conversation . . .

Do´nt worry Guillermo, Paul (and I to a further extend) has beaten on xarax in another thread, so we have fallen into disfavour in Stu´s mind.

[Fanie]

Richard, you Germans must come right. I'm renovating a Hermle milling machine, what were you Germans thinking when you built these machines ??

The thing is as heavy as a tank... 800kg's. Do you have too much steel in Germany or what.

[Wynand N]

is that the one IN your house Fanie??

[Fanie]

Hey Wynand ! Geeezzz I thought you moved to anodder cuntry or something... ?? Were'nt you supposed to visit here when you went to Jo'burg recently ?

I don't think you saw this machine yet, it's a newish addition, and it's in the workshop... in the house. Of course friggin do you leave your tools outside ? :D

I apologize the pictures a little old but I'm the good looking fellow all the way to the left.

[Fanie]

We just have to have some fish pictures for a change :D Tiger fish, Jozini. Pitbull of our waters, fast and great fun. Yes they do floss... with our fishing line :D

I normaly look fairly retarded in any picture, so it's best if I take the pictures.

[Guest62110524]

fanie
first ever pic I have seen of you
pic says 1000 words. IF I were a woman I would fancy ya
theylook like the razor gang, mullet with teeth, eating?

[Guest62110524]

nice to meet you too

[Fanie]

:D Mullet you say. They become dominantly fish eaters when they become bigger. If you have never cought one of them then you don't know what fishing is. Weight for weight they outperform any sea or fresh water fish I've ever cought. Yes, they can rip you up, but if I was into those kind of kinky things I think I'd go for crocodiles instead and get a bigger bang for your byte ;)
pic says 1000 words.
Yes man, sorry about the lengthy self portrait there, but I'm sure I've posted a picture before... Maybe Jeff deleted it, I don't come out well in pictures.
IF I were a woman I would fancy ya
Yes well, pitty the gals don't think so either :D But you can put a word or so of the thousand in for me if you want. We live in poor times where one is unfortunately allowed to have only one old withch to give you grief.

Ahem... I feel much safer now knowing you and I live far apart :D

[Fanie]

Oh btw Whoosh, your son has a good looking girlfriend in your picture. Tell the wife I said so ;)

[dskira]

Fanie you looks good.
Just kidding. Your real picture is very nice.

[Guest62110524]

I could tell you some fishing yarns, but dunno if this is the place In 70-72 mum dad, I ran Port Fitroy guesthouse Gt Barrier Island NZ, we had 43 foot boat, it was my job to take the guests fishing. Sometimes was a riot 18 people fishing with handlines who mainly had never fished before
But once I did take a fishing author one Ray Doogue fishing, wa sa lesson as he caught 7 species in the one spot
But my fave was the giant snapper I caught only people who know snapper believe the yarn, it broke the trace on th surface I was glad of that it musta been over 60 years old
do you jig or troll for those?
sorry bout the signeture keep forgetting to take it off for gen posts

[ben2go]

Here's the newest pic of me.I look like a salty sailor.

[Fanie]

Not enough white in that beard to be a salty yet Ben ;) but you have potential :D Just keep at it, it will come ( so will old age :D).

I was wondering if one could persuade his higness mr Jeff moderator to add to the mysery on this thread :D

Any one ?

[Bamby]

Fanie,
Here's a couple of fairly old pictures of me I had to scan into the computer. Had a major crash a few weeks ago and the biggest thing about it that PMO was the fact I lost all the pictures I had. Word of advice, keep your computer backed up.

[dskira]

Quite good loocking our fellow Bamby. And the dog too is cute.
Have a Happy 2010 and a lot of nice fishing and outdoor.
Daniel

[Fanie]

Whoops Bamby, on the other thread I thought you was a girl... Boy, have you changed :D Appologies for that. Won't happen again. Fixed the other post up... :o

You had me cold turkey there.

My one fishing friend was here earlier tonight. We discussed it and we have been fishing disgustingly little this year. Ok, last year.

[Wynand N]

. Word of advice, keep your computer backed up.


tell me about that:mad: :mad:
Just lost mine last week due to a virus that came past all my protection and whacked my operating system files and left me with a computer that could not start up. Lost most of my data, emails, links etc.

....though it about time that people in the street can recognise me when I travel....

[masalai]

I recognise Frosty and his corncob, an unusual form of sculling (most prefer beer:D) a nice target rifle sans peep sights, a reasonable group, - at what range - ?indoors? - - - mine was an "Anschutz" (spel?)... was the first, one of your drawings? Cheers....:D:D:D:D

[Landlubber]

Hey Mas, 50 M outdoors, ten shots. Yep Anschutz.....but those were not on show, my Avatar was......anyhow, I have friends in low places....

[masalai]

Very nice, I ceased shooting (clay target, standard rifle, small-bore rifle and handguns, big bore handguns and indoor-airpistol) around '75 as my sight started to fail, - - also found tennis, golf, snooker/billiards & go-kart racing became all lost causes...

[Guest62110524]

today 25 c, sposed to be winter, took this as daylight fully came
I would rather live in Europe, but this spring there was no sun, how can one live without sun!!

[MikeJohns]

9 deg c overcast showers and drizzle here just south of Hobart. But the log fire is burning and it's cozy inside. Lots of baking going on and the smell of coffee. Time for friends and talking and eating and quaffing of good wine. Hah who needs the sun !

I just got a new computer so i don't have a photo yet. Me and my wife, probobly more me just got plan's for k-designs eco cruiser catamaran. Going to start about april too cold in mi till then. Does anyone know of someone that has built one of these? Or did i waste my money.This will be my first boat, looking forward to it i won't take any side jobs for a while planing on 30 hours a week till it is done. Doing side jobs till then giddy up

[MatthewDS]

Cleaning a King salmon last summer.

[Wynand N]

what do you do now that you no longer build mate

Still keeping busy at home doing some minor GRP repairs on stinkpots, retro fitment of buoyancy into small craft, issues COF's, small GRP moldings etc.
Also runs a small electro plating concern at home doing zink, tin, nickel, chrome and copper plating as well as aluminum anodizing.

Best of all, I have now the time on hand to build my Lotus 7 replica that was 30 odd years in the making and getting along nicely now.:cool:

Wynand, have you changed your look lately?

Guillermo, that's one of the perks of retirement - boredom. With time on hand one look at the mirror through different glasses at different times and sometimes (reads bored) do not like what you see and start experimenting - you should see my "Don King" phase before this pic was taken...:eek: and not to mention the current appearance - much to the annoyance of the old bird.
Perhaps that's why she continuously nags me to find something to keep my mind busy.:(

Finally, I prefer to stay retired from boat building and although I am posting again, it is only in the "Open Discussion" section and not at the Boating forums. My website speaks for me to those needing some advice;)

[Guillermo]

Well, Wynand, definitely I prefer the looking of DianneB! :D

Cheers!

Hi, Leo! :)
Do you have a camera at all times in the bathroom? Or then, do you read several books during the same bathing session? Do you have several bathrooms at home? Is it something Freudian? :D

No, they are just different hotel bathrooms, or "towing tanks and wave basins" as I like to think of them. :)

Eliseviv,


......nice toy.......swap ya for a nice bike?

[Wynand N]

Eliseviv, nice car, but mine is gonna be a little more traditional. For starters, nice wooden dash with classic ivory faced VDO's with brass trim. Body sides and tub will be bare aluminum, with deep red nosecone, bonnet, fenders and scuttle. Full windscreen of course....

Designed the suspension myself and at the rear it has an IRS unit with Ford Sierra 3.7:1 ratio diff. Power come from Toyota 3S-GTE series 2 turbo motor (from Celica GT) with my own light weight exhaust manifold made for turbo and all the lumps of cast iron removed from motor. Intake is also a custom aluminum plenum I built with the original TB fitted. Gearbox W58 unit.
Std motor makes 165kw (221hp) but mine should be about 170kw at least with the better manifolding system and ECU unit. And my car would weigh just less than 600kg completed - power to weigh ratio would put any supercar to shame:cool:

Your better than me... I simply bought a kit and assembled But my car has inspired a few more traditional cars once they have had a chance to drive the clubman. The "snot rocket" as its been dubbed int he street, is the 20V 4AGE (120kW) with the T50. In the mid 90s when I was building her the 4AGE/T50 was the natural progresion from the Kent/T9 ford gear. Now in Oz the engines are varied with Mx5/Lexus/Focus/3SGE being the main choices. Regardless, they are all great fun... 220HP will make is greater fun! The real fun though is the instant power oversteer thats possible as a nice showoff tactic ;-). Oh and BTW I shame expensive cars with 120kW...... With 160kW you will simply make them look silly :D
