Welcome, Brett. Wave to The Reverend Sharp who is "just over the ditch" as you say down under.

Interesting expression, down under. How do you know that your girlfriend is too fat? When she sits on your face, you can't hear the stereo. :shock: :oops: :roll: :roll:

Muppet...... The muppets, Cookie Monster, kermit the frog, miss piggy, some one who uses a file to sharpen a blade and gouges out trenches in it

Welcome to the fold Brett !

Good to see more antipodean members surfacing here

I'm sure we'd all like to see some of your wares if you would like to share some pics

I have a few of my Builds and Rebuilds up here if you'd like to have a look.

Muppet is a common term of ridicule we use to describe the inept, dim-witted and those who suffer from N.F.I.

Hopefully there are few Muppets here!!

Welcome aboard, Brett. Lots of great info and members here.

As to muppets, I hadn't realized how much this term is used and how it is used. Had occasion to see "Cockneys and Zombies" recently. The term muppet was used frequently to refer to just about anyone not an East Ender. Honor Blackman was in a featured role. Time has not been kind to her, but then I look into my mirror and have similar observations on what is reflected. But I digress...

Welcome again!

Did you mean that in reference to the Antipodes? (a geographical and historical reference) Or did you mean in the polar opposite sense that he's close to you but distant from everyone else? (I know you couldn't mean that you're both contrary or descended from criminals! You wouldn't be so rude. :lol: :roll: Me, I'm a uncouth colonial and have no such compunctions!)
