Thanks very much Bennie. I laughed when I saw the 'daddy marrying momma' stuff too. It must be programmed into the forum rules because I just wrote the actual word...and it was changed automatically. Laughed like a drain when I saw it. Bast... is not a swear word out here, just sort of used for emphasis but I appreciate there are cultural differences. Certainly don't want to offend, just talk to people about pigs and stuff. I'm lucky now because I'm seen as a bit of an old man in this game in Oz so the young blokes tend to step in and take things from me so I don't hurt myself. I'm still reasonably fit but too stiff and sore in some places to be considered strong any more. The young men tend to be very respectful of old blokes who are still in the field and will take the weight from you. I make a fuss but don't put up too much of a fight ha ha. Can't remember if it was in the post about Dave but that boar was more than 105kgs live and that's what's on his back. That's about 230lbs. Dave's not a big bloke but he is strong and I'm grateful for that. I only had to carry it about 20 or 30 metres after he knocked up (got tired). And I am aware that means something else over there. Thanks for the invite. You might regret it though because SuperJen and I are contemplating a trip in the next 18 months... Cheers.
