davidpretorius · #1 14-12-2005, 11:07 AM

Mum asked me yesterday how it was all going with the telescope. Great i say, my dob driver and .. and .... and..... after taking a breath, i then realized she was fishing for something to buy me for xmas.

It clicked last night that i now have the platform for a 5x powermate.

So, seeings that tassie is part of melbourne, i have ordered off anthony@bintel a powermate 5x not an hour ago. It is coming from sydney, but i want to make sure melb gets the sales!!!

so sorry guys, but the weather is already crap so hopefully this purchase can't make it any worse!!

time to update the signature. I HAVE A TELEVUEEEEEEEEE

Davo .... welcome to the TV club!

I've been dying to say that. What a laugh

Who's been a very good boy then? Santa's been good to you

Congrats Dave,

Notice we all write congrats because we can't spell congratulations.

Well done on the 5x powermate mate.

When you adjust your signiture make sure you leave your daughter's quote first in there.

Sorry guys, but no advertising! You have to learn to sneak it in:

Hi Davo, when you sit in your Loungeroom do you get a good Telly View?
And always keep possession of the TV remote control, coz that's Power, Mate! 5 Times more than you would think.
