My BIL in Katoomba has just given me a Chinese wooden plane (the grandfather of Terry Gordon's gems), some braces, bits and clamps to GIVE AWAY at the BMGTG ..... it doesn't get better than that!

Actually Fletty, it does. John (Orraloon) is giving a performance on his new Cigar Box Guitar.
Oh and huzzah for the BIL. Top bloke. Is he coming to the GTG? We would never turn away anyone bearing gifts. Not even the Ancient Greeks.
I'm actually after a brace and bits. We might have to hold a raffle.

Don't forget the honey tasting.

Way to go Orraloon! Big Stan started the tradition by playing and singing the 'Woodshow Blues' at the end of SWWW on his plank guitar and it is worth stay back for, SO we need a blues song for John to close the KGTG2015...

how about ( to the tune of house of the rising Sun)

there is a house in Kat-oom-bah
they call the FF deck
with Lola near
and a fresh cold beer
it is the best by heck?

with one foot on the high deck
and the other foot on the ground
it is I sigh
a step too high
With hernias all around

so l'm going back to the FF deck
to find my Chinese plane
is Christos here?
he's left his beer
before heading off by train

etc.

Oh my goodness me, All we need now is someone to bring a boat to tie up a the FF Wharf.....

And it'll be not the ballad that Alan penned but a ship full of drunken sailors on the dance floor....

I can just see it now, walking the plank after 1 too many plonks

Actually, I could rig up a plank off the side of the deck rather easily. Six quick screws to anchor about a metre of it on the deck, etc.....

I'd better bring the camera - specially if there's walking the plank and other serious stuff

No worries, but I'll need some instruction on how to use it.

Unless you want to do a selfie on the plank? Could be tricky when blindfolded.

where's the dislike button!

Dunno, but by all means interpret my like of this post as a dislike.

Put him in the scuppers with a hose pipe round him
Put him in the scuppers with a hose pipe round him
Early in the morning.

Could be a late night .
