I haven't heard from Henry personally, but Col Kelson tells me he'll be heavilly involved in
selling his house that weekend, preparing to relocate down Ned and Shep's way, so sadly,
we may not have the priviledge of Henry's company this year...! #-o

And thinking of our forthcoming celebrations also makes me think of...

:heart:

WOMEN... :love1:

Woman is a man's best friend. :love3:

She will reassure him when he feels insecure and comfort him after a bad day. :goodman:

She will inspire him to do things he never thought he could do; to live without fear and forget regret. $\:D/$

She will enable him to express his deepest emotions and give in to his most intimate desires. :argue:

She will make sure he always feels that he's the most handsome man in the room and will enable him to be confident, sexy, seductive and invincible. :king:

No wait...... :roll:

sorry...... :oops:

I'm thinking of beer. :drinkers:

It's beer that does all that. :occasion5:

Sorry.

But don't take my word for it, find out for yourself, come and join us on our
2011 Annual RAN Skilled Hands Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl Smokey... :partyman:
