From Cold Canada

[twinotter600]

G`Day from cold Canada. I have been an active member on Patrol4x4 for some time and am just spreading my wings. Currently own 3 Y60 Safaris with the TD42 and TD42T, lots of parts in my stock and I like to help out. I run Nissan FAST and have a fair knowledge of the Y60s. I perform all my maintenance and help out the Canadian Safari Club where I can.

Currently drinking a nice Shiraz to be followed by a few rummies after cutting and splitting wood all day.....

Zo, cheers.

then up your way , he did mention Polar bear hahahahahahahahah no chance of that i would`nt and could`nt shoot one of those

what is up there for hunting ??? and do you hunt??

[twinotter600]

There are no buffalo in North america and polar bears are a long ways away from where I live. Yes I do hunt but have to make time for it. Been busy with a 4 year old and a 9 month old. Might try some wild chickens if the weather goes a bit colder. It's deer season now but too warm for any real hunting.

Welcome!!
Nice to see how many Patrol maniacs are all around the world. Ha, ha.

Nice beauties You've got up there. Is this turbo set for TD42? What particular make is it?

[twinotter600]

Godspeed turbo with and aftermarket highmount manifold for the TD42

[frenzy]

Welcome aboard! Ribs are one of my favourite feeds. Do you call em USA ribs over there?

[twinotter600]

That's a fair bit of an insult frenzy!

[Bigrig]

That's a fair bit of an insult frenzy!

I dunno - in Brazil they just call them 'nuts' ... not Brazil nuts ... lmao

I'd go one further, do they call it American Rancho sauce ... or just Rancho sauce ... coz American ribs with American Rancho sauce is somewhat a favourite of mine ...

Mmmmmmm ... ribs .... lol

Try and guess what I've got a hankering for now!!!!

[twinotter600]

These ribs are CANADIAN DAMMIT.

hay frenzy he aint any where the u.s of a mate hahahahahahaha

Actually, he isn't that far from the USA. But not as close as me. Most Canadians live within an easy drive of the border. The USA has good ribs but not maple ribs. Thankfully it has some very good microbreweries to wash it all back with. There regular market beer is more like p!ss water than beer. I am sure Twinnotter is enjoying his drinks right now before heading back up north to a dry camp.

[twinotter600]

Don't remind me. Still feeling the last rummie after staying up and playing with the wife. In the airport now for my last frigid rotation. One more night of beer/booze before 21 dry days in the dark.

That is actually warmer than a few places on the prairies this weekend. But it is suppose to get better later on in the week.

No woman and no drink... Hmmm? I'd say keep warm but I can't see how in those circumstances. :shivering: :wink:

[Stumpjumper]
