Behind the lines in Bill's realm

#1 Post by Harley »

I had the pleasure of being Bill's guest ( for the second time ) over the last couple of days and got some insight into behind the lines of BFM cab design.

The recipe is relatively simple really;
Image
A bit of this therapy every couple of days......

Image
Another angle on the therapy....

Image
A little advice from the resident coach Paul-Kor-Pine

Image
...followed by a barbeque that requires completeing the education of this Krazy Kiwi visitor in some local after build traditional French PL removal agent....

Image
...and some Italian PL removal agent.

What a blast. Thanks Bill. This part of my US 2013 trip has truly been a highlight.

No hard surfaces nearby ..... I say nice backyard for some decent RTA work at full blast :cowboy:

Good to see you make such an effort to see remote friends. My hat off to you for traveling all around the globe for that.

Ain't it a reference to 'Charlie' from Charlie's Angels?, ...who was just a voice sounding over a loud speaker.

All in all, I think you're blessed to have had such a trip. In the amplified bible, it gives the meaning of blessed as happy, fortunate, to be envied. Indeed.

I want to know how that cricket swing worked out on the golf course.
If it's too loud, you're even older than me! Like me.

I was too busy being the Kiwi caddy for Tiger Fitzmaurice and repositioning the golf cart at odd times to find out :fruit:

Not a milligramme of alchohol passed my lips whilst on the course :clap: The featured PL remover was for later on in the evening.
