Hi Sunny Mick, they are sort of "Blue Walls" until I take off the protective film.

I hope the other Honey Beige turns out the same Ratbox & FB MAD.

Thanks Mini, EKSPCL, Thommo, Tim.

Thanks for helping out Tim.

I will put up some more pics when the engine goes in.

I like how the stables are housing the real treasures rather than those other turners ( turn food in to sh@t ) in the background of one of the snaps..... :wink:
Whatever....:(

Dave, nothing wrong with horses 8) they are alot of fun (and a hell of alot of work) :D heres a pic of me and my 12 year old Brumby mare 14.3 hands high. It taken about 12 months ago when I had a beard. Beautiful little horse and works very well.

Beautiful Horse FBW. Where is your FB in the back ground?

Hi Dave, didn't think you would spot that Honey hanging out of the shed.

You got to be kidding. I have to compete with clan Jackson in finding these shed beauties,
and I am ssssooooooooo far behind :? :cry: .
Can spot one at 1000 paces in a paddock full of lucen :twisted: .
And as for the turners any thing that out weighs me a approx 4 x and has a wild mind of its' own should be given a wide birth.....
Ask me about my horse riding days sometime, they are right up there with my dirt bike days. :wink: :wink:
Whatever....:(

That's the plan. Although, with the Bob, we may add a little noise :)
