Fw: NORTHERN BARBARIANS HAPPY NEW YEAR ! [TANKS]

[Grant Mahalek <gmahalek-at-shaw.ca>]

Hey all Northern Barbarians,

 

How's everyone doing?? How's your tank construction progress??

 

How about an informal get together.....bring what you have.......lets see if we can get a few battle ready tanks this year.

 

If we have a get together, we can show off our tank construction progress, help each other out with our expertise/experience, swap/trade/sell parts and pieces, have a tank construction work-bee, etc.

 

My home is always open for such a get together....we've got two spare bedrooms for the out of towners.

 

Talk to you all soon.

 

Cheers,

Great to hear from you Grant  I have not carried the flag so well this year  but would like to maybe pass it on to someone more able  I seem to have lost touch with most of Our team members !  I think that this could become something good in time  with a  great number of fine tank builders bar b q's on line meetings  I can also be reached  at TheCTDBarbarian-at-hotmail.com

Hey Robert,

 

Thanks for carrying the flag......and continuing with the newsletter/communications on behalf of "The Northern Barbarians"!!  Things seem to have been very quiet with  "The Northern  Barbarians" in 2006.

                                                                                                                                                                   &n bsp;                                                                                                             My son the philosopher coined a saying that I think fits for me...."Slow Go Is Better Than No Go".....this pretty much sums up the progress on my tanks this year LOL.

 

 

 

All fellow "Northern Barbarians",

 

Hope you've all had a good year and have alot to be Tankfull ;-) for!!

 

A get together of some sort this year would be a great idea.....lets keep it simple....at the very least lets get together to show off the progress on our tanks and help each other out to get battle ready.  I'd be happy to host a get together at my home. I'd be willing to travel within Alberta or Saskatchewan....no problem!!

 

Just an update. I'am working on two tanks at the same time right now, the Jadpanzer 38(t) Hetzer that I scratch-built and the T34-85 I was fortunate enough too get

from Jim Neifert out in Abbotsford, BC. Both tanks should be ready for battle this year and I sure would be interested in showing them off!!

 

I'd sure be interested in hearing about the progress on your tanks, knowing how everyone is doing and hearing your thoughts on the above.

 

Let's shoot some paint this year.....I hear our brothers to the south are starting an ugly rumor we "really" don't have any tanks up here in the "Great White North" ;-).......we're just hallucinating....or something......been out in the cold too much......frozen our melons or something.......

 

Looking forward to your replies.
