How Good are these Swaggers
« on: April 22, 2012, 10:05:00 AM »
The story is I am buying a new Trailer and wanted some black rims to match up with rims I bought for the Cruiser.

Brett had two to spare so these we set aside for me

Couple of days ago Brett posted on Face book that he was loading the cruiser to go one Holidays and Visit Bullfrog in Grafton.  With a quick off the cuff comment to Brett he found space in the cruiser for my two rims.  Idea was to leave them with Bullfrog and I was going to organize to pick them up from Grafton.

Next thing I know I get a message from Bullfrog saying that Brett had dropped off the rims.  Then he tells me he has organized Navara04 to truck them to Sydney.

I get a confirming message from Mark(navara04) that he is organizing the rims from Grafton to Wetherill Park in Sydney(their depot) and hopefully they will be here at the end of the week.

What can I say about these swaggers, I have never meet either of them, they organized it all from one comment on Facebook, yes I have had  replies to posts etc but never meet face to face.  These three guys are what this forum is all about, they are absoutly fantastic :cup: :cup:.

I can't thank you guys enough for all your organizing etc.  I just hope I can return the favors one day and get to have a coldie around the campfire one day soon.

To Brett, Bullfrog and Navara04, you guys rock and you're the best :cup:

Cheers

I must confess, I had F all to do  :-[. Brett called into work to say hello after touring round the Clarence & dropped the wheels off. Turns out Mark & I were thinking along the same lines ( now THAT is a big worry !! ;D). So, all I did was take them home & bring them back over the river to load them into Marks Navara. Jeez I worked up sweat I tell ya mate!!! As long as they get to you safe & sound mate, no thanks needed or expected. As Snow would say " it's the Swagger way"  :cheers:

It is the Swagger way. Another example of the community that has developed from this forum.

That is how we swaggers roll. :cup:

I too would like you thank you guys.  I am regularly and pleasantly surprised by the thoughts and wishes, etc on this forum, and your gestures and efforts put such a big smile on Carl's face. 

Thanks Brett, Bullfrog and Navara04.  :cup:

You reckon you'd have any hope of a case of crowny's getting through Brett, Bullfrog and Nav04, you'd be lucky if the box didn't get eaten on the way.    ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
