So where is Taffy (MacGyver) Evans??

Hope all is OK and our resident Frank Ford has not been washed away with all the flooding on the east coast :( I am sure he will be fine because even if he was caught in a flood he would probably have knocked up a quick ark from odds and sods in the workshop and floated his family off to safety.

Just a little worried that we have not heard from him for a while tis all.

Cheers

Didn't Taffy mention that he'd be down in Adelaide around now? Perhaps getting a chance to be shown into the deep recesses of Martin's tonewood bunker.

Nice to hear in church but not in a Mexican prison.

Hope he took his GPS with him so he can find his way back out, I hear it's a jungle in there, or at least it was once anyhow.

Now there's a point, I wonder if all this weird weather with the floods and all could have been caused by the weight of Martin's tonewood collection tilting the planet off it's axis?? Food for thought in that I reckon.:wink:

I spoke to him about ten days ago in the local music store here in Townsville. Taffy has a son who lives in Adelaide and he is visiting him this month sometime.

Cheers

Either that or the massive de-forestation just to keep the stocks up are having an effect on global weather patterns.

Hi all here I am still alive and lutherying and repairing. I've been trying to get all important jobs out of the way before I leave town, 18th April. Every time we go up or down the coast my wife gives me sh** cos Ive either got a guitar or something to pick up or drop off, so I've been trying to keep in the good books...............That was until I arranged to drop off a Gibson Les Paul to a customer in Mt Isa, on our way to Adelaide via Alice Springs. Thanks all for your concern, I'm now playing catch up with all the threads.
