    Or you could try to convince her that Festool Green is the trademark color of the Kiwi equal of our Harbopr Freight, I assume you have such a store there...

    BTW I hope "Kiwi" is not a perjorative term, if so my apologies, I certainly did not mean it as such!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.

    Takes more than that to offend a Kiwi.

    Luckily she can't tell one tool from another, so reasonably easy to fool.

    Glad to here it, my only connection to NZ is a love the for All Blacks, a group I imagine are hard to offend, however as a group or individually they are folks I would not remotely want to offend! Having played a little in the US the fact that I wore #13 I am sure you will understand why I wouldn't want to offend that type of guy especially if they have a 1-8 on their chest!

    Good to see your lads at the world cup last year.

    They are getting better all the time.
