I know I've used this theme before, but it was a long time ago...

Oh .... sorry Mike , and thanks Big D thumbup1.gif
i remember flying down to Makarora in a Piper 235 from CHC on a flight test with a mate who worked on them , for a " Jimmys" steak and cheese pie .
We got there and couldn't get back due to weather , the owner was realy pissed off ..... it cost us more than the pie's (which were good)
