[Farmall] Merry Christmas! (if and only if saying sodoes notoffend)

[Robert Johnson]

Martin , its been 10 years of drought , so this rain sure means a lot !.
I was in Sydney for a while , at the Infantry Centre , but left for SVN on 
the 16th of June 1970 .
Not only were a lot of International tractors sold here , but a lot were 
MADE here !.
I have an American W6 , and an Australian AW6 !.
I got to go over for the Sandwich Illinois Red Power Roundup in 2000, did a 
tour of the factory with a couple of busloads of people , some of whom are 
on this list.
It was an interesting experience !.
Regards Rob J.
