I have to ask, (Sorry if you've mentioned it else where) How did you come up with the names for your Foresters? Are they in a different language? or an acronym or even spilled alphabet soup?

Regards,

Joel

Have mentioned the red one elsewhere, but here it is again:

“Djulpan” (pron: joolpan)

It’s a Gumatj word from East Arnhem Land, and refers to the constellation “seven sisters”. Seven Sisters is a constellation known by many indigenous people both here and overseas. IN Japan it is known as Su-baru, hence the logo.

"Dulagarl"
A word used by Koories, including the Yuin people of Sth coast NSW, to describe what is otherwise called a Yowie or big hairy man / beast. In Koorie folklore it is the equivalent of our bogieman, mixed with the Nth American notion of bigfoot. (e.g. kids are told that if they are not careful the Dulagarl will get em). It seems a fitting name for the H6 monster.
 
Those are great names Djulpan.

As the official Subaru paint colour of my MY05 Outback is 'champaign', my car is called Charlie, from an old late 19th / early 20th century popular music hall song of the same name.

I'm kind of embarrassed about Ruby Scoo in the middle of the above banner!

But I'm glad you made it up with this one ^ Actually, this was the water race that got me into the type of trouble that you see on the previous banner - about 15/20 mins after this pic was taken to be exact!

Great pics of the two foz's together - Djulpan and Dulagarl! I've heard a bit about Djulpan and I've been lucky enough to be in the presence of Dulagarl - a great bit of kit!

Cheers

Reminds me of that famous line in the Toomstone movie... "Where's Wyatt?" "Down by the creek, walkin' on water" :cool:
 
Yeah looking good Mr Turbo!

I'm loving the scorpions - I don't think I could get tired looking at them!

Cheers

Bennie
 
Glad you like them :ebiggrin:

There's been some great pics posted up lately too :)

Might just have to work on making a few more this w-end I think (if I get some time) :cool:
