First of all I want to say I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! And it's a pleasure being part of the community
I received a text late last night from @JayCee about a Blue MBH on Gumtree. Unfortunately it was a long way away


So I sent Agent BJ aka @bear a message seeing if he would be able to agent it.
I went to bed and woke this morning to a message saying he'd seen the ad and would be happy to agent.
By 9:00 this morning he had organised a time to meet the seller and by 2:00pm it was in the back of the truck. I know @kendoll has one but I think this is the 2nd Blue MBH seen in existence in OZ.
I'm not sure what I'm more stoked about, the fact that someone was willing to pick up a kettle and pay for it or that I'm getting one of my grails.
It's very reassuring to know that someone will take the time to package it correctly ready for pick up
Anyway here's a couple of pics from the ad, there's a few beauty marks but still looks pretty sweet
I'm figuring it's a B code but maybe bear can confirm




More pics to come when it arrives and gets the Hogsy treatment

I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers

Last night while looking on my google machine, I spotted a blue MBH for sale and thought to myself:

"I might know someone who wants one of those"

And I went straight to the WKC forum to send a message, only to find a PM there waiting for me from none other than Hogsy informing me of his interest.

This morning, after a few attempts I called the seller and  organized a time to meet.

Upon arrival, when seeing it for the first time my eyes were dazzled by the brilliant blue.

Then my attention was immediately drawn to the lid vent code. B for beautiful!

Anyway, won't be long and it will be on it's way to you @Hogsy

Awesome find!!!  Good looking out @bear.
Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn't?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I've amassed a nice collection, but I'm missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞
