He waved.
That is all.

Yes, I'm a little excited.
I Spotted a dark blue Defender with a white roof entering the Western Highway from the Greendale on ramp. It was a four door with a black canopy over a rear tub.
I didn't notice if it was a 110 or 130 as I was somewhat distracted.
It was towing something in Auscam. Was it a No5? No, it had mud guards like a Track. Was it a Track? No, it had a single axle with leaf springs. Must be a civvy painted in Auscam. No, it had TAC holders on the back and on the lower front of the RHS it had an ADF data plate. Could it hae been a 750kg Haulmark? I've not seen one in the paint. From pictures the draw bar appears longer than this one appeared.
There. I'm calmer now.

Was that the drivers or the vehicles "being retired pretty soon"?

Last Saturday, the 28th, on the Calder, 2pm, Gisbourne exit, one of the ex-army Td5's that were auctioned recently.
Anyone on the forum?

Spotted out the back of Dandenong,, a D3/4 G4 heading onto Greens Rd from Frankston Dandy Rd.
Too bad it was dark, I'd have liked to have had a better view of it,,
Anyone here?

Heading along princes highway and was in the left hand lane in preparation for a left turn into Belgrave Hallam road at the Hallam pub intersection. I was tooted by a white county with the number plates V 8 Landy. Did not get a chance to acknowledge the toot as I was a tad busy with gears, indicators, traffic etc etc.
