How did you go?

:thumbsup: :twobeers:

Funny that I remembered the 'Iced Vovo' question. It has always stuck in my mind, after reading about it, years ago. May have been in an old RACQ chronicle?

There have been a number of articles on it, Steve. It was always well maintained, but by no means Grampa's axe. It is still driven regularly.

I doubt it was in the "Road Ahead", after all, the article is motoring related.

Tsk, tsk. I did say 'Old', Ian.[smilebigeye]

Watching the Chase, I misheard the question "Where was Charles the first, executed?" My immediate thought was, how many times was he executed!

Irv Gordon’s P1800 has consumed:
107,400 gallons of gasoline
3,316 quarts of motor oil
829 oil filters
464 spark plugs
156 tires
29 sets of brake pads
29 fan belts
4 sets of shock absorbers
3 water pumps
3 generators

It should be a tad warmer than last time we camped there.

Ian, you do realize that is a long weekend don't you?

Even better, we can have two trivia nights. [biggrin]
