    Quiet Saturday Drive

    Took the missus out in Leon for a little drive (yes I said DRIVE). Went down the back roads towards Rocksberg and stopped at Zillman Crossing. (those who know the area will know) Back in the car and another Land Rover dawdled past, Bloodbox OLR 067. Saw us and waved, but didn't stop. We were a tad disappointed, but I suppose he had lots to do on a Saturday afternoon.
    Always up for a chat.

    G'day All, Numpty I dunno what Paul was thinking maybe he thought you needed some time on your own, he is possibly doing some small shake down cruises in the Bloodbox proir to him setting off into the distance (lucky , I'm currently on night shift until early in the New Year so I won't be doing anything Land Rover until then, anyway all the best to you and yours cheers Dennis
    PS Yes it was.

    ummm...posted a reply...doesn't seem to have goin through...

    normally I would stop Numpty. But we had been on the road for 3 hours in the heat and noise of the bloodbox. Added to that a few days in the bush and d***heads on the highway therefore the push for home was on.if you want to catch up or maybe go for a run with a few other series ppl from just area drop us a line, not far away.

    yes Dennis just a test run,learnt a fair bit from it, never heard rattles like it....all in all a fantastic little trip, just up to Landcrapper park Jimna, place was full of idiots. Planning on going out to Carnavon Gogre around April May for a few weeks, bit of a tour up through Emerald and back down through Gaydndah etc.

    Lets see if this one posts....

    cheers

    All understood. It's just you don't often see someone you actually recognise from the site.
    Hope you enjoyed your time away. Have only been to Landcrapper when hardly anyone there. Agreed it could be a haven for di*kheads.

    Twas offered Pedro, but she declined. Didn't want to drive either. Said she will take Leon out after I go back to Hamo on Wednesday. And sorry, no pictures.

    G'day Folks


    I'am back on after having no phone line for 5+ days, the Bl**dy line corroded in the pit over the road, it's had a repair order on it for 2 3/4 years now


    Best wishes to All for the New Year and also Christmas wishes to OLR-067 (Paul).


    Yep! a run and or a BBQ sounds like a good idea as there are a few of us loonies in the area mid-late January could be good, it would have to fit in with Numpty's and Missus Numpty's timetables, but there would be a few goers I think.


    Cheers
