Yes.They had changed to the uniform system when I moved to Qld in early 1962, but not only were there still a lot of cars about with 'Q' numbers, but all the forms etc still referred to 'Q numbers'. I think the change must have been in the late fifties, although I remember when my father bought a new (S/H) car in 1953 (NSW) it came with the six digit uniform system, which had been agreed between the states - NSW started with AAA, Victoria with GAA, and Qld with NAA, although Qld may not have started on the system until they ran out of 'Q' numbers - I can't remember whether they were Q+five or Q+6. My Series 2 registered in Qld in 1963 was NRF812.

SupporterThere will be no more Land Rover work for a while , I promised my wife I would some jobs around the house after All British Day , but I was hopping to have Landy finished by ABD . like replacing a dry rotted retaining wall in front of the garage & re oiling our out door furniture. I think she has quite a long list for me to do, there are a lot of trees in the front garden that are badly drought affected that need cutting down as the guy who designed our garden has said they are never going to come back to what they were. Some of these trees were here when we moved in 35 years ago & are almost all dead wood. I will try to sort out the gear box selector problem on rainy days when I can not do the jobs she wants doing out side.
I WONDER HOW MANY DIVORCE CASES ARE CAUSED BU LAND ROVER FEVER ?Just kidding but I am sure there are cases some were in the world.

SupporterWe have had some Swallows nesting in the garage & the nest is in the rafters between Landy & my wife's car so hasn't bothered me until this morningIMAG1522.jpg You can just see the nest about 100mm from the rafter
The young are almost ready to leave home IMAG1521.jpgIMAG1525.jpg & are taking short flights but that,s not all they are doing IMAG1524.jpgIMAG1526.jpg I have nor covered Landy with plastic until they leave. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
I know next year when the arrive to either cover Landy or try to chase them away, not sure how though .

Hi,
Laser pointers will agitate most birds, maybe enough to discourage further nesting?
Cheers

People over here use plastic owls and sit them in the shed rafters. Don't know where they get them from.
