    Hey Jim it is a nice car yours is & with what use have spent on it & use both like it & Mrs Aus likes driving it aswell plus she still takes her mum shoping i guess & she can get in & out of it ok..

    We are well up here banjo and gang

    Not much happening with 'bessie's' resto, there always seem to be something on 'herc' to do

    Plus we have found a huge white ant nest on the shed wall, so we have been doing a lot of cleaning up

    We are clearing out little shed of the work benches and putting them in the big shed, much easier to work with the vice etc, the little shed has a rolling door so we can fit 2 vehicles in there and they can be locked up

    I think that's all for now

    Well, it's been sunny for the last couple of days so I managed to apply the first coat of sealer to my driveway. Sprinkled ground glass over it as I went, this prevents people slipping.
    It took me about an hour and a quarter to apply 20 litres of sealer. The driveway is one of those patterned ones so I applied the sealer with a soft broom, making sure that I got the sealer into all the cracks and crevices.
    Have to apply a second coat which I will probably do tomorrow, as I don't start work until 1pm.

    That's it from me, how is everybody else doing????????????????
    Oh, nearly forgot, Mrs Aus accidently backed into a post in a carpark and put a small dent in the rear left corner of the Freelander near the tail light. Did not damage the taillight (phew!!). Poor lady ,she was so upset, she was almost in tears when I got home from work. I told her not to worry, it can be fixed.

    I touched the damaged area up, so it doesn't look so bad and went and got a quote to fix it........$500!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it!!!!!!!!!

    She was looking very sad and the guy who wanted her is going to fix her up

    And her chassis is a bit rotten

    On the other hand I picked up a Series 2a wagon the other week so I still have 15

I don't use it to go to work as the Bus Depot is only a ten minute walk away. That's just my wife using it for things that women do!!!
    That is what I get in the D2 driving quickly towing the camper trailer. Other times always better than 11.5 - even around Darwin in peak hour traffic (well Darwin's version ).

    Last fortnight has been busy and last week spent Monday in Sydney and Tues & Wed in Melbourne. Waved to you Sleepy but didn't see you even tho I was in Mexico.
