Na Just want to get the disco done & finished now.. Found brought & paid for a ARB bullbar in Melbourne today so that be here early next week . . Found snorkel.. The guy we want to buy the mags off on ebay hasnt or wont get back to me so his loss as we have found a set of the DISCO boost rims . Just hoping he will post freight them to me.. Also found a roof rack its a full length basket type & they will freight it to me .. Also found a winch so will probably get that aswell.Duel battery aswell .. Some driving lights. also found some great side awnings for under $200. I still have to replace the 2 rubbers under the brake fluid resivor & i'm going to replace all the brake pads & flush & bleed the whole braking system.
Then it will be done but the brakes are a 2 person job..

Other then that were all pretty good .

Feel like crap today so I think I mite just have one of those day doing bugga all. Also all the suspension is in the disco , Must say its easier to do then the leaf springs on the series.. Although I need to buy those rear spring retainers that hold the springs in on the bottom of the rears as there was none on there..

Well I brought a 12000 lbs winch for the bulbar for the disco yesdy..We are trying to get everything for the disco as we wont be able to get it done otherwise. Well we could but it will take years & years & we want to use it & get out & about.. Its time we look after ourselves now , the kids are grown & moving on so we can do some things .. We got a small personal loan to finish off the disco that way we can spend the summer sorting out any bugs & it will be ready to go away once the wether cools down.. Will probably go away threw summer but probably just overnighters as I have trouble in the heat .. But will see how things go.. I want to get back upto Samari beach camping & fishing .. I like camping up there but at the south end at the rocks between Samari & one mile beach.. did a lot of that as a kid..

Went to the shaft Tavern today to celebrate Mrs Aus's 21 st (ahem) a few of the family came also. We had a good time and a bit of a gos.

Happy birthday Mrs Aus.. OH & happy birthday Jim cause ive probably missed it..

Don't worry I always forget the kids birthday till the day before when Karen tells me its there birthday tomorrow .


Hey Jim do they still have the topless barmaids there,.. they used to make it worthwhile going there. Oh & the two up.. Used to be a lot of blues over there

I'm not a regular at the Shaft Tavern. I haven't heard of anything about topless barmaids. Sounds like something that happened years ago.

how was the rest of your weekend with the grandkids, and a late happy birthday to mrs Aus
