I am sitting on the couch at Mums house, listening to thunder and rain and watching the lightening.

Picked up mates car trailer ready to load up tonight only to be cut off on a roundabout coming home and slid into gutter snapping both hubs on one side of trailer. Mad rush to hire another trailer for the weekend which did happen so all good. Hope it's not a sign of things to come. Looking forward to catching up with everyone.
Cheers

Sure will Dave, air con, cruise control, stereo going in the Spanish wanker.
We'll catch up with you probably by half way up the hill at Gundagai!

Drive safe Dave, see you up there.

Crap it is cold in Goulburn.
I just rang the Mrs's at home, she has the air con on.

I had to wear my beanie for most of the trip in my old Val, no bloody heater.

Looking forward to a scotch (too cold for beer) with mates tonight.
