I'm here. The boss has had me over in Geelong at the apartment with Garrett (Justbetter) organising the new bathroom and kitchen.. 
Still about. Just a little quite as I've been busy at work also.

I heard that too Todd.....but, the ole silver fox was actually making out an order to export some of his beef patties.....You know, the ones in the Big Macks.
I heard he did a pet food deal with that Pet Mart store behind him in the above pic.

Hell, I see you found the photo of my Managers' cars that were parked outside the restaurant. Each of my Managers were able to select a car of their choice.
Guess they all have good taste....

Shorts and tennis shoes - ok rub it in
Kristen,
The car is a Nissan EsCargo van. They were made for the Japanese delivery market. There are not a lot of them in Australia. EsCargo is a play on the French word for snail!!!
They are powered by a 1600 Nissan motor and have a 3 speed auto behind them. I have driven it over to Melbourne for a promotional day (500) and it drove comfortably at 120km/h (65 - 70mph).
We do not do deliveries in it. It's basically parked all around town as a mobile billboard. We often do 'Find the MCVAN' segments on radio where people ring in and tell the announcer where the MCVAN is parked. They win all types of vouchers and other give aways.
It is very populaer with kids and I often use it in parades, school fetes, markets, etc.
The store in on a roundabout with three major highways meeting right at the front. Our sales volumn would not allow time or the ability to deliver. This is good!!!
WE have a lot of big buses/coaches parking nearby. Additionally we are popular with the truck guys. So I need to make sure I do not leave it about, as it will be run over..
Cold and wet here at 14c (58f). Guess it is the middle of winter. Sounds like great weather there - rub it in eh.. out driving in the sun I guess...

You drive THAT at 120Kph.?
Gawd, looks like if you hit the skids hard it would roll end for end down the road.

It's 11.30pm here on Monday. Freezing cold, wind and rain. They wonder why I'm not worried about the Cobra being finished.
I think I will make a top for it in the next few weeks.

May and try and get over to SA to look at the BDR projects
Tony,
Thanks mate. Enjoyed it, every bit of it. Route 66 from California through to Ohio. Great. GT40 was great to drive also.
Sorry cannot make the 'Run N Gun' this year as it's Anne's birthday - a milestone one. So a big party here.
Hershal is going to the Knotts event in April - know it months away, but do you head to the States for that one?
If not - I may get over with Robert when he heads across next to check his GT40 projects out in Sth. Af.
Aaah rugby..
Will PM
Bernie
