Not much better up here in Currambine. Come on Summer! Although we need the rain (minus the wind).

Your not wrong with the wind, I think it is the coldest that it has been all winter, it is up here in the hills anyway.
Ah but the North is calling, leaving on Sunday for a while.

Rick, very off topic but I've seen two or three tippers go over, but never from the wind. Always because the driver got slack and couldn't be bothered making sure all was level, and one cos a bloody great
rock jammed between the hoist
well and body and over she went. ALL of 'em were 8 wheelers and bludy lucky never happened to me !!!!
I saw an old inter 6 wheel tipper rusting away in a padock, when I nosied up for a bo peep I saw that the bolts had snapped at the bottom of the hoist and the hoist went straight thru the cab, taking the guts of the cab out with it. Poor driver must have chit himself big time. It scared me just thinkin about it.

Doug you prick,
