hi, as per a request here's a new thread for people who are going along to the LD for the weekend to list what vehicle they're in so people will recognise them.
I think most members will probably have some sort of EO sticker on their vehicle but if not, if you could list what you'll be in for the benefit of other's that would be great.
We're in a landcruiser 100 TD - Pewter colour, it's pretty dusty at the moment and not sure if it'll get a wash by the weekend - someones' been driving along dirt roads, I wonder who :))

I am hoping to get to Dimboola around 2pm Friday and set up in the CP before heading out to
Horseshoe Bend to "take up space" and have a couple of cold ones. Channel 10 UHF will be on. Rig
pic tells the story, but I will also have the roof rack on, awnings open as
well as the wheel carrier with the EO cover.
Don't be shy...see you all in 3 sleeps.
Just Do It!

Andrew, I have done an archive
search on all your posts and follow ups where you have had cause to malign your wife. I hope I have time to print them all off so that I can present them to her at the LD.
Unless you would like to make a sizeable cash donation to my bank account of course.
Did I hear you supporting your son's opposition cricket team last weekend just so you could go to the LD.
Not a good fatherly image.
PS we can all tread freely now and not feel threatened as Willem is now on his way to the LD and hopefully he left his grumpy pills at home. LOLI'd rather have my bum on a beach in

Mr Des
I do not have your bank account details but would be happy to make a contribution. Carrying that much paper would be risky for your
suspension. You are a wonderful human being and the only person more lovely is Jen - hopefully you will not have the chance to meet her...
Do you like my daugther's photo? Thought I might take the opportunity to show her off for a few days while people are
on the road.

Andrew, I have just discovered a serious flaw in your personality.
Everytime you get within a couple of days of meeting someone you turn to Jelly and try to be nice to them. I can see through your charade. The lost quality of the photo showing your daughter would not reveal her true beauty, inside and out.
I hope she takes after her mother and not her father.
Willem is on his way with a neatly trimmed beard and freshly shaven head. He called for advise to replenish his food stocks and was in good humour.

forum. I bet you won't find my other serious flaws so easy to discover.... I am going to keep them all well hidden. haha.
I might bring some bees wax as a peace offering to Willem and we can polish his cranium one night.

As for Jen keeping me under control - too true. Wait till everyone sees her hands - the thumbs are enormous and I have trouble getting out from under them.......
