G'day, could anyone give me a lift to Birdsville in next 3 weeks?
I'd like to get there by mid August,
I can share the fuel expenses.

Thanks
Michael

Nudie is always on holidays. Probably sitting back with the A/C unit on, feet up pretending to do business. You would almost think he is a Public Servant.
At least Nudie had the sense to buy his wife a brand new cruiser while you were away. You could do the same and show M how much you appreciate her and buy her a cruiser also.

Common Bonz, you know MN1 doesn't work! He enjoys a life of luxury while the missus is slaving at the salt mine.

Kind regards

Well Des with 2 great minds coming to the same (similar) conclusion it must be a matter of fact. Just take it easy on PS's will you they are pretty smart and buy their other halves NISSANs to show them they really care.

Geez Beautit, you wouldn't be a PS would you. You're leaving yourself wide open for a hard time on here. Public Servants only buy top shelf quality products. That's why they buy Toyota's.

M is perfectly happy with her Patrol, knowing what MN1 says about his better half (e.g. My wife's an angel, ...You're lucky, mines still alive!) I can see why he bought her a cruiser. Poor lady.

Bonz, 8 weeks...who the hell do you work for...can i get a job there too?...if i get a week I'm lucky

Des, swmbo certainly did not get the new cruiser...hahaha...she's after a Merc or beema....after her trip to italy......:((( ..definitely cant afford holidays...and a public servant can afford to send his wife on a 6 week trip to Italy??? if so which department is that...the same you work for...can I have a job too???

a Beatit...it is I who works in the salt mine...12 hrs per day (24hrs on week ends) 7 days per week 52 weeks per year...and only get paid a dunny cleaners wage.....(and no smart ass comments pls!) ..and thats after my 12 hours at my normal day time job

"Public Servants only buy top shelf quality products. That's why they buy Toyota's"

When I worked for the BANK I use to delight in PS jokes etc but now that I'm here I say the joke was on me. I'd also say we need a committee to decide the Toyo/Nissan issue but only after a long period of public cosultation which will be ignored like MN1 because there has to be unreasonable bias in his response. We need more dams not toyotas!

Hi Guys,

I see you have a lot of fun...
I live in Sydney, but it's no problem for me to get to the bigger towns in SA, VIC, NSW or South QLD - anywhere where bitumen roads leads, as simple it is.

hear you soon
