Thanks Guy's'

Yes another year goes by, another wrinkle added, and more hair in some spots and less in others. Only 37, but over the last few months have felt like 137, getting better though.

And yes I have a new toy. A 2007 CRD 3L auto Patrol wagon ST. We believe it is the first in OZ with hand controls fitted. Took the guy a day and a half, but he got it done. Couldn't get a new 100series cruiser fitted with controls.

It came with a winch bar, IPF spotties, tow bar, dual position cargo barrier, rhino racks and basket, bonnet protector, and all the usual bits. Already added a 12500lb winch, 2" tough dog suspension kit(works really well too), fitted my own dual battery system and tinted windows.
Still have to install my rear _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx that I built for the Terracan.

There is still some stuff I would like, but that is going to be a while off. (Vanessa's orders!!! I have been lucky to get the gear I have got, so I will have to be really nice for a while and obey her orders,lol)

Maaaaaate, I did'nt know you were a Saint. You'd have to be exceptionally good to get all that lot. You'll have to let us in on some of your secrets hahahahaha

Gramps,

Saint!!! Never....Just annoyed her enough and said that these things are needed for safety when travelling alone. It worked for a while.
Plus now we have the winch, it is useless unless you have the gear required to be able to use it correctly (and safely)!!!!.

I won't be pushing my luck any more, well at least for a while anyway. hehe
