A very shiny silver Cruiser . Even had an EO tyre cover .

Phew ! Now I can finally stop looking .

I thought I might have been the only member and all these posts were written by Michelle and David who live with Elvis in Hollywood where they made the moon landing footage .

Al, if he had looked he woulda seen one outside his place earlier in the year.

I have been to Padstow too, little place on the Norhtern coast of Cornwall. Rick Stein just about owns the place

John ,

Do you have a Nokia 6120 and a Nokia car kit . A few people gave me advice on a post last week , but I seem to remember you had one .

If you have , I am in trouble trying to get the phone to work in the cradle . It worked previously , but the phone battery died and now it has lost the "instructions" to communicate with the cradle .

It is hard wired through to the radio , it was not a bluetooth connection .

There is somewhere in the phone where you go and put in a code of 0000 I think , but I cannot figure out where .

Thanks ,

Willie .

Al, I don't think Willie's figeur fits the bill for much time visiting Krispy Kremes. I am trimming mine to suit better too.

Willie, I hadn't heard of EO when I went there in 2000 so wouldn't have noticed the stickers. My dear Heather told me when we wre nearly at Padstow that there was apparently a good restaurant there. She knows I love sea food and when she told me it was just called "The Seafood Restarant" she had me hooked. I won't say how much your meal cost, nor ours either, though we have the menu. Rick is still one of my favourite 'personalities'.

Mate, I had a 6230i which worked well in the little car with a plug in system but now we have both got Next G phones, neither fit. Heather a N95 Nokia and I have an HTC Dual 850 which I love also as a PDA. Hope to get them connected through Bluetooth soon though they probably won't have external antennas, unless we go to the inductive types. The N95 has a blue tick and gets through most places. I just move to a slightly better place if I need. Email is easy with it. Some people compare it with the applephone.

Gramps, Des Lexic talks about Willem as the donut muncher. Is there a parallel apart from metal detecting?

LOL.......You need to come a bit further Willie there's a few wheel covers over here in the Shire.

There's me, Sam and another one who seems to frequent Caringbah/Cronulla all on White GU's. Then there's another one on a beige GU from Engadine forgotten his name now, but i don't think he comes on here anymore...

I saw a white GU in Big Ears Parade with a wheel cover one day, think it was near a shop somewhere near the Eastern end. A white 80 too with a sticker the same day in Caringbah.

Last conversation we had actually was at Innamincka, Wayne, four years ago. Yes, you had said you were in Big Ears earlier this year. We were being acquainted with the area by Navigator 1, the owner of the 80 mentioned above!

Hi Willie.

The only sticker I have seen up this way was on Sir Kevs truck when he called in for a cupper.

Cheers.

Not quite Padstow but not far away.

I have seen a white Prado with a wheel cover outside Peakhurst West School a few times and a white GU with a wheel cover in Roberts Ave Mortdale just up the hill from the Maso's club.

Then mine gets around that part of the world too these days.

Gees Richard ,

That's different . I'm talking about driving along the road and spotting a 4WD with a sticker .

Some of those Triple Diamond trips look very tempting .
