Music while travelling

That's why you need an mp3 player with solid drive. No vibration worries at all and you can carry vast collections of music, or drama, or podcasts.

If you get the larger capacity mp3 player, they have a hard drive and need a bit more care. I've used one for a while and have around 300 albums on in. One button gives you a random album, but play lists (that you create first on your PC) are the answer. Several of my playlists will give continues music for nearly a week. You can create ones for different moods (popular, folk, 60's, 80's, jazz, classical, big bands etc. The trick with a hard drive type is to pad the unit in something like a neoprene pouch or stubby holder to insulate it from shock and vibrations. Cheers....

Yep, gotta agree with that....especially when it's a 6.5 V8 diesel accompanied by the constant hum of of a set of Mickey T's MTZs..... music to my ears.

On the other hand I also have a ipod with about 300 songs on it that plays through the FM radio....that's good too... at times

The sound of the Maxxis Bighorns does it too when I can't get ABC news radio to listen too, though we have a wide range of music as distinct to songs on CDs. Not into the ipod generation yet but thta may change if/when we change the in-dash mapping

goodonya! you couldnt even go 10 days without hearing from me ya nutter!!
country tops the lot but this one is just divine!
guess what...I even had Sunday arvo out at the winery (encouraged by the lecturers to go too!!) and had friday and Sat night at the armidale club (muso club)......even had "truckers on ice" play....

I love it when uini gets to the performance section! its nothing other than playing and going to concerts!!LOL!!

It's OK Miss Jo is trying to knock you off the mantle with slanging matches with me LOL

KEV
it would be neck & neck at the moment wouldn't you say.
that JO sure is a fiery one!!!

Mark,

They may be neck and neck but I'm still on top (literally) LOL

Kev can only handle being on top! doesnt like being dominated!! (cheeky!! ;o)

KEV
the king of the castle eh? i suspect that might change b4 st george.

youll need eyes in the back of your head with those 2, you wont wanna shut your eyes to sleep.

He will need to watch out thats for sure! There are already plans in place for "something" seeing that I was too lazt this yr! (thanks to morning sickness!)
He wont be king of his little castle anymore thats for sure!!

KEV

me thinks you need to rethink your stratagy here. 2 against 1 will be hard to keep up with kev, the way i see it your gunna need some back up and fast.

Mark,

Do you want to join me as a Knight of the ExplorOz Table LOL

I'll get Jester Hairs and Greendog along for some light entertainment hehehe

KEV

im in enough bleep with JO already..............im laying low for a while,he he.

Mark,

Back Up???

I drive a Landcruiser where as these 2 drive Missan Poooootrols LOL

car doesnt count Kev....we are females...you know the ones....the ones not to be messed with!!

You both have to get to St George first LOL

It took you long enough to get to Innamincka remember ;)

KEV
just remember if you win this battle..........IM ON YOUR SIDE!!!! lol

It is not a case of "IF" but "WHEN" hahahahaha

KEV

Im thinkin' that i'd like to believe you

I understand that you being a cockroach would doubt a Queenslander but when your on a good thing stick to it LOL

KEV

just covering my arse!!!!

Kev, I reckon you had better tread carefully. I haven't met either of these ladies in person, but they seem to be both like a fox terrier with a bone, shake the beejeesus out it & wont let go till they have the last word. Do they both have teeth like George Bush's offsider, Condelesa Rice?

ah ha...........ggggrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

Barry,

If Jo is anything like Kiwi, Then she will be putty in anyones hands LOL

Their bark is definately worse than their bite, but I don't think Mark is game enough to try haha

KEV

oh i try'd..............but i learnt very early lol.

If they have teeth like Condelesa, I think I'll settle for the bark as I reckon the bite would be painfull. Anyway, how can two of the petty coat govt. brigade be worth this much discussion? LOL

thats it..............im outta here b4 they come back!!!!

There is nothing wrong with a bit of skirt (thanks Fawlty)

MarYou running scared already, the gathering is 12 months away haha

Come to think of it, I still reckon it's a bit like Clark Kent & Superman, they both sound & carry on like one & the same person, so I'am still a bit sus.

Kev what are you dragging me in to,cause this is not looking good.cheer's GREENDOG

Jester Greendog,

You insisted to be included in the fray so welcome to it LOL

Barry,

I will introduce you to them both in St George next year LOL

Kev
Just remember their female their got long memories

I'm Screwed

Mark,

Calling Jo and Kiwi Elephants will get you nowhere, Your no supposed to mention their weight LOL

Jester Greendog,

Yep LOL

Hey Daza...we're the same...all the Aussie stuff gets the load volume! Although I did manage to trash Sara Storer cd along with 3 kids ones...where they stop working or get stuck is where the really bad corrigation was!!LOL!!

hahahahahahahahaha

Nothing like talking to B-triples and above on Ch40 whilst having "The 12 Days of Christmas" blaring away in the background. LOL

Andrew

Ohhhh .... thats just sad ......

pmsl tho

meant to add:

Both country and South American have a strong beat - good for the 'long straight road'. (Which song does that come from, anyone?)

ahhhhh. "Lights on the Hill".......

Kinda reminds me that I'd love to have an air starter on the Patrol one of these days!!!!! hahaha

I wish I was that good...na...a friend is for his performance in a few weeks, should be good I reckon!
Im wanting the music so I can put it on the piano!

OT, But what is the Single mans quarters and health clinic like in Yarralin now??

I built them in 2001 when in the Army and haven't been back, we left 4 weeks after the twin towers was flattened.

Cheers Kev

Kev


Just got back from Timber Creek yesterday afternoon.

The health clinic is at the moment having renovations and they have extended the clinic with new rooms at the rear. They have a staff of 4 plus a visiting doctor.

As you would know it is beautiful country. The drive through Jasper Gorge between Timber Creek and Yarralin is worth doing.


Tjilpi

Yeah I know,
We did about 7 houses at Lingara as well, we had our bar set up at VRD homestead.

I'll get around to visiting the area again soon, maybe on the way to the 2010 National Gathering ;)

Cheers Kev

Hi Nev.
Now that is real music !!!!!!

My war office enjoys Damian Leith LOL.
Cheers.
Vince

Hey Willem

Not a lot to scratch off your list to make it happy listening in my rig ....

Only Ravi Shankar .... PMSL ...... maybe Farnham / Yothu Yindi and some of the other alphabet soup ones ... lolol

Could add .... RedGum, Alabama, Cold Chisel, Confederate Railroad and Graeme Connors in there ....

Jeff Healy and Stevie Ray Vaughan would also go well in the Blues / R&B section of your centre console.

Cheers

I only have Ravi Shankar on there to annoy certain people when travelling...in particular my mate George (NT)....LOL

Yeah, I must get some others on to the music stick.


Cheers
