Yes it's true people, I visited him (Member Dave Adelaide) yesterday and he was telling me that when he gets back from the Cape later this year he wants to sell his beloved Patrol ute and buy something a bit smaller. Something like a Prado. The Nissan Pathfinder was mentioned but then started talking about the D4D Hilux, how he drove one and liked it.

How can this be?? Are we soon loosing another Nissan owner??

Whats this world coming to?

G'day Pete

It has dropped to 15° now with a cool breeze helping things along. Will take the house a few days to cool down though.

We can venture outside again!

Cheers

The great thing with stone houses is they take a long time to heat up, and vice versa hadf a concrete block place once that was similar.
Glad things are bearable again, its cool over here this morning also.

He has obviously seen the light and he has enough common sense to sell it before it does the exploding trick.
You need to give the old bloke credit for the wisdom that he has gained from the days when you were a teenager when he didn't know a dam thing.

Des,

I hope you noticed he DID say that nothing would occur until AFTER the Cape trip later in the year.

Obviously he is only too well aware that to do THAT trip, he needs to retain the Nissan........

Secondly, I'm sure Luke will do his duty and start giving his ol' man some medication in an effort to bring him to his senses before he commits this dastedly deed. Strewth, what next?????
