Well Dad, me, had to stay
home for the Board meeting this afternoon and to play football tomorrow and to watch Aust qualify for the World Cup next year on Sunday night so unfortunately I could not go with the family to The Dreaming festival thing at
Woodford.
My wife, who drives the Yota echo during the day while I ride the bicycle to work, told me last night "I have to take the wagon, the pram and the new tent won't fit with the bags in the boot of the echo". I kind of stood their wide eyed trying to falsify a look of fear and horror, she taking my toy .... no she has never really taken an interest in driving it afer I sold the prado.
Anyhow, to keep the marriage alive we must let go of these things and we went for a
test drive that night that put the kids to sleep and she gained enough confidence to take it on her own with grandma in the passenger
seat.
They go, I go to work.
That night I get the call, "Babe, you would never believe, we missed the turnoff and ended up on a forestry track, the Echo would never have made it out of the wheel ruts, Grandma I think weed her pants, I had a ball, the girls loved it, the truck was great, we bounced through everything"
What have I created ..... ?

Uh - as if you had to ask that question. But since you asked: Offroadzilla! :)
Now, let us know how many tree stumps you had to forcibly remove from underneath the car. :)

Pleasure shared is pleasure doubled.
A flat shared is trouble halved ;-}
