Hello Everyone,
Well......I haven't had this much feedback since the BushMechanics Series.
Some of you were sympathetic, some of you had your own tales to tell and some of you where Righteous. I particularly liked the one that diseminated my whole post and gave an itemised interpretation for it.
Hey, it was only an opinion written as part of a tale. But thanks for all the responses.
To the bloke who asked...I am 190cm, 110kg with a shaved cranium and a bushy beard. I have a naturally friendly disposition but I don't take any crap from anyone and do not suffer fools. I say my piece if required and if I think it is necessary. I have a good amount of 4x4 and bush experience to share with you if you care to read.
A very Merry Christmas to you all and take care and keep safe.
Cheers,
Willem

That wasn't feedback that you generated Willem, that was just criticism. But what do you expect when you put up a post that reveals you as an egocentric, immature individual. Children under 12 are very egocentric - they think they are the centre of the world and everything revolves around them. Gradually they develop the ability to see things from viewpoints other than their own and realise that they are not always right. Some people don't pass the egocentric stage of development.
I don't believe you could fit in that Nissan if you're 190cm. I had one of those in 1978 (glad to say I've moved with the times) and the driving position was very cramped. Though maybe your legs are short ...

Martin,
You are quite correct.
Either you follow me or you stay at home.
So you also owned a G60 once...this means we have something in common...birds of a feather.

I wouldn't be too concerned Willem..... after all the good advice and good banter you've served up here since I've been visiting, I guess it's kinda inevitable that sooner or later you would post something that not everyone agreed with. (I was one who didn't, but doesn't mean I don't think highly of you... just didn't agree with your post is all!) I did think however some of the posts got a little personal, but that's the way it can be with some people.
Anyways Willem, from us here in the Great South East of Queensland, a very happy, healthy and safe Christmas for you and yours!!.... and looking for forward to a great 2004!!
Cheers

Willem,
isn't it excellent? One post and you can be psychoanalysed, have your Tarot cards read, even your physiognomy assessed - all for free.
I suspect that some of the more personal responses, and the persisting antipathy (above) suggest a 'uniformed' presence.
Happy festive season to all.

I think it's great your out there "Twisting the Dragons Tail", the more time the constabulary spend with you looking for $$$$$$$$$ for you to donate to the state coffers the less time they'll be looking at me.
I know I'm chicken bleep , but fat old grumpy bleep s like me prefer to buy some more lolly
water than donate to Pollies retirement funds.
Keep up the good work.

any how i agree Willem, they the constabulary do go overboard some times and they should expect some

Hey Willem, keep those posts comming, they are interesting to say the least. I have benefited from some of your ideas and had the odd chuckle over some of your wisdom...always a good read and thought provoking! It's amazing what you can flush out with a simple post and it reminds me of some of the good folk I mixed with at White Dam a long time ago. Have you ever been there?? We had a shack a couple down from Bill's Pub until earlier this year. Cheers for now.Butcher Country Track

Hi Willem. White Dam is a few k's out of
Andamooka just on the edge of Lake Torrens. It's renowned for its opals. Bill's pub was exactly that. Bill arrived there about 1966 and put his new HD (no less than an X2 at that) on blocks and it never moved for 20 years. He was such an avid supporter of the RFDS that he ran raffles and sold RFDS souvenirs etc to help their cause. Every visitor received a complimentary glass of port (plonk!) and a large measure of Bill's personality. I suspect the fortfied wines he served did little to aid his longevity but it sure helped loosen his perspectives on life. Many people bought all sorts of signage to his "pub" and it evolved from there. Before his passing he was something of a local and, for that matter, international celebrity. His grave site in
Andamooka is a work of art reflecting his "essence" and is worthy of a visit. He could pull the tourist crowds and thus the sponsorship for the RFDS. In those early days it was almost a full days drive to
Andamooka via the station and now it is done before morning tea via Roxby. His old establishment still stands and is maintained by a group of community minded locals.
Cheers and Merry ChristmasButcher Country Track
