hahaha... actually... if he so pleases would you ask him to cast a wary yet jaundiced eyesocket over the yellow Mazda E2700 while hes at it??

I wandered up to Golden Bay on Friday and had a gander at a Bedford the wally wanted 35K for which I wouldnt have offered him 1K for... what a bucket of utter shyte!! so then I wandered up to Harvey yesty morning to have a gander at a Hino bus up there but it had disappeared so I turned around and flogged off down to Albany where there was a Hino as well... mmm interesting old thing... nothing inside was bolted or screwed down the steering had an "interesting" sound effect when you moved the wheel the auto gearbox had an "incredibly" musical discharge when attempting to put it into any gear other than Nuetral... oh but the motor ran sweetly if a little puff puff side but at 70K I walked away

I'll wander down to Capel tomorrow and have a gander at a 25ft van and if need be I'll upgrade the Prado on a full size toy and that should do the trick... driving me knuts what people think these things are "worth" over here!! peices of crap that should never be on the road for 35 - 70K???

Anyway that would be a treat thanks Wendy!! See I TOLD YOU your ol man wasnt bad... for a genetically modified mechanical drone!!

Kerry the more this goes on the more that bloody big yacht in Darwin appeals!! But brother what a major learning curve for both me an Josh that will be!!!

Hey Ramps hows it goin young fella? Hows the missus and nippers? All good healthy and full of grins and cheek I hope!

Yeah all's well here for all and sundry
If you are crusing on the w/e down argyle way and feel like dropping in on "the project" give us a yell. do you still have my mobile # if not pm me and I will get it to you. Saturday Morn isn't good but any other time ... but hey no pressure. We'd love hear of your travels.

I'd love to be hitting the rd again ... might have to wait for a couple more years for us ... got a house to build in the mean time

Cheers mate

Thanks Wendy

BUT!!

I wandered up to Broome the other week and had pretty much decided that a roadtrip to Tooowwooomba would be the go so had settled in for a nice holiday with my youngest son my brother and younger sis and her boy and his family when I spotted this park home setup for sale... mmm fair price for Broome... in other words less than 100K... went and had a gander a good chat to the sheila selling it then wandered up to see the park owner and have a yarn... soooo I wander back and ask her what her lowest price was and she gives it so I say I'll give you a hoi in an hour or so to let you know... no probs says she

A few hours later I rang her back made an offer that was near on 20K less than her lowest price she comes back quick as a flash with a counter offer just 3k over what I offered and WHAM I OWN A PARK HOME IN BROOME!!!


Whahooooooo!!! Gotta love it

So again thanks people!
Shane


oooh and I traded the Prado in as well.. thinking I would need something with a bit of grunt if I ended up getting a bloody great caravan I traded her up on a nice full blown GXL whacketty dak Landcruiser!! ooooh the comfort... oooh the space... ooooh the luxury... ooh geez Im spoilt this breakup should have happened years ago!!! LIFE IS GOOD!!!

Photos!!!!!! I wanna photo

Congrats Shane!!

cheers
Wendy

PS the ones here in Toowoomba were pretty much no goers anyway....

And you thought it was difficult sourcing machinery in Brunswick! Boy are you in for a surprise .

And how big is the shed

I'll be there tomorrow

Cheers

Anyone heard anything from Shane since 14 August?

Glad someone else is little concerned...
Ditto
However there's been NO major earth moving disturbances or climatic phenomena’s in our NW.... so guessing he's still OK....

Must admit little worried he'll want to pick up that parkhome & put it on a barge .... or tow it south when the rain up there hits....

Shivers ....'Dingo with a private ARK...' could you imagine that!
I'm hoping he's got the scent of something little more refined... a blonde beach babe perhaps.... 'cause darn sure there's not much WOOD up there.... just worried about the size of the machinery he's now going to be amongst... everything up north is huge...
Can you just picture his stories now!!!!! WOW ....
Broome is probably in shock!

Yes... please if anyone hears let us all know.... little worried he didn't call in for his goodbye cuppa....
Miss the devil....
Guess we're all too fond of the bugger!
EARTH CALLING SHANE ????
COME IN SHANE ????

I see from his profile that Shane (or someone using his user id and password) did check in to look at the Forums on 31 August.
