Hello everyone. Long time no chat. I thought I'd jump on and let everyone know that I'm still alive and still into Mini's. Since being on a few years ago, I have recovered from the accident, discharged from the RAAF, bought a farm near Coonabarabran NSW, sold that, bought another one and finally settled down a bit. I have moved several times since way back then but have carted my Mini's and parts every where I've gone. The old grey van has not been running for several years now but I have finally got the Deluxe shell in to a very good restoration guy at Coolah who has been doing a magnificent job. Hopefully I'll be around a bit more now.

Even worse if you have to deal with DVA or Comsuper.

Maybe just claim to be a Muslim immigrant. Treated by the Govt. much better than veterans or pensioners.

Welcome back Ziff...Coona is a long way from where you were...do you have some sort of previous history or family connection with the area?

No answer required...just making conversation :lol: :D

No family ties out here. We just found a farm that we liked the look of and the area seemed nice. It,s pretty dry at the moment though.

What mustering? I was MTFITT/GSEFITT before they broke me and booted me out.
