you can keep the sheep in your bed its ok.
just cos i live here it doesnt mean im a kiwi or like sheep its worse than that i support the springboks in sport so its even worse than you thought.
Thanks for the bed and ill see if the offer is still there once i get my ducks in a row and sort out when ill be making the trip to a warmer climate.

Gadgets - I am so there it aint funny. Mick can drive the recovery commodore...lol.

Mittagong sounds feasible too Ausminis4u - certainly the more the better(safety in numbers!!). If not right in, on the highway...

Let us know when and i will get the mini sparkling and do the thing!

its actaully funny cos we call sandles plakkies(not jandles thongs or flip flops), its a case of beer not a slab ( not that you can get 24 packs easily here) , its a cooler box (not a chilly bin) and whould have no idea what sheep shaggin is about as we have boks 9antelope) and they run too fast to shag so we stick with the females as they are easier game if you put on a foriegn accent.ay

only slightly warmer .... oh thats right it would be like a kiwi summer here now .... and yeah i read ya bio after typing that bugga huh ...... hmmmm so yer of sarf arfrican decent .......

Would love to attend this dyno day at GR's, won't be able to make it.

I can report however have just sorted my new race motor with one of GR's new race grind camshafts with amazing results!! An increase of approx 15% more power over my last engine which was no slouch BTW. Damn awesome, new engine makes more power @ 6000 than old one @ 7000 + 7500! GR told me it would make more power and torque, surely does.

Enjoy the dyno day, be keen to hear the reports, he said the Elder head is gooood.

This is one Dyno Day that I don't want to miss, sounds good. I might bring the video camera, still cameras just don't do Dyno Days justice.
