No, I died last Tuesday

It is quiet here hey.

How are you mate, you now, with life and that?hope all is ok.

Beers in the next few weeks sounds good.

On a different note sold my Ford on the weekend for only $200 less than I paid for it 10 months ago.

Got a 2000 E39 528 Sport in its place and it really is rather lovely. Kinda get the whole E39 thing.

We've had our ups and downs since we last spoke mate, but we're getting on OK.

Just bailed on a camping trip: Got out there only for the child to go absolutely spastic and refuse to allow us any rest or sleep for 24 hours, then it started raining so we gave it up as a bad job and came back home for some R&R!
Sorry to hear it mate - let me know if you want to meet during the day dring the week to catch up.

Bloody kids hey laugh

Yep kids can be a pain, thank god I don't have any at home these days.

In fact I am now starting to get my own back on my kids. evil

A change of jobs means son in law, [eldest daughter] will have to give his company car back. Daughter came out today to borrow a car for a while.

Grandson, 6, was disappointed to find she would not be getting the Honda S2000, which he loves riding in top down. He accepted that they needed more than 2 seats for mum, him & sister 9, so it would have to be the Oz Ford Capri.

He grumbled a bit that now he would not get any topless motoring. You should have seen the death stare from daughter when I told him the Capri was a convertible too. She drove off top down with the kids shouting & waving from the back seat.

I am in the bad books. The kids are still hyper & resisting going to bed, after their 40Km topless drive in the country. biglaugh

Just a bit wary of topics with such titles, after recent changes in certain powers to those who already have too much... wink

Anyway, currently too busy being Dad, trying to maintain mtb fitness and drumming up work for a new business. And now its summer, so there goes the next six months biggrin

Still about.

Just got my divorce financial settlement through. Just putting the divorce paperwork in.

Hibernating, waiting for summer and trying to get rid of this cold.

I'm still around, just about over the "returning to Perth from England" blues... and moving on from being dumped as soon as we got back.

Not spending much time on PH these days, my online time is on Perth Street Bikes and RSVP/ POF rofl

Love perth street bikes.

Finally sold the Falcon and am trying to work out what to spend the money on.

It isn't a lot of money so will need topped up, and since I've put SWMBO on notice for overspending and threatened no UK holiday next year, I need to be a little careful about how I go about acquiring something else.

Plus she wants a front fence which given it is 20 metres long with 2 gates won't be cheap. I could DIY but I suspect she won't like it taking 3 months and not being straight smile

In summer I tend to ride early mornings and at night. Are you on PSB? I've been on about 4 years.

Did you get accommodation sorted? I'm looking to rent out a room or 2 here

Stop giving me ideas biggrin

Got $4,500 for the Falcon which I was happy with given it needed a new rear bumper and the driver's door had some dents (new skin required according to the bodyshop).

Am tempted to spend up to $10k on a ute of some sort. Should probably fix my old Merc first though smile

I'm alive and it's happy days here. Today's photo is:



Soon to be returned better than ever. I fancy a run to Newcastle but the only folk I know from there are bogans. Anyone got any ideas?

Matt, happy to return the favour.

Currently boozing in the Rocks after a Manly ferry jaunt. Happy, happy extra long weekend days.
