Event Coverage Australia Trip with Pics!

Oh, and I tried the vegemite on toast yesterday morning at breakfast. Not sure I will try it again…

 

When we were Down Under for a few days a couple of years ago, I was looking around for swampy lands of lakes, streams and rivers. That's because every pickup in the towns we were in was lifted with big tires and a snorkel up the side ending just over the cab. The windows must seal real well down there, too.

 

Lol. Fosters is so bad that we export it all... even we won't drink it

Cheers,

That's because the only dirt these have seen is inbetween the cracks on the pavement in their driveway.

 

........ and the Bundy Rum. He'll need to be careful of that......

We send all that shit over to you guys and Great Britain.

.... pussy......

 

They use them to cross rivers in the outback. [usually towing a trailer]

 

Definitely needs to try Bundy Rum. Mothers milk Shame the Denny Ute Muster is not on when he is here.

They go offroad... when parked on the nature strip

Cheers,
Harv

 

"That's because the only dirt these have seen is in between the cracks on the pavement in their driveway."

I think you had the majority of them with their sparkling liveries.
(We've got posers, too.)

 

hate to be I told you ……..but I told you so

 

Acquired taste I guess. We feed it to our babies...

 

Please say you don't eat Bovril ....

 

No, that's English.

 

Eat it? I've been using it as gasket cement for years!

 

Kerosene is cheaper than Bundy Rum, and the taste is similar.

 

Over here we have Old English 800 which has a taste like carbonated furniture polish....Somebody better start posting Aussie car pic's soon

 

A Ute or a shooting brake or something......especially slopers

 

Agreed! I’m trying not to post too much since I have yet to take a HAMB-worthy car pic…

 

To get this back on-topic and since my next stop is Brisbane…a couple pics of @X38 ’s cool sloper custom. Car is turning out great by the way!

 

Again, that's English.

 

Where are you staying?

 

Here you go...
The driver has the correct "arm out the window" while driving opposite lock

 

Calamvale Hotel

 

Since I brought up the 59 Ford deal that my son is considering, that plot has thickened. A fellow HAMBer following along here let me know about a better car available for similar money, so now there are decisions to make on my son’s part. We will see how this plays out, and I pray he makes a good decision.

 

I'm guessing that's near where you are working? Definitely not a tourist destination.
It's not near me either.

 

Looks like fun. I know I would enjoy the trip. I’m an old Rugby player and this is a bucket list thing for me.

this thing says you posted yesterday. I suspect it really is tomorrow back home. What is the date there?

 

It's Tuesday 10:39PM and about to be the Wednesday the 8th. Goodnight.

 

Yes, only about 10 km from where I will be in the morning.

Yep, what @X38 said…about time to go to bed on the day you are just waking up to.

 

...more pics when you get em,...thanks

 

Now try cheesy toast. Toast, beans, cheese. If you’re fancy, put a slice of tomato on top and roast it.
Toast with vegemite and cheese is good too.

 

Following along so I looked that hotel up. Nice rooms, an outdoor beer garden and Wednesday night is "50 cent Wing Night". What's not to like about that?
