    Uhuh. I got me five of those things to try out at a 4wd show. I too thought they looked good and might be handy.

    I tried them with a propane torch and just made a mess…now they just sit in the shed. I thing the spruiker was using an LPG burner of some type…I just don’t thinkt hte propane was getting the base metal hot enough.

    I can’t use them (mong!) so I’ll chuck them in the ute and bring them up to the wattagans, you can try them out if you like.

    Dunno, probably.
    I’d have to check my headlight, she doesn’t punch out much light!

    Yeah? So, after I format the drive, I should format the drive? I formatted the drive, fitted it to the desktop, worked fine, installed it into the player, no workies.

    Repeat.

    I returned the unit a week ago with the faint hope that it will be replaced. This week has been pure bliss, I’ve never been so calm. I’ll never see it again.:dry:

    Congratulations and well done!
    I’ve sacked my accountant…his calculator is sh1t.
    I told him there were 106 at a guess and he says, “No way dude! My calculations say 127.”
    I hate people who say ‘dude’.

    I’ve only been outside once…the boys reckoned that if I kept my eyes on the horizon I wouldn’t be crook. I did and promptly threw my heart up (that might explain a few things!), took two sea sick tablets and then fell asleep. What a tops trip! Was the horizon thing a wind up? I’ve never been out since.
    I have done the Hawkesbury thing with a mate who’s since moved down the coast. It was great, I kept throwing bait on a hook out and it kept coming back clean. A boat not twenty metres away were pulling in monster jewies. Fishin’s great!

    Take a careful look at this picture; see the size of the snake and the Animal being pulled out of the water.

    I have only ridden with him twice. The first time when I was much less grey and much more naive, I thought to self, “Yeah I’m pretty fit and can handle a bike. I reckon I’ve got this bloke’s measure.”

    Result: less that two corners later I can’t even see the man’s dust.

    I thanked my lucky stars that day that I didn’t verbalise my cockyness! I learnt a valuable lesson that day my friends, never judge a book by it’s cover and to keep one’s gob shut tight. To this day I still don’t say much out loud.

    To explain, Mr. Eldridge’s right foot/leg, is artificial.

    Legend? I don’t know enough about the man to tag him a legend, but from what I’ve seen I can understand why the label might be attached.

    Oh! And I should add that I wholeheartedly endorse his bum bags. They are the shiznit!

    Not really Mick, but I do spend a lot of time lying on the couch watching the telly and scratching my nuts.

    Waaaaayyyy too much information!

    I did see a setup, probably on Porky Eldridge’s bike a long time ago, where he had both brake systems running on the one lever. No recluses back then my friend! I thought that would be wierd to ride…now I’ve seen this,
