Hey guys, Haven't checked this thread for a while so i thought i would stop in.

We finally got a house down there, but it is going to suck getting use to cold weather, bit differen't from the sunny coast.

The house is in Gungahlin, so hopefully we are not to far out from everywhere.

[Baconer]

oo gunghalin, enjoy the wind

[TiTAN]

Plus your close to the porn shops in mitchell should you wish to spice things up. As far as shopping banking and such gunghalin has pretty much everything.

[CeJay]

Gungahlin out in the middle of nowhere anyone going to the rally of canberra?

[sl33py]

The main shops layout there strikes me as a little strange though.

[datto260Z]

there is nothing far away form anything in Canberra, except Gunghalin, its like Gosford to Sydney.

Nah not really, Canberra is easy to get around, its tops.

haha, i still dont know how he does that, people say its soapy ground but either way its impressive

Keeping this thread up there, a guy from my work had a massive crash last night. Basically he was driving home along the back road and a painters tarp was left on the road, he saw it at the last moment and panicked thinking it was a cow on the road so he swerved and over corrected, his tyre hit the dirt shoulder and threw him into a ditch, rolling his car and setting it on fire with him still in it, luckily his door was still able to be opened and he wasn't knocked out because from what i saw this morning it was an inferno. Everything not metal had been melted off and all that was left was a steel shell in a large burntout patch of grass. He was so shocked at the time that he didn't even know he had rolled and still denies it (despite caved in roof) and before getting out of the car he had tried reversing out of the ditch while it as on fire.

Crazy stuff

[GeeTR]

Jesus christ man, thats crazy Mad Max shit. Good to hear he's ok

[Baconer]

I didn't know cars actually set on fire when they rolled. I could imagine a car with carburettor might but this was a fairly recent Ford that would of ignited immediately after rolling (he left work at 7:30, 10 minutes to drive to where he crashed, called my boss at 7:45)

so I get pulled over in Mawson for doing 72 in a 60 zone tonight...

grumpy old man cop tells me off for doing 72 in a residential area, I tell him I'm sorry and just wasn't concentrating, he takes my licence and has a quick look over my car and then starts punching details into his little speeding fine machine.

He comes back to my window with licence and ticket.... and says "here you go, this is an official CAUTION" and gives me a printout that looks exactly like a ticket and even says "infringement notice" but it's not. wooohooO!!!!!

I think my car needs a wash BADLY... he wrote purple instead of red as the colour

[ZCR]

whoa lucky and sounds like your car does need a wash if he thinks its purple, or would being dark help the illusion?

[Baconer]

no ticket and mistaken details of car, both can be explained by boobs

[RaBBiT001]

no ticket and mistaken details of car, both can be explained by boobs

+1, they can get away with anything. Or maybe he would have rathered

[TiTAN]

if you were on your p plates and male that wouldnt have been a caution, it could be worse than having your car called purple.

[Shell]

horaaay for boobies!!

i was also very glad i'd renewed my licence about 2 hours earlier!! (it had expired a week ago!)

[Shell]

I don't suppose anyone's going from tuggers to lyneham later on?

I need a lift

[Shell]

dont worry... lift all sorted...
