Welcome Mate  :hi: Ummmmmhhh........ Outback, Pro Hart territory.  He was right into Reds, Whites, Blues and Greys but hated pink I believe. The long legs of an FJ would love your roads. Do you use one or two of those Roo Shoos?

WTF are Roo Shoos???? :scratch_one-s_head:
A life has been well lived, if you have planted trees under who's shade you do not expect to sit.

I'm told I'm cynical, pessimistic and generally miserable. I say that I'm realistic! The fact that reality sucks is not my fault!

G'day carthage warrior & Welcome.  :hi:

Cheers :drinks:

P.s nurse. A Roo shoo is a sonic animal repeller.An ultrasonic device,either electronic or wind driven  (like a mini pan flute ) to scare Kankaroo's off the road so you end your Kookaloo very suddenly.

'God, I'm THOR!!!'
