Another good day out. I would post my video of Klavdy trying to bump start the Triumph but I think he has suffered enough ribbing. I wasnt aware that late model trumpys still ran Joe Lucas electrics. It was just like the old days. I think I even saw a faint trace of oil where he parked it.
Thanks Doug for the invite

No one that drives or rides anything with Lucas electrics should travel without some basic spares.

In fairness, it did start okay.....Once a girl gave him some help with equipment and we took the seat off an FJ to get him some power.  :lol:

have to admit it was all pretty funny stuff, and a good day to boot, just out of interest did anybody else hit the big pot hole the other side of aussie zoo? it rattled my fillings.

The potholes on that road  were on the news the other night
There was 5 cars on the side of the road with blown front and rear tires
Your lucky, the one I saw, you could have parked your bike in.

Actually...Ya got me thinking about FJ socials...it`s really not the numbers that count...Some of the best gatherings are only two or more. (Three`s a crowd and "positively" great. imho)...
This particular gathering started with a PM to Baldy for a catchup...it only takes one to initiate and two for an fj party. (an fj mobile number and/or PM`s prior to posting events is the key)... I think we were all delighted that within two days it grew into 15.5 at the table!... Also think it`s a tribute to the general etiquette of this global forum that sees young family members (and their mums) eager to dine with us.



Baldy got called in from hols (at Sunday rates  :good2: ), ta help him out with his recently diminished bank account...Luckily we got his girl`s power leads to get Klavdy home.  :biggrin:

Yes, yes, yes, but what about the burning question everyone wants answered.  What happened to Klavdy's head????

Klavdy

My melon?

We went to see an Aussie expat mate in Santa Monica, he's got a high end hair dressers salon, raving queer of course but lot's of fun to hang out with.
Mrs K was getting her hair done and it was decided by all  that I needed to get my California Nazi on.



It gets better.

Our mate wanted some Aussie treats, you know, Twisties, Freddo Frogs, Snakes, Tim Tams etc so we brought him a great big bag of them.

I'd dragged that bag all over the place before it got to him,to the Rally and all sorts of other place, he was stoked to get it and the next day had an "Aussie Day"
A table with these treats was laid out for all to enjoy.
Twisties, lollies, Tim Tams and Anzac biscuits etc.

Hang on, I didn't put Anzac bikkies in that bag,WTF?

Remember, California has legalised marijuana and it's all over the place,including dispensaries that sell lethal doses of edible weed laced stuff.
Somehow a bag of pot cookies got in the bag of treats and some of his staff and customers got so fucking whacked they had to get sent home in taxi's, scandal ensued and he's rang us up straight away to ask if we knew anything about it.

I absolutely did not know they were there nor would I ever do such a thing but I couldn't help bursting out laughing.
My Bad.
