I'll be back in Oz on the 1st December. Staying in Cronulla until the 6th, then flying home to Brisbane.
If anyone in Sydney wants to catch up during that week, drop me a line.

A BC winter is like a fairy fart, nothing to worry about. |

That was late summer. This is winter when the car is under 40 feet of snow.
Cant see it? That's the snow in the way!! |

That photo was taken In Illinois after an ice storm. It snowed the following night. It took 30 min and many gallons of hot water to get the door open, and the ground was so slick I had to pull the car into the shed with the tractor. The ground was solid sheet ice, and the tractor (ford 3000) had dual wheels just spinning.
And yes, I fell on my butt probably 10 times. |

Pansies.
I fly north in the winter.
Of course, I get paid to do it!
