Mmmmmm
life is returning to normal, drove in the gate and saw the familiar black notch parked off to the right 🙂

Did a wee bit on the bug, but mostly was looking for parts and getting them clean or painted prior to fitting. Have repacked the bearings etc for the swing arms and have the stub axles poking through. Will pack the CV joints with grease, fit my new axle boots to the axles and attach them to the gearbox and stubs next weekend.

Anyone else work on their cars this weekend just gone?

OK here it is.

I drive the beetle half a dozen times a year.
Petrol, rego and Insurance (although on club rego)are getting ridiculous.
For the amount of traveling it does it takes up valuable real estate.
I wouldn't use it as a daily driver (unlike the notch) because it would deteriorate quickly.

and

Sue said if I want a motor bike I have to sell something.
She's never let have a bike before.
plus I'll still have my notch.

Hey all been missing in action for afew days but have some awesome pics of my splitty that i'll post when i get home tonight.
Pyro are you looking to buy a converted panel camper splitty????From the sounds of it from your conversation with Bruce,is thats whats in Geelong?Geelong is about an hour from Melbourne,its right near where Zacs from(when hes not at uni)I used a transport company called Autotrans.It cost me arond $250 from Adelaide to my door.They're Sydney no. is(02)9335 1633.Hope that helps.
Kafer ,glad to hear you had a safe & fun trip.Bummer to hear you're selling the beetle but good that you've still got the notch.Petrol is so out of control i'm thinking about starting to ride my bicycle to work instead!!
Jen good to see you back & sounds like you & your mum had a beautiful outing on the weekend.
I went up to Sydney for a long weekend which was great.The weather was beautiful for 2 days but rained on Sunday which is when i came home anyway.
Steven is still working up in newcastle,he's been gone about 7 weeks now so we're starting to believe he's got another family stashed away up there,lol!!!!
The major exciting news though apart from my splitty nearly being ready is my footy team,the mighty Saints are one game away from being in their first grand final in 8 years & the possibility of winning they're second ever premeirship flag so i'm very excited of the prospect of that....sorry i know thres not really any afl fans amongst you guys!!
Oh....Snap.....!
