Hi Rose...
No, I just don't like it getting wet....

and I might wear My new windscreen wiper rubbers out...
or My mud flaps may get wet...
not to mention the running boards... lol
and My extractors and muffler.... how will I keep them clean?
BUT....
My Heater boxes work great...... lol
I love driving in the rain with My heater On.....
Well.... that settles it ROSE...

PS: I might just go and polish it once more before it gets wet.. lol... and clean under the hubcaps.... lol
I'll have to close that sunroof too... lol or drive very fast...

Don't drive fast - you may hit a tree or go over a cliff if you do.👍
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

If its really pouring miserably I'll probably just day trip it in the mainstreamer on sat.
Ballina to Coffs is the already the countrys worst blackspot section of highway 1 without adding water
my brother in law is a truck driver and he rang to tell me that he's seen heaps of dak daks heading to valla today in his travels.😂😂
I'm all packed and ready to go one more sleep yippee Valla here I come & 5 days off work I love being the boss.
Shit Lee, is that your car? Hadn't seen it before.. nice..
JONO
Lee,
We'll all be in the same boat (maybe a boat would be a smarter choice...!)
You'll really miss out if you don't drive the vw up. Especially if the rain clears up!
Glad you seem to have resolved to come in the bug.
Now just do it do it!!
😁
Lee Please stay at home and the rain will go away
Carnt wait Rose
Hey Lee, you staying at the same place as last time? We are - may see you there.
PS - if it rains, put the wipers on - it always works for me. lol

Lee, the Notch has new front brake bits, oil change etc, new windscreen rubber, accessory sockets now in for mobile phone and satnav and hasn't been to Valla since 2006! You ask if I'm leaving the Notch at home! It's getting wet whether it likes it or not!
😂 Wouldn't be the same feeling driving the Crumpledore!
Had worse times in August 1969 when Warrell Creek was flooded and the diversion was around the hills somewhere back to Kempsy. Great driving a Notch with caravan in tow!!

Cant be any worse than the pouring rain up here at the moment
