I've had the best day..............
Today i decided to go down the coast to visit my friend, i thought should i take lizzy (kombi) or my vespa and freeze my bits off (but get there
faster!). so i decided to take lizzy for a hoon.............. man i had so much fun just crusing along the freeway listening to my boyfriends latest
edition to my CD collection, ELO greatest hits............... now im only 30 but i had flash backs of the 70's with mum and dad and 6 kids in our
blue '72 volkswagon microbus going on holidays in the summer singing along to ELO. What a day!!

Shades of "the kids are alright" come to mind, and mods and rockers fights.
But I agree Rachel - sometimes just the right music, right road, right weather, and the right car - make it all worthwhile sometimes.

Its gettin bad when you can recognise someone from their avatar and their bus from a reflection in their sunnies, I said to my wife "I think I
know her", but I think she thought I was just talkin crap.
Nice bus - but you should really get one of those handsfree phone kits though :o:P:o

Racheal - with your gear stick - I have heard you can use an occy strap to help stop it jumping out - give it a go :thumb

Hey fish, I think I might have seen you driving around, are you at the Caloundra end of the coast or the Noosa end? If Noosa then I haven't  but I've seen a yellow and white Kombi getting around.
Isn't it amazing, you never notice them until you get one and get interested and then suddenly they are Everywhere!!!
(btw I'm likely to be in the Convertible bug Carrera, it's 'bubblegum green' or that's what I call the colour anyhow ) |

elo = electric light orchestra
lots of big hair and sideburns, fake velvet jackets with big lapels, mega flares etc... the usual 70s thing
it was a big band - take your average pop group, add a string section and some pretty good tunes
i don't think anyone has done any elo covers though, you half expect a dj to re-mix one of their songs, a bit like that awful remake of don
henley's boys of summer that came out recently...
