Hey Dean
Cool old ad
Ya shoulda been on the econo run to Ballarat with us
It was very, very cold but good fun.
These new fangdangled gas BBQ's in parks are no good to keep warm by:jesus
Luckily there was a good big rotunda type shelter with the BBQ in it cos it rained most of the time
Jay's Wolf has good heaters so we were toasty in the car
Just got home and I'm sure we just had a big shower of sleat, brrrrrrr!!!!!!
Heater is now on:bounce:bounce
Hot coffee and the puter for me now:rudolf
Hey smilies have been rearranged, thought for a minute we may have scored some new ones nad went along the lines to check:cussing:P |

Well, stocker heater is good, no rust makes it even better
We needed someone there today with one of those 'Stationary Heaters', that stayed warm, in their VW so we could all stand around and keep
our hands warm like in the first pic.:thumb
Were they out here in VW's |

Spewing I couldn't make it to the econorun, I had the Scouts over all weekend rebuilding a trailer in my shed. They're turning my old SEC
trailer with rotten floorboards into a nice steel-floored trailer with a removeable weatherproof box for their camping gear. :thumb
Unfortunately with all the rain we had, combined with the traffic of parents stopping by to check on progress, my driveway has now turned to slop. I
nearly get bogged just driving to the shed now! :o
I've been doing my mileage since the engine rebuild, and I seem to be averaging about 15l/100kms, but I haven't had it tuned properly yet
(my attempts don't count! )

Keep doing those excercises, it's amazing how weak the muscles get after not doing your normal stuff
God I found the excercises boring:jesus
Wah, can't remember the twitchy muscle thing happening, must have blockED the memory
Look after yourself and keep up the RICE |

Oh, remember the machine now:o
Very weird sensation
Electrical stimulation of the muscles:jesus
Rehab is such fun:sandrine
You get RICE drummed into you when you do Sports therapy studies, well for any traumatic muscle injury
How the frozen peas going? Getting nice and squishy |
