All good, the wind kept the fire following along the ranges. The tip has caught fire, so may take a few days to put out. Alot of thick black smoke last night. And the sun is red this morning

I stumbled across this today, I will watch it for a laugh.
The life and death of the Taurus (goodbye sweet one, the worlds not ready for you yet - PerformanceForums
The gist is that they have bought a dead ugly car in Sydney, and are planning to kill it.

Looks worse at night.
On a lighter note, I spotted this while at the butchers this morning.

Hopefully she's & everyone else is OK.
There are plenty of Skylines to be had for a bargain. The last skyline meet I went to I'd say a that a good 2 out 3 were for sale. 
I guess this is one reason I love the AC cobra shape so much. 50 years on it still looks a stunner.
Whereas even the new Nissan GTR, as incredible as it is, will unfortunately age and be surpassed by some other another playstation generation toy. 
Boxhead - I hope all is well on the fire front. |
