Fun Down Under

[Dave04]

Well.. as some of you may know... I'm on my big vacation down under (Australia)...

But... couldn't pass up the chance to look at cars. The good news is that the owner let me have a quick spin around the area in it... It was a real treat...

Is that an MGF? I remember seeing a couple of them cruising around Scotland the last time I was there.

Nice! How's the ride?

Oh, and see if you can't score a Holden!

Some Aussie tips.

1. Do Crocadile Dundee and Crocadile Hunter impressions. They love that!

2. At every meal, ask for "Shrimp on the Barbie" and you will fit right in.

3. They love talking about their history and be reminded how their ancestors were all criminals.

4. If you have to use the toilet, ask where the "loo" is.

5. The phrase, "G'day mate". actually means, "Will you scratch my back?"

6. If someone of the opposite sex calls you a "Yank" it means they want to sleep with you.

Hope this helps. Let us all know how it goes. Fosters --> <--- Fosters

Actually, it's the MG TF.

Fun times with it though... owner said they were going to replace it with a new Aston Martin pretty soon.

Ahh... unrestricted speed limit... too bad the roads don't support going THAT fast...
