17 year old son is out at an 18th birthday doo at a Rugby Club. Dropped him off but needs picking up at 1am. Argh - that's effectively 2am tonight with the clocks, and it's a 30 minute drive. Guess whose up at 8 for an MTB ride. Zzzzzzz I want my bed now.

Why, that looks like where they filmed the ending of "On the Beach". You don't know something we don't do you? Never mind, I'm busy packing now.

Well, I could tell you what would *drive* me to the footie: it's too hot, most of the wildlife is poisonous, I prefer Christmas in winter, I don't "do" sand, sea and surf and Aussie cars are crap LOL

Holdens are pretty good. A guy at work has one. Quite a few of the Pontiacs, when they were a brand, were Holdens. GTO, G6, IIRC.

Don't pick him up, and turn your phone off. Teach him that life will disappoint and he can't rely on anyone. He will thank you for it later.

Most cars in Australia are Japanese or Korean these days. Aussies know Holdens are crap.

Caseys gas station has a deal on pizza, now I can't go to Austrailia.
Oh, and the passport/airplane thing.

He couldn't afford to get back - it's about 12 miles away (plus he is Type 1 and may have had a drink - he's not drinker so will have to watch him). Down side is he's texted if I can drop a friend off - it's a detour which will add about 15 minutes on ! Where is my bed ?

And what's the thing with corks on strings round about the hat? Do they dip them in Citronella to keep flies away?

Yes, Rocky's photos reminded me of that book, and the film. It needs a large ship and/or a submarine.
