    I was told earlier this morning that Bob was very poorly. Now he is gone. It might sound odd but Bob & I loved stirring each other, especially about politics. It began on one of the Murray trips where we first met, & became our way of 'connecting'. It was always warm hearted & although we sometimes held very disparate views we knew we liked each other. It is now some time since I last spent time with Bob, but that doesn't make the news any easier. He was a good bloke. My thoughts are with all those who loved him.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Deepest sympathies to Lorraine and family. Very sad time.

    Thanks for the memories Bob. You were a truly decent man, a great friend to this forum and will be sadly missed. Bye mate, see you again one day.

    What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??
