Why put off getting it till monring :sleep: when you can get it now.

Cos I like my sleep (mind you our son woke us at this time, so I might as well have gone out for a scoot!!)

And cos you don't want to get beaten again by the scooter, right?

So each bike I have ridden past (GSX600f, GSXR1100, Ducati 750ss, Buell 955 Lightening, Ducati ST4, and Super Duke 990) I have taken a pic of right in front of the sign at the front of the graveyard.

Recognised carlas tag straight away,couldnt get it this morning as car was to be picked form auto trimmer,then run the daughter round a bit .Got to car to find seat belts dont retract,so had to go away till the pulled it apart again(new headlining) so they could put it together again.So all good just complete the errands quick bite to eat and off.Sure enough despite starting well all week it doesnt crank but i live on a hill.So over the hill very slow very windy,down the lake,even windier,approach tag click into neutral stop engine,attempt to start while still rolling,no response from starter so use remaining momentum to bump start....no coffee for BMWST in Martinborough,was gonna upload at Quasi,s if poss,but i didnt even stop the engine.Traffic even worse on the way back over the hill,and starting problem seem more likely to be the starter itself.Sigh ol euro bike$...

True ... I remember that on a Time Team episode, and old baldrick also said that its used in places where foundations are not as firm as they should be....

So...wher the hell is it?
I SV'd the two churches I thought this was, wrong both accounts but I am sure its in the Hutt................

Defunct petrol station at 68 Aro St, Te Aro.

I remember getting a WOF for my 1980 Mitsubishi Mirage there once (probably around 1993 or so). Remember the guy shuffling out, jacking up the car, having a bit of a look, shuffling around to the other side... rinse and repeat. Looked like he couldn't give a rats arse about anything! My usual mechanic would lift the entire car up on one of those stands, and walk around underneath with a spotlight! (I didn't go back to Te Aro station again...)

Thinking back I did a run on school 'art graffiti' as a theme, Stokes Valley, Naenae, Titahi Bay, places where the schools did a huge motif on walls etc

I have a file pic of this that I didnt post as a tag, instead I chose the Stokes Valley one that day and a former flatmate claimed it

I have NOT posted this as a tag...

There are two tunnels. I can't remember if they are linked. From memory they are two big empty rooms, apart from teenager's detritus. Although I think there was a bricked-off door in one.

Doh! :facepalm: I thought it might have been done. I even tried to search the thread for 'shelley bay road' and it said there was an instance of those words, but I'd have to trawl through all 1000+ pages to find it. Not a particularly helpful search engine.

Yeah, it took me a while to realise that I needed to use the advanced search, then make sure to scroll down and select

I also searched on 'coal tunnel', because I remembered some of the discussion - though that got lots of Pike River stuff too.

Easier to use the 'thread tools' and browse the images, can select from the beginning and set the number of images per page to 50, then there's only seventy pages to scroll through. Easy really.
