    Ever seen $1000s blowing down the road?

    I just did,parked outside the bank and just getting out of the ute when across the other side of the street and down a car or 2 a Tongan lady starts screaming,there was bloody money everywhere,to cap it off its bloody windy here downunder.Unbelievable sight,ran across the road and started picking up $20 notes$100 notes,cars coming up the street had people jumping outta them and bank staff came running out to help.I will never forget the sight of people trying to catch this stuff when a gust of wind caught it,was in the gutters,in busheseverywhere.After things settled down and there was no more money to be chased we all returned up the street carrying handfuls of the stuff and returned it to the most upset lady,turned out she had gone to the bank to deposit it but arrived a few minutes after they had shut the doors,just about to get back in her car and away it wentNice thing was she had $9000 when she started and unbelievably when she had a count up she had the lot.The way the wind was i wouldnt have thought she would have got 1/2 it back to be honest.

    With handling skills like that, I'm not sure there will be a next time!
    The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.
