    Thats where you wire up two spotlights on the trailer for reversing, but have them on a separate loom..
    give them a flick, and they tend to get the message..

    Well all the rigs are in the yard kind of nice not being on the road for a few days
    time to polish rims and do things that need to be done...

    even better when the dumb buggers pass you and I flick on all six lightforce's
    Landing lights off a 747 have nothing on what the old KW has hanging off the front..

    Akzle

    I built a polisher that we can bolt a rim to and let the machine
    take most of the hard work out off, the young feller has been
    doing a bit of a sideline of late as we don't have to demount the tire
    after intital setup..

    besides I think its good to make kids work for there pennies these days
    I did

    Not too busy I hope.. I just had to take the bike out for a ride today even though it's raining Fijian's & Samoan's up here, tad breezy too, but warm. Tropical you could say. What with Christmas shopping to finish & the influx of tourettists in their campervans & hire cars, the roads are well dodgy.

    Got breath tested by a lovely officer from the Western Isles of Scotland a couple of nights ago, nice to have a bit of banter from some poor bugger having to stand in the road at midnight waving a neon carrot. I was tempted to ask if I could give her a reciprocal breast test, her being Scottish & all, but common sense & a rare hint of manners prevailed. If only I had been carrying my emergency tin of haggis I could have been in. Wahey!

    Yeah, I know. They can drink more than me too. I know from personal experience they can still get it up after 25 pints of heavy at lunchtime....

    Reading this, just a few hours ago the boys in blue and St Johns were pulling up outside the house opposite. The stretcher came out with a sheet over it and that's never a good thing. Felt sympathy for those dealing with it, but thank gosh these professionals are there to deal with such situations.

    Not a good Xmas for some ... All quiet on that front now.

    Um, Na man that's just sick, come on smoke I give you credit for being better than this.
    Perhaps I've just seen too much of that sort of shit in my time.
    Perhaps you need a good dose of A&E for a night or two??? Believe me it aint pretty.

    while I'm not the biggest fan of the ticketing system set up by corporate greed, I'm sure I wouldnt like our roads without the
    boys and a girls in blue, cruising around, so all the best to you, have a great xmas and new year.

    Ironic that Victoria here (I'm in Ocker country a.t.m.) which the NZ 'road safety experts' use as a place to source Really Good Road Rules(tm) for NZ has, at this point in the holiday season, got more road deaths than the rest of the Aussie continent put together.
    Fluke?
    Or food for thought???
