Nostalgia


I'm hoping that not too many of my posts revolve around shit from the past even though it has provided so many laughs over the years.Was driving down the road today on the way to an area where I take a walk from time to time and was coming up to Fussell Road in Kilsyth and just had to pull over and check out pick-a-part.I seem to remember spending so much of my time there just after I got my license and received the Mazda 1500.I think I went through about 3 window wiper water bottles and numerous other shit.Then there was all the stuff for Kurt's car,Bag's car.It used to freak me out when you would get there and see a fresh car that would have just come in and was a bit of a write off,and there would sometimes be a perfect impact mark on the windscreen a bit larger than a head made from the inside.But,there were funnier things as well,some of which I have mentioned on one of the blogs somewhere,the favourite was that mate of Bag's who I only met that one time who took a complete clutch assembly through the paying area down his overalls!My biggest crime was probably stealing an e-clip or two but am sure others did worse than that.Please post greatest crime etc.

Beer Bottles

Wanted to blog about this for ages,part of the Aussie culture and no doubt many others is the leaving of beer bottles.I chose this one to start with because it was taken at the ATM next to my favourite pizza shop in Watsonia.The reason I like it so much is that there was a bin about 3 metres away from it but was clearly too far to go to bin this baby.I had another that I took in Noosa in April,it was poetic,an empty beer bottle left on the top edge of a bin but not in the bin.So close but so far.sadly the image didn't come out in the night and that was the one that got away
Namesakes
In some ways it's a bit of a slack entry,we've all googled our own names to see what comes up and then done the same with the image search,but as yet none have been cataloged for all to see.There may be some additional entries made as they come to light,but given my slackness with my blog this hardly seems likely.
