Rally car fun.....

I got my car back last Tuesday it looked great, not a dent in it and all painted. So I took last Friday just to put it back together and do a few minor things to get a warrant.

On Monday mum took it to the mechanics to get a warrant. It failed because it is to loud and I need a front sway bar bush, that is cool but when mum was driving it home the mechanics forgot to put the bonnet pins in… so the bonnet came up smashed the windscreen, got the roof, bent the bonnet and gave mum a hell of a fright. But the damage done isn’t to bad, so I now have a new bonnet coming and need to get the windscreen cut out…. Fun fun fun

On Sunday dad went down to Taupo with the three wheeling orange machine for a track day. He had a great day, apart form the last session, when it would seem the oil filter fell off and he lost the engine…. So that is also currently being rebuilt.

Camping fun

So the camping trip was interesting to say the least. Kelly and I didn’t arrive till about 12:30am at night after I got held up at work with a site going live. But when we arrived we were greeted with Michael and Mel sitting in Chris Moons campervan having a few drinks. Only to find out that chris was leaving to go back and pickup hay in the morning. And he would be back after that. Saturday consisted of Chris staring his generator to run his toaster and a lot of swimming and the arrivial of E-dog. Somewhere along the way the girls had decided to make this a “wild and wacky dress” party for Saturday night. The highlights I have to say here Tim in the mesh shirt Dan in the bikini where you could see his twig and berries, and ed getting swapping with clothes with Kelly’s friend… he looked so pretty in that purple dress. Eddie the Fuhrer with controlling the four king game. Chris arrived back loaded with dive gear. Sunday consisted of hangovers, relaxing, swimming a spot of cricket. And packing up.
