    Go away Ian. You are an exception ... if only because you proved me wrong :mad:

    I've got a mate with a house at Belair. I can only just drive my car up the damn thing, let alone back a boat up it.

    I worked for a fella back in the days when the Adelaide Hills were just becomming trendy, when the term 'yuppie' was new and quite derisive, and when yuppies had just discovered four wheel drive status symbols.
    This bloke hated the term 'yuppie', and the creature. But he had the misfortune to live in the house his family had owned for a billion years and which was in the Adelaide Hills and which featured a near vertical, dirt driveway - it was so steep that no-one would concrete it for him. And so, the only vehicle that could get up it in winter was a Toyota Land Cruiser (back in the days when they were king). Needless to say, most of his professional peers ignored the practical realities of his situation and insisted on calling him a yuppie for driving a Landcruiser, while they all did well with station wagons. It used to drive him incandescant.

    Cheers
    Richard

    Richard I saw your boat with your dog in the other post. I could carry your boat up your drive, probably with one hand

    Cheers Ian

    Sinonatra,

    Are you cheating on this thread. Is that the North Sea?.

    Hi Jow

    No it is actually the Bass Straight in Oz. Shots taken on our last well.

    They were some of the better mornings

    Thanks Sam for the knowledge, I wondered why I was seeing pipelines in Victoria near Port Campbell. Now I know.

    View from my place. Can just see the sea in a couple of them, and, as I said, the almond trees are looking nice.
    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.
