    Default Bad start.

    They say that the majority of road accidents occur close to home , well I can certainly attest to that! I had to go to Adelaide on monday to attend a funeral on Tuesday , so 5:00 AM saw Me in the car , pulled out of the driveway and began my 600 odd Km trip. No sooner had I gotten into top gear, about 250 metres from my front gate BANG Hit a bloody roo and did about a grands worth of damage. Not enough damage to make the car undrivable but certainly enough to annoy the Mrs. (it is her car)
    To make things worse , the bloody thing got up, and hopped away as if nothing had happened.
    I have lived in this street for nearly 14 years and never seen a kangaroo.
    Anyway thats my vent for the day! Cheers Steven.
    The hurrier I go, the behinder I get.
