Not sure if you've done it already or not, but as a Queenslander while "down Mexico way", you might want to visit the southern-most point on the mainland, the tip of Wilsons Promontory in Victoria (one more thing to tick off the bucket list).

Maate, I think you need a shave (and your nails clipped).
Woof!

Looking good, Stu. In the pictures they appear to have a bit of a blueish hue, is that there in person?

What happened to the Nat Meet banner? I thought you always kept that. I'm glad to see there's another DD SE out there. :beer:

You trying to grow some more?
They're not like potatoes.

I thought you might use them on the boat as anchors :twisted:

Can you post some shots of the Beryllium rims on the car in sunlight?
From pictures I've seen, they look like a close match to the Titanium colour but I haven't seen a good photo in sunlight of them on a Ti.
Will be interested to see if they "nick-up" like the Nickel rims do (ie. lose small chunks of nickel plating, leaving black pock marks)

The grass looks like it needs to be washed as well :)
