More cranes, not so big as the boat only weighs 6 tons.
Last road move by Robert Honey.  Travel lift, well sort of crane. Last time I went on one of these during launching a friends ketch, the front strap slid off the keels foot, dropping the boats bow suddenly. Nearly forcing us into the water.

Thought I'd post up an image of a less than usual, non-modified, cockpit from a modern Falcon.
Anyone other than dfb able to identify what makes it a little less usual?

Yep, that's the one. Too obvious, eh? I was sitting in the car this morning waiting for it to warm up a little and realised that aspect is not something many ford lovers would be familiar with in the modern era.

 Apart from having the extremely rare Cashmere cloth interior, can anyone tell what is different with this particular G6?   In these G6E press images, there was a blue hue to what was supposed to be white.    XR for comparison.......................

Whoever thought green backlight is a good idea in the 21st century should be shot.
Reminds me of 1980s Japanese Econo cars like Holden Barina. Hard on the eye driving at night when the old fatigue is starting to set in as well. |

Haha, I have to admit that option is pretty cool. Although for real nostalgia it should cap the tacho to 4500rpm and de rate it to 150hp.

Phone died on the plane back in January - wouldnt restart no matter what. Chucked it in the drawer and bought a new phone.
Found this the other day when looking for something - battery has swollen and pushed screen off the case dont know if it could have caused a fire

Put a bit of butter, garlic and herbs on, stick it back in the drawer. If you smell a tasty roast coming along - that’s your battery fire.

 I have an image in my head, birds coming in for a splash and drink suddenly being thrown into a spin as your birdbath takes traction, putting deeper sides on it could create another level of excitment for bird watches as Mr finch/sparrow etc come spinning out at 80K/H

Close Tonz, Anawhata beach right next door. Mate has a bach down by the beach with private access, we spent Saturday helping on track mantanice, probably my favorite place to be., bonus is its 20min from my house. Hope you're young fella improves, value the time with him, our third eldest would have been thirty two this year,
muscular dystrophy only provided him a short time. Top pic is Piha Beach taken from Anawhata road.       online dice roller d6 |
