KEV mate, that dent actually happened when I was driving past a pub in The Rocks, and a fully tanked up pommie supporter, celebrating the victory fell off the second storey balcony of the pub and landed on me roof

but yeah, well done guys, make sure you keep it clean because we'll be round to pick it up in a couple of years

scooby babe i know what you're saying, took me a while to get over looking behind me when i was snorkelling too

i've gotten a really sunburned back from snorkellig whenever i do it, bobbing around in the water feels nice and cool for hours on end and its easy to forget about the sun...oh yeah don't worry about getting older before you come over to live either ha ha

Good to see there is a following for Scoobs down under too.
I was in Adelaide a few years ago and there was speed traps every couple of miles, is it like that in all the cities over there?
