Yes, and charge time was generally three times that of operating time.

Yes! Whilst being shouted at for not holding it correctly!

Yes! I’m not sure how it was possible, but they seemed to make things darker.

Didn’t you own a V10 M5? You just love pain don’t youπŸ˜‰

Agree, but I’d take the V8 for the slightly reduced likelihood of financial ruin if the donk goes bad.

Was a quiet day at work so I made scones. It’s a tough gig.

I was too young to catch you guys in the 80’s but Cold Chisel was a massive part of my teens. I’ve since been fortunate enough to see you perform twice in recent years and both times have been highlights. I’m immensely grateful to have had the opportunity. Thanks for the music and the memories!

Well look at that! I’m going to have to have a sit down with a bottle of red and have a good look at through. There are some tree documents somewhere, I’m not sure whether they’re in my or my brother’s possession. I’ll have to see if I can find them.
What’s your association with the name?

So far the algorithm thinks I like woodpeckers and cross stitch πŸ€” If anyone can steer me towards some aviation, automotive or mount bike people, I’d be rather grateful!

Yes. County Clare if my memory serves. If you go further back though my understanding is that the heritage was also Dutch.

Not that I’m aware of. My lot are mostly Victorian, although I wouldn’t be surprised. My understanding is we’re a fairly small group, so quite possibly all descendants of the same Irish convicts!

Sadly not. But my passengers are usually unconscious so they can’t tell.

So I had flies and thought, β€œthat doesn’t look right”…and changed it. I have now changed it back as I have realised I’m an idiot.
I appreciate you being there for me in my hour of need. 😬
