You and Tu's coming down to see the south?

How long do you give your Rovers b4 they shit themselves? :lol:

Maybe I will come on over to say Gidday and to meet Tu's too. Will be 2 weeks after my knee Op so hopefully will be fully mobile again by then.

What truck have you got now WJW?

OK, is this trip still on?

Has Tu's got a new gearbox in, and will you be there?

What time are we meeting and where?

I am keen to join the fray but finances are very limited currently so I would like to passenger with somebody.
Anyone keen?
