and found a new sport that is fantastic fun :twisted: ...
i now live in a house that backs onto the waikato river which is chokka with Koi carp right.....so what better way to spend an hour or two walking the dog on the river bank armed with the .22 and shooting them (Koi carp) :twisted: hundreds of the bloody things ! AND they are a noxious pest that needs dealing to so im having fun at the same time as doing the river ecolagy a favour :wink:

thats all from me and thats all from him....

TO ALL A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT

Chopped into the first rear gaurd to get the 39.5's moving up and down like they should.

Might need to take a bit more off the rear edge yet, although it doesn't actually touch, it only misses by 3-5mm :roll:

Image


I think I still have full atriculation though (not 100% sure as the ramp was not high enough :!: )

Shit I am going to get into trouble with these tyres :twisted:

its a bloody good time of year to get some things sorted eh, eventhough im working through. :evil:

Any how on Xmas Eve day, I manged to change the coils & plugs on the WRX, with minimal skin loss :lol: , so still felt i could put together our new outdoor table, among other things.

Had a good Xmas day with everyone around at our place, cooked up a good BBQ. Our wee girl got some cool stuff as you can see, including a cool motorised quadbike,

today i got some paint & painted my recently aquired 15 x 7 Steel wheels, shit there heavy, gotta be strong, There going to be fitted with some 32x11.5 Wrangler MT/R's in the next day or so.

Wont stay THAT tidy for long, will it?

We what know you so well are waiting for it to look like my shed...

.....so what better way to spend an hour or two walking the dog on the river bank armed with the .22 and shooting them (Koi carp) ...


Gonna have to visit again, you obviously need help with your new life's calling and I am a MUCH better and faster shot!! thinking about it brings back memories what I am gonna have to talk to Bosshogg about as we distribute a few bricks of .22 lead into the sacred river.

Remind BH about one "WALLY HAWKINS" and the nights it rained eels and mud!!!

yea lol - just comparing the two pics it appears as though the body is down tight on the first one and floating above on the second.

obviously the different angle, looks like the truck's gonna fall to bits
