We have a new toy for the farm ute tipper thing.

I’ve mentioned this in a couple of blog comments over the last couple of months but thought why not let Oppo live vicariously through our experience. To that end...we are getting a shed.

May you not spend them coming to terms with Chinese flavoured powder coating...

Well as I seem to recall it did. And since I need a farm bike then it looks like it’ll be my next motorised project...

 Thing...

Primarily because I finally just remembered who Binky is...

Found in a decrepit box in the property dry dump whilst recovering scrap Holley carbies for recycling...

My 17 year old VW has finally used up its second battery... that’s right just two batteries in 17 years.

This ad is getting a run again on local tv. It's not a bad idea....

The average Australian weekly pay packet is a smidge under $1,600 at the moment.

Actually just doing a trail, fence and water tank inspection on our place.

I mean...who on Earth takes a D4 onto a dirt road, hundreds of kilometres from the nearest dealer?

Built 1823-25 in Richmond, Tasmania. Entirely the town's claim to fame. Though I will agree the proportions are favourable..

But in a good way...this won instead

...and Tasmanian roads are great fun

I’m off to Tasmania tomorrow morning for most of January. Whitewater rafting on the Franklin River for 8 days then a wander around the place using Mum’s D4 to its fullest.

Because why not, eh?
