Tag: Liberty,LostGrantus Maximus @ 8:06 pm

For those of your interested I just got a phone call from Andrew. Him and Benny had just hired a car and were driving out of London heading for Scotland. Apparently they were going to stay in some back packers place in the city for a few nights.

BANG… hrrm.. *zips his trap*

Wasn’t too packed considering the line up.. was a sweet hook up on the door list (thanks Savannah!)… sooo didn’t think she’d come through cause I hadn’t heard from her! Sooo owe her a drink or at least 2 hours of my time, that I would have otherwise spent in the line.. LOL

Sydney here I come!!

Tag: LibertyGrantus Maximus @ 12:28 am

New Years Eve will be awesome this year!! I’ve just finished booking flights to Sydney.. me and a mate Ryan fly down on the 29th and come back on the 3rd…

A lot of the good events were booked out for NYE including Fuzzy’s Shore Thing on Bondi Beach with Basement Jaxx.. a sold out event last year as well with Fat Boy Slim! But we manage to score tickets to Pacha NYE at Home.

Another sold out event that would have been awesome is Field Day… Maybe we’ll pay scalpers prices for tickets yet though!

Ohh and get this we’re staying with one of Ryan’s mates 5mins from the beach. There will apparently be a couple of German backpackers they know staying there too.. Haha! Should be a ball… Of the German backpackers I’ve met, they’ve all been good value!

What a life….

We were staying at Coolangatta on the weekend and were down at the pool… And here was this lizard camped edge of the pool in one corner just a few centimetres from the water… I was in the pool tormenting it splashing it from and stuff… as you do… a little while later, after I’d given up, it dived in the pool!!!

I decided to jump out promptly at this point.. just cause I was getting a bit cold, you know ;)

But anyway… The lizard swims through the water over to the pools skimmer box and goes in! Turns out this guy has it made… He lays by the pool all day soaking up some rays, and occasionally goes for a dip and in to the skimmer box to grab all the insects it’s caught!

Indy oh-six conclusion…

Tag: Laughs,Liberty,LifeGrantus Maximus @ 2:23 pm

Indy was great… But I didn’t go out drinking any of the nights though, was just too buggered from the days! Would have love to have but would have meant staying with the boys for the Saturday night and I had a birthday party in Brisbane I though I should make an appearance at… Wasn’t too keen on staying with the boys either… 6 people to a 1 or 2 bedroom apparently sounds a little too cosey for me!! Hehe

As for Indy flashers everyone keeps asking me about.. yes another plentiful year! One girl was walking around the track by herself, got flashed by her on two consecutive days… given the odd’s of even seeing her again, but instead seeing the unveiling twice as well, I was surprised they weren’t more tanned! Haaha! Plenty of others on balconies all over the place, funniest was actually standing outside a building a mate was staying in, with a crowd of about 200 blokes all looking up… All of whom were chanting “pink shirt, pink shirt” etc… until the girl revealed something… then changing to a different color shirt in some other window… This happened for ages with 3 girls repeatedly flashing the boys! Haha… One revealing more than just the top half as well… Later that evening when up in a mates unit having dinner, a unit across the way had hired a full show WITH toys, no not lego’s… Hahahaha! Was hilarious..Was going to drive home on Saturday morning. Woke up to a sms from a mate who’d made it to the gold coast but the couldn’t get a hold of the guy he was suppose to be going in to Indy with… So we ended up going in for the afternoon and taking a lot more photos (especially since I wasn’t working Saturday!!).. He has an awesome semi professional camera too, had a nice zoom too which came in handy!

Many many more funny little stories I’ll have to remember, and share! One such story was a bloke sitting on a deck chair on top of a van, dangling a makeshift fishing rod down over a high traffic pedestrian path.. it had a lollipop attached to the end ;) Hahaha! So something I’d do…Special thanks to Michelle and Sul for putting me up for a few nights!

GPS Says “Take 4WD track…”

Tag: Laughs,Liberty,LostGrantus Maximus @ 2:31 pm

One hilarious story from the weekend wasn’t mine to tell but I’m going to share it anyway! One of my friends drove up to Rainbow Beach by himself on Saturday morning… Armed with his trusted GPS Guidance ‘thingy’… Following its every instruction, he ended up following the path less travelled… As in NOT the sealed highways and main roads the rest of us took…He travelled through a number of small towns and eventually was instructed to turn on to a dirt track. The instruction was followed by a note that the track should only be used by experienced 4WD owners in the wet season. He was driving a new Commodore… Oh and did I mention it was raining the past few days and the night before?

Apparently the track wasn’t too bad initially.. But then the car started bottoming out a lot while driving through the deep 4WD ruts… The rain had also left a lot of areas of lose mud which meant that he had to keep the throttle open powering through it, chewing up path for fear for getting stuck…

Apparently he passed a group of 4WD owners on the track… who, impressed by his determination to get through the obvious unsuitable conditions for his car, cheered him on as though it was a Aussie Battler!! Some passing trail bike riders gave him a applauding wave as well…

At one point he said he was contemplating turning back, although there was apparently no easy way to turn around, and he’d gotten quite some distance already… However he zoomed out on his GPS map to find that the beach wasn’t too far away, apparently ONLY 19 klms… Hahaha!

End result was a two toned car – top half black, bottom half red… a thick layer of red clay decorating the wheel arches! But apparently he made better time than the rest of us? It would seem that when you tell a GPS Unit to find the shortest or fastest route it really does! Hahahaha…

I’ll upload photos of the car soon!
