    Is that a Chevy badge on a Holden? The plate should read 'Bogans'

      I'm pretty sure some of the newer HSV's have chevy badges as they have big chevy engines...

        Nope, they've had US engines for ages but never the badge, it's an aftermarket wankerism. see here[^]

          I think Holden. "Bogans" yep! The picture was taken in Hamilton VIC, would be one of the bogan capitals of Victoria, of course we don't live there, just visiting for the day :) . We are from the slightly less boganish city of Warrnambool VIC, bogan city with a sea view!

            I've been there (in a VC commodore no less), nice place if I remember correctly. It was the western limit of our last pre-children road trip.

              I hear a rumour that next year's Camp Quality esCarpade (being the 20th year) is going to follow the original route, which was something around Melbourne to South Australia... I hope you stop by to say g'day if we make it there!!

                Wow, I see so many around I assumed (there's my mistake) that they must have been factory... Being a Ford man and all, it makes little difference to me!! ;-)

                    Yes, just at the end of the Great Ocean Road, most people do the road, end up here, then turn back. I'm not a big city person, so it suits me fine, not too far away from Melbourne for the odd trip if we need. I can walk with my kids to school from home in 5 mins, another 5 mins walking and I'm in my office. That's the best thing about living here for me.

                        Yep, we went north east from there to Ballarat. Man, that was a place I never want to visit again. The cops did eventually catch the people that broke into our car and stole all the high heal shoes my girl friend had bought in Melbourne. I notice the company you work for is based there. There seem to be these odd little software companies all over the place in VIC. Do the limited employment opportunities there worry you? What would you do if they went belly up?

                            Yes, thats the trade off for the convenience I spoke of above. The sites listed in my profile are actually owned/operated by me and I am currently the only employee, I actually have more work than I can handle most of the time. I did have an employee but he disappeared, another down side is the lack of talented people in regional areas. But at the moment I probably couldn't afford to pay an employee anyway. If I had have known how hard it is to run a business before I started, I don't think I would have taken the leap... I am also lucky enough to have the support of a former boss who I can contract for at the drop of a hat. But if all of that disappeared tomorrow I could always become a prostitute, that's what I tell my wife anyway... she thinks we would go bankrupt...

                                My little brother - more than once - managed to climb up the rails of his crib, pull himself up onto the window ledge, work the screen loose (which most adults couldn't get open without pliers), and fall outside the house to the ground. Whereupon he crawled under a bush and watched in silence as the entire neighborhood searched, screaming his name, in search of him. Kids do the damnedest things, and it's no reflection on the parents if they fail to imagine all the possible things a child can get into. Gross negligence is an entirely different matter, as is deliberately placing a child at risk, but we've gone much too far in trying to legislate a risk-free existence, even for children. Childhood is a time for risks, learning hard lessons, skinning knees and falling out of trees. Take that away and you create a generation of weaklings, unable to cope in the real world. Just like we have now... God help us, these useless creatures will be running things soon. :sigh:

                                Will Rogers never met me.

                                  Nice! I like it. Just doing the math 85.5 / 0.5... That would nearly be my record.
