RRS,

I'm the Mosman car. Drop in any time ( PM me for my mobile or get it from Rob or Mark ).

A silver one appeared around the corner this weekend, not sure if it was a "sleep over" or a newbie in the street, I plan to scope it out - would be neat to have a DND member in the same street.

RRS,

are you in Mosman or passing through each morning enroute to town?

drop by for coffee some afternoon on your way home, there's a cafe / newsagency right opposite the corner spot I try to park the car on ( opposite our place ) most of the time.

++dez;

ps: sco, no history posts sorry * grin *

ps: mark, yea, dog tired posts end up without self increment * sigh *

Saw a red one in canberra today near kingston at around 7:20am
THought it might be someone on here

Made my withdrawls worse
Can't wait to get back to brisbane this weekend and drive my car again. Working away from home sucks when you have new toys you can't play with

Anyone in canberra want to lend me their car so I can get my RX8 fix for the day?

Well my cousin & business associate works at the cafe in the restaurant there. His name is Joe Barbaro - if you get a chance drop in and say hi (tell him Adrian said to drop by).

I stay at the griffin sometimes. I goto Canberra once a month for business, if you want you can rally up a few RX8 owners and we could go for a cruise.


P.S i was looking at some land in Royalla, 17 beautiful acres set on a hill over looking the suburd which went for $340,000.

lol compared to Sydney thats a bargain.

That was me. My Canberra office is in Kingston, and I was up early yesterday. Otherwise, you will see me around Hunters Hill and Lane Cove where my Sydney office is. But I am trying to give up the commute :p
