Was following this for a while today on the M2 freeway. I was in the partners Mitsi Mirage... and grandad was booting his 'stang' from 80 - 120 kays an hour to blow out the webbs.. didn't go that well. Wasn't 'spanking' me as I expected. Yes sure, it pulled away, but not as rapidly as I expected it would, being such a minter. 289 badge on the guard.
 Pretty sure I got busted by a new mobile phone detection camera using my phone about 10 seconds after taking this pic .. BUGGA! One Man

Sorry no pictures, but was in Corryong Vic yesterday and there was some English Ford meet up.
Various models of Zephyrs and a Zodiac.

Yes me to.. Re: the mobile phone detection cam... bugga moment.
Today's spot: an original XB ute, 250 column auto in cream. Good nic to. Next was Nana in her orange 4 door LJ torrie, original owner I suspect, judging by the condition. And the winner goes to:  Very nice resto. Sounded tough as. Had the opportunity to get embarrassed at a red light, but decided against it. The TRD is 'quick' to me, but it's still just a taxi. lol. A nice taxi.. One Man

A good dash cam will take reasonable pictures and costs less than a phone fine.
I’ve seen three Munros in the last two weeks - a red HQ in the back of Marrickville, a red HT or HG on Victoria Rd Drummoyne, and a white HK (I think) on Beecroft Rd. That’s excluding the workshop’s space-waster. |

There was also a model T on the other side of the road where I took this pic. Didn't have time to grab a happy snap... as there were a few cars waiting behind me, and funny thing is, the nearest guy was waiving at me... sure wish he'd use all his fingers next time he waives at me...
 Cheers, One Man

Only positive about mobile phone detection cameras being i can tell my spawn to can their GenZ expectation of dad responding instantly to their endless messages. If you want a conversation, spoken english works well though your endless acronyms and sidesteps to memes will abandon you. I've never known such peace.

Volvo 440GLT in Hunter’s Hill this afternoon. Think it’s years since I last consciously observed one.
Commiserations on the fine FTE, I think next year the in-force average speed “safety” camera on Vic Pass will also nab a huge number of Bathurst-goers. It’s not the cash value of fines that irks me, but the $150 impost per green slip, times three or four years. |
