Wow it's been years...Any of the OG members still here?

[E34 530]

Hey guys, it's been yearsssss since I posted here last, a lot of things have changed in life and was just wondering if any of the old school members are still here? Hope all is well and if I recognize any old faces I'll post up how things have been. Cheers

The big K is an old man now, married and everything.

Thanks for your SMS btw Kris, I do have mirrors and half shafts for you mate- what kind do you want?

Just read Big Kris got married. Congrats. Very happy for you.

I have had almost no trouble with the 535 for years so not much reason to hang out here. Now she has 115k miles on her and one dent that just annoys the **** out of me. Got her service 2 a couple of months ago and had a little work done on the air conditioning. Planning to move to Florida and going through separation anxiety about leaving my mechanic.

Where in Florida? I'm a snowbird now and winter in Central Florida, about an hour north of Orlando. On a lake with lots of gators.

'Gators. Pfft.

Land-based lizards are bad enough. Some are only enough to give you a bite, but here in Oz if a large one does bite you (its very, very rare) they may follow you. If you are a long way from help, it's bad- the wound quickly goes septic and worse (their saliva is literally lethal) and within as little as 24 hours you may be unable to walk. At that point, even the small ones will come for a piece of you!

Have you seen the saltwater crocs down here? 5m long. They swim in between Indonesia and Australia each year when breeding.

Here's a small one in the Australian Reptile Park, near us here in Sydney:

They have been known to capsize our tinnies (aluminium boats) to check out their content... and all sorts of ****.
