04RSD Member 78 Member For: 18y 2m 22d Posted 04/02/07 02:19 AM Share Posted 04/02/07 02:19 AM yeah on Friday I had to head into town when it was flogging down. Oddly for Mackay everyone seemed to be driving pretty sensibly, the conditions were just plain bad as were the roads. Anyway some Hilux knob jockey heading the other way comes hammering down the street, flying through some big arse potholes and showering the Phantom in rocks.Naturally I wasn't pleased later to pull over and discover my windscreen is f*cked. My main regret was not being able to follow that cretin home so I could exterminate their family right before their eyes. Hopefully their house was flooded at least.←same here 3000ks old and I need a new windscreen alreadynot happy jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the townsville guy's will arive in prossy about 1pm, so it gives us some time. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
