Only illegal if you're driving a Motorbike.

It's irresponsible to use a laptop whilst driving!
You may spill coffee on the keyboard.

Brilliant !!

God help us when you get here.

And about convertibles ....driving along with your roof down is a definate no-no - it's because of the magpies that swoop down and try to nick your stubbie that will be glittering in the sunshine.

The Magpie Police don't like magpies to get pissed ...rowdy devils.

What the hell are you doing listening to other people?? The country is hot!!!! Most people keep windows closed to keep the car cool when they got the air con on. There are some who have the windows open but I reckon they havent got air con!! We just got back from our recci......fantastic and nothing like you expect!! Its better. GOOD LUCK!
