Default Finally feeling half settled...

Well I am finally starting to feel I am settled, no longer living out of a suitcase.

Here is my pride and joy outside my 3 bed rental which has a back yard!! Ute going well, done 5k now and no probs. Not burning any oil, not overheating. I hope to get it to the quarter million mile point (400k) with regular coolant and oil changes. Just like to say that it is the best thing I bought - great for jobs, removals, picking gear up - if you feel you may fancy one don't hesitate to get one - they are so versatile, and mates always ask to borrow.. ;-) I feel like a man with a van.

All I need now is some garden furniture and I can sit out in my back yard.

and a mattress, but priorities, eh.

lol - the picture actually is not to scale and makes me shorter than I actually am which is not giant anyhow. I am almost the same height as the ute.
