Re: Global Warming - Bring it on!
We picked ours up for $25K but it would probably have been closer to $40K new by the time you include all the goodies that came with it. That is about as much as upgrading the 4x4 to a new model would have cost and that was the choice the missus had. A dealer wouldn't sell anything much cheaper / older but you can pick up something older / smaller in the Quokka for a private sale. Being the end of summer and with the Recreational Skippers Ticket starting to be phased in it is a good time to buy at the moment as people are looking to sell.

Hello Ian me old mate - it's been a while!
Congrats on the new acquisition - it looks great. I'm still looking to get waterbound, but with five kids it's more likely to be a kayak.
On a different subject, Paul (gajjitt) and I both have our 2 year anniversaries on 28th April - we'll have to get a celebration sussed out.

Once we have got familiar with the boat we will start giving joyrides.
Have you got a citizenship interview / ceremony lined up yet?

Re: Global Warming - Bring it on!
No, no ceremony lined up as yet. Paul's investigated more (I see him most mornings when walking the dogs), and reckons it's not worth applying until your 2 years is up. I'll have a word with him when I next see him about drinkies - I can always get the train and bus to work and head back via the city.
