qld plated vehicles?

Hehe ... went fishin' Grin

My ex-boss after returning to Sydney from Qld was surprised to find he had so much more space on the road ... seemed that people had all of a sudden become courteous. Once he had the car re-registered on NSW plates all the gaps closed up ... everybody had been keeping their distance for their own safety laughingdp

yep, anyone from my neck of the woods in a fwd is considered 'concerning' considering we are inner suburban and the cars are silver and gold Porsche, Lexus and Mercedes Benz....the mentality that exists to buy that car means there is a lack of thinking 'share the road' / 'what about others' / 'get out of other peoples way'. It's a space war and they want more than anyone else.

RobS he was on holiday with his wife - I don't think girly pics were an option.  Julie looks like she was enjoying herself though.


Now Heather can't you see what your saying here. Undecided
Should read Julie was on holiday with her husband. Grin
And with equal opportunity . waytogo
And if was ok for Julie to pose with every guy she could find.
I can't see an issue with Betty doing the same with the female variety.
Now as Betty commented previously he didn't see any. Roll Eyes
Yer right.
Betty's a cool customer Cool don't upset the cook Grin waytogo

Umm Julie always enjoys herself!

And if was ok for Julie to pose with every guy she could find.

But she doesn't pose ... she just embraces the situations she puts finds herself in.

Yer right.

Well there were occasions Evil. Certain things do catch my eye ... I mean I am only human right? (debating that point can be made elsewhere thank you very much). I did notice this poor old girl in some trendy boutique (that doesn't sound very Italian) in Florence:



Everybody was walking past blissfully unaware ... but when I stopped to ogle and take photos a crowd started to form.

... and since you were talking about equality I found another for Heather (don't think I have posted this one before):



Don't know how many boxes he ticks for you, but he does ride a Ducati

Riding a Ducati is about all he's got going for him.  How can people ride so unclothed!!! So I suppose you're gonna tell me he was/is hot? Hence the lack of riding attire.  Roll Eyes
