What's with all the Queensland specific threads that have popped up recently? Are you Queenslanders feeling unloved or something

Thanks Daisygirl. My car is often parked just a little further down the hill from where you saw it today. I put our new Aussie Aussie Aussie! number plates on today too - they match the roof graphic. I <heart> my Mini.

Oh... and I saw Big Turtle in the Aussie Mini today too - three for him.

And I followed a PW Cooper S in along Old Northern Road this morning on my way to work. That's two - not nearly as impressive as the Artist, but he kinda has the inside running on that one!

I can go days without seeing one, and then some days I see heaps. When I say 'without seeing one", obviously , I see one every day, but that doesn't count, so, I suppose I was right in the first place, thats unless you count your own as seeing one, and then, well, I see one every day.
Having said that, I havent seen one today, except one, but I'm not sure if that counts, so I could have seen one, or, i still may not have.
What you reckon?

Was at the game too. The only this it was missing to make it a perfect origin was a BIFF. I was waiting for Crazy Carl Webb to go mental and smash someone.

Thanks AndrewH. I have been MrsTurtle for quite some time, but I figured my first venture into the internet forum world deserved a name of my own. And since it seems I am often accused of being a "Geek" or "Nerd" by Mr Turtle - then I guess if the shoe fits (and it probably does) I might as well wear it! Mind you, there is some very serious "pot calling the kettle black" action going on there, as I'm sure you guys are more than qualified to recognise.

I saw the number plates as well and though how nice they matched the roof graphic. We have the same plates but the slim line on the front. I have heard you are allowed the slimline on the back now as well.

You just need one of the Aussie magnetic grill badges as well!!!

No idea Sunnybanker - haven't seen it. But I took some pics of ours today and put them in my gallery. Will have to ask the somewhat nerdier Turtle how to do the thumbnail thing in messages so you don't have to go looking for them.
