Hoping for a day trout fishing with one or both adult sons to Bonnie Doon.(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160901/9078fe921160d507625c94625e9b302a.jpg)

I put an order in ranging from stuff like a dual cab cruiser or Yamaha quad to a new gun or electric motor for the boat... I think I'm getting a chainsaw sharpener.
Oh well, a kiss & cuddle from the wife & kids would have been good enough for me anyway.

Dunno what I'm getting yet, I told the missus I don't need anything and to save some coin. But by the sounds of it she's gone and spent the kids college fund on it. We'll that's at least how she's making it out to be.

Yeah, I know you are all probably sick to death, hearing about the Caddy every 5 minutes.... too bad huh  ;D

I wish it would hurry up and get here.

Suggested my daughter buy me a new journal as I r3ecord lots of detail on vehicle and trips. Current one just about full - after 25,000 kms on trips last years and about to head off for another 6500 later this month.

My wife has suggested I need a new pair of good walking shoes - therefore she can pay.

But the sleep in past 4am followed by some cuddles from my two girls would have been more than enough.

Hey Fizzie

They are great, i recently bought this one from Repco when it was on special with $100 off. It's claimed to start petrol engines up to 8lt and diesel engines up to 4lt.
Used it to start a neighbours 5lt V8 last week and it handled it no problem. You could light up half the neighbourhood with the onboard LED torch, it's a beauty. Also comes with two USB ports.

I have one of these in each car. They are absolutely fantastic.
Some mug left the lights on the tractor on and I used it to jumpstart it. Then on the way home a dunnydore had a flat at a servo and I used it to jumpstart that.
Forgot about it for a couple of weeks then used it to start the excavator as I took the battery out and forgot to take it back with me!!!! (goose I know...)
It still had enough oomph to start it.

Finally got round to charging it and putting it back in its place in the car...
Love it.


Now onto the OP - I am absolutely wrapt - I got a weber Q for the caravan for my birthday a few days before fathers day and then got all the bits to go with it for fathers day.
Why have I not had one before???????

Loving that too. Thanks ferals, you really do love your old man ;)

Hubby conveniently forgot these were part of his father's day pressy but I swiftly reminded him.

News rod and reel he has been wanting for about a year now.

The mounting done for his new electric motor he got off layby about 6 weeks ago.

8yo then gave him BCF beer mugs on the day, a fishing scene light and also a travel mug with 'World's Coolest Dad' on it that he bought at his school's father's day stall. His dad uses it every day on the way to work at 4am.

We also went fishing all day Saturday.

Roll on mother's day lol.

Roof rack Superstore in Mitcham say they weigh 30 Kgs. and use the heavy duty Rack legs.
That's a lot of extra if you add the Rear and Front bars as well.

Roof rack Superstore in Mitcham say they weigh 30 Kgs. and use the heavy duty Rack legs.
That's a lot of extra if you add the Rear and Front bars as well.
The one to go on my canopy only weighs 20kg as it is their smallest I think approx 1500x1200. No sides just the flat platform for me.

Ok, he might have looked at my 105 and gone for the biggest platform he had, but they're still not light.
