I like to grow stuff, fruit & veg mainly, my grandfather taught me when I spent holidays on his farm. If you can't eat it then don't grow it  ;D

Chillies are my speciality, I currently have jalapeno, habanero, red cayenne, asian birdseye and hot banana growing  >:D

This mornings harvest ready for the missus to make her 'special' chilli sauce  :cup:



Now your talkin' LUUUUV chili!!! i used to grow all my own veges and brew all my own beer and make all my own music and take all my own pix for making wall posters, found i didnt have time for much else except getting fat from drinking beer and eating food and playing guitar and taking pictures of the guitars i built  :cheers: haha

Motorcycles have been a passion of mine ever since I was a young fella on the farm. After a chance to buy my dream bike (A 1983 Honda cb1100F) 27 years after they were last available in Australia, I got an idea in my head after reading about other guys restorations on another forum, to have  crack at restoring one myself. A winning $510.00 bid on Ebay for a couple of basket case 1981 CB750F's just over two years ago has turned into a very satisfying (and expensive) hobby.

Before.


After


Before


After (Still a work in progress)


And my 1100F

Dazzler - speaking about woodworking - here is a link to my mate Nick's website.   When we first met he told me he made wooden furniture and I tried to compare the candlesticks I made in grade 10 woodwork and some bowls on the lathe.   He just smiled and agreed it was pretty similar....   Till you see what he does!!

In keeping with the thread - surfing and playing guitar/drums (I'd love to be a Jack Johnson but that ain't gunna happen anytime soon) and golf when time permits (ha ha)...  Supporting my kids soccer keeps that in check...

Where do i start!

I am heavily involved in our local Apex Club. We do a lot of catering and fundraising for the local community. We meet every 2nd Wednesday night, and I haven't missed a meeting in nearly 5 years.

I also like to go fishing in the Murray, although there is not a great deal to catch here. I have a Stacer 395 Proline with a 40hp 2T Yamaha outboard.

I also enjoy riding my Trail / Enduro bike - A Yamaha WR450f. There is a lot of good riding on roadsides, and in the Murray Sunset National Park and Lindsay Point nearby.

I also play Golf, although I haven't played a lot this year due to injury. I play off a handicap of 13 at the moment.

In my spare time, I help out at the kids school in the grounds & buildings committee.
