Oh I'm sure HJs will be ok their shoppers taste pretty good. But nothing compares to home made.

The burgers up the street from work were awesome, til I went to NZ and had fergburger burgers....now I can't eat the local burger!

I think burgers are my favourite food.





Damn I'm hungry haha!

How was everyones weekend! Nice that the weather is warming up! But glad some snow is still falling, gonna head down next weekend for a last hooray spring slide!

Nick - fun fact but Australians weren't the first ones to do "race cam". We just named it.

Jaguar put on-board cameras on their D-Types for Le Mans 1955. There's footage on YouTube of Mike Hawthorn driving the circuit.

I was under the impression that those are recorded sequences, rather than direct live feeds?

Either way, D-Type all the way baby!

Weather is getting nice and warm. Zero condensation on the car as I left for work this morning. First time in months!!

W/E was ok. Fun Suby meet, Primary School reunion. Haven't seen those guys in 12 years and we got along like we were still all best buddies!

On the other hand, found out that my best mate from HS lost his dad on Saturday morning.

Heart attack at 7:30 and dead by 8:30. 46 years old. Healthy as far as anyone knew. Real shame. He was a top bloke...

Sorry to hear about your mate's dad, Morgan. My father had a heart attack at a touch over 55 - was a shock considering he's been eating/living healthy for 30+ years.

My weekend was pretty good - helped Alex get the red sled going Friday night, then indulged in some late night shenanigans on empty roads on the way home. Saturday was in the Hunter Valley looking at the wedding venue (and buying wine + cheese for Sunday Sips), then home for a friend's farewell. Pro tip; avoid Ettalong Bowling Club like the plague. What a dive. Sunday was a "spirited" run down the Old Pac to see a mate and stare at his eternal Maserati project, then home for wine + cheese on the lounge while watching Monster Garage

I had a mate back in high school who had almost exactly the same thing happen.

He (mate's dad) used to assistant coach my footy team, he used to run laps and keep pace with the best of us most times.

Mid 40's - a week after my mate's birthday, just never woke up. Had a heart attack during the night.

Cruel world.

It is pretty rough. Dad's best mate went the same way in his 50s after a struggle with bowel cancer. We also found out on the weekend that his daughter (early 30s) has just been diagnosed with bowel cancer too...

Last I heard funeral for Todd is going to be on Friday.

Primary school reunion? Haha. Now I've heard it all.

Haha we were a very tight class. Only about 20 of us in the grade...

You should ring her and tell her to stop opening her mouth so wide while on tv.

[Morgan]

Wide mouth is wide

[skillionaire]

You could call her Mrs Bass?

Morning Lads,

Morgan - that is really sad mate! Guess that being 'fit and healthy' simply does not always prevent these things. Such a young age!

That's the way...kick 'em while they're down...

The State Government's yearly take from parking meters at five public hospitals will jump 73 per cent over three years as the Health Department more than doubles daily staff parking fees by 2014.

Shit news Morgan. Sorry to hear.

I'm with Nick on the school reunion!

I did a bit of car stuff Saturday, did a service on a mates Foz, took his resonator out. Then washed my car, it was filthy!!! Looks so much better now!

I done bugger all over the weekend.

Saturday morning, i went and cleaned my car, top to bottom. Fitted new floor mats. Went home and cleaned my house top to bottom, and threw out heaps of old shit. Went to the meet Sat night, blew away a Golf and WRX hatch, then went home and played COD.

Sunday, went and tinted a Mirage, then came home to my missus, her friend, and her sister all sitting in my loungeroom doing a Jersey Shore marathon or someshit. So i went and drank beer.
