Red Rocket/ Radio Flyer

Hi my name is wokka and i like turtles.

i only recently found out that it's not normal to have a tail, the sound of her laughter is still ringing in my ears

my early years were spent in the Australian outback, driving beat up valiants (slant 6 and 3 on the tree) around the top paddock, somehow managing to hit the only tree in a 5 acre field almost everytime

tonight i am having breakfast for dinner, because breakfast is way too good to be wasted on the morning
I have a pet goldfish called woof, he enjoys long walks with me

woof doesn't like mike. but as they normally stay out of each others way, so it's not too bad

you may ask who is mike?
thats my secret, and none of your business

i never had the opportunity to learn the harmonica, this upsets me, because it's easily the coolest instrument ever
i dream of taking one on an airplane, and having a captive audience for a full 14 hours on the flight from Dubai to Sydney.
in my dream, they give me the key to the city when i land


Things I Like:

i like the noise small children make when you hit them and they fall down,
(old people make much the same noise ?!?! but not people in the middle, i wonder why?).
I like my goldfish woof, and he likes me.
Carving replicas of skyscapers from vegetables.



Things I Dislike:

Balloon animals, its not a Giraffe its a bent up balloon!
Fat people who aren't jolly, (fat people have to be jolly its the LAW!)
Hangovers!!!
Sad clowns (clowns are supposed to be funny!!!!!)
Small sticks with pointy ends.


If i could turn myself invisible, i would fly to france, and beat a mime to death, could you imagine the round of applause?!?! 




To be honest i only came here cos i was told that Tuesdays is chocolate cake with with sprinkles day.

Now that we all know each other...

Ahem





I picked this little thing up a few days back, I've always been a fan of simple things, I don't need no electronic nagging wife in the back seat saying "You can't do that, I'm going to take half your power" plus I has a slightly wild Daihatsu F55 back in the day.

I live over in the sandpit, and now the summer is finally coming to a close, I figured it was time to get a chariot to take me away from all the fake people and 5* hotels on the weekends.

Mods to date;
Front bar by previous owner with indicators/foglamps held in with sikaflex, lamps are cross eyed and aimed at the sky....
Ugly as sin rims on 30mm spacers by same muppet
Mods tonight (see what I did there?)
2" ironman Lift kit
Ironman steering stabilizer
Rear seats out
Interlock foam pads cut to size with cutouts for 2 isofix bars to give me some temporary tie fown points until i build my drawer system
Ironman awning went on, but with the plastic roof rails it was flopping around like a donkeys proverbial, so it's off until I can fab up some cross bars.

Got a few goodies on order, so once they come in, I'll be spinning wrenches again.

Shiny side up

Can you please make up a care package of whatever meds you are on and send it my way, thank you! Don't see many Jimny in blood red but i really like it, not sure about the chrome rims though. You would like the opening of Once Upon A Time In The West, the harmonica in that is a serious instrument Welcome.

When I started reading that OP I thought I had spent too long in the sun! :laugh:

Thanks 0.18333333333etc (I can see why you shortened your name to 11/60, it's much easier to type)
Unfortunately there is no care package to send, my mum says I'm a little bit different, and tend to get excitable and just randomly wander off in my own head while talking to people. If a human year equals 7 dog years, does that mean they stay awake for a week at a time?

O.U.A.T.I.T.W. is a good movie, but while the harmonica in it is good, its certainly no Borrah Minevitch and his Harmonica Rascals.

1066, the sun is a good source of vitamin D, or was it E??? Any who, it's one of them

Upthedate

Ironman canopy
37"curved led bar
2" seat mod to help jam a 6'4" ginger in there
Various little things to make camping easier

In other news, just had to pay duty on my parts from Jimnybits, so some moe spanner swinging is on the cards
