Ash, my apologies. I had forgotten all about you (it is so long since I have seen any of your work; I must inhabit different threads to you. Actually I'm trying to inhabit threads less often, and take more pictures [as well as clean up my desk])

You might not see much of me, but I do see much of you.

Photography will always be a passion, but it has its time and place.

Nice Ash. A wagon. My first car was a wagon, and my current daily driver is also.

What make of car is that?

Looks like a Skoda to me,they are good for carrying Canetoads in the back.

It is indeed a Skoda. You might think of them as a cheaper Czech-built VW (whereas an Audi is a more-expensive VW) but they're good in their own right. A community organisation I'm involved with bought three Skodas a couple of years ago, and the drivers found them (the Yeti, mini-SUV) a lot easier to drive than the bloated Kia Sportages we previously had, and from the administrative viewpoint they were cheaper to run, especially as there were fewer parking dings to fix.

Being an old man, I like Skoda's!

Nothing like an invasive species to fill up cargo space.

He only takes the RED ones, they make a Skoda Fast!

Hi Laurie, welcome to the forum

What about an old hot rod!

laurie02 · 02-20-2018, 06:43 PM

Well I don't think people would appreciate it if I put up a picture of my hot rod!

I don't know, I'm sure someone will be into Datsun 120Y's.

BTW Laurie,

the K200 USB data cable is available online, it is not a standard USB cable, looks like it's proprietary

The Camry is the color of a bandaid, and has the same chick pulling power...but I can't believe you have all missed the innuendo of " Hot Rod"
