The Tigra proved its stunt car credentials today, with out me even driving. Was up at at clients place, when I heard the call, "John, your cars rolling down the road." I hit the door with the thongs coming off and got to the top of the drive way just in time to see it kick up over an enbankment and disappear!
At the bottom of a 4 foot drop was a driveway with a flimsy gate across some building materials. Luckily, the drop must have taken most of the speed off and the wheels being well back in the car, meant that the rear end was not damaged in the fall. This left it with a short distance to the fence and soft-ish building materials to take the impact.
I guess there is some damage their somewhere, but the bumper has minor scratches, and the wing mirror has popped his hinge somehow....

from Ghandi I
do not want my house to be walled in on
all sides and my windows to be stuffed.
I want the culture of all lands to be blown
about my house as freely as possible.
Pretty much my life... and I love it.

G Coverage
Telstra Next G coverage continues to impress. Using my Tu500 handset,
I have been able to get on the net at high speed at various places.
The latency of the network also seems very low when I get on. Very
nice.
Come stay on my cat using Couchsurfing.com Couch
surfing is a world wide network of free
beds and a great way to meet people and
emerse yourself in the local culture. I offer accommodation on my sailing catamaran through this great web site:
Says
it all : "Sailing" by Christopher Cross
It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me
It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
