Time for a beer or 50

Also finding there's heaps I want to do on the house, and quite enjoy. Haha feels like I'd just got the car almost perfect! Bloke who bought it seems really nice and like he will appreciate it. Something grippier and lighter that should be fun on a daily basis hopefully coming soon. 1

But came down with a stomach thing tonight. Maybe I'm having a physical reaction to selling the FG [emoji23]

Took it out through the Cotter this arvo - amazing how early you can get on the power through the corner. Fun to be manual too - my last manual was an XF that was so sloppy you couldn't tell whether it was in gear or neutral. Still very sad to watch the FG go. Put a lot of time into it and was a hugely fun car to have.
