    Well theres no need for me to worry about scratching my new Prado at Icy Creek this weekend.
    A big metal sign blew over today and landed on my car !!!!!!
    So a dent and a nice scrape to my front wing :evil:
    (plus I nearly rolled it on a steep off camber sand dune at Lancelin yesterday, but we wont talk about that) ops:

        I was working in North Perth, unfortunatley there was more damage than I first thought, there is a big crease to the frame above the driver door and also another dent further down. Looks like an insurance job.

        It was a builders signboard that fell down so I wonder if I could claim against the builders public liability? I wasnt working for the builder I was working for the house owner, I dont even know who the builder was (I'll have to nip back and read THE BLOODY SIGN)

          Not good news pomp

          Looks like a relaxing weekend would be in order. :wink:

          I would probably ring your insurer and they would advise you whether you can claim against the builder

                        shortcut?

                        A little bit of water & everyones resolve starts to dilute

                        I've always come into this area before from Dwellingup but I see from the Mudmap that Nanga Rd approach can come directly from Waroona. Anyone tried this direction before & is it quicker (coming from Metro area of course)?

                          I would say it is not quicker, Plus from memory it is dirt. I would think the quickest way would be from dwellingup, and if you know the way there is a shortcut that comes into dwellingup from the north. been on it with the bike, some nice twisties.
                          Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.

                            If you hang a left into Del Park Rd at North Dandalup you get to cut into Dwellingup from (almost) North ... and it save you the hassle of the drive into Pinjarra ..... and like Jeff says .. its a great drive.

                            Cheers
