A week on K'gari / Fraser Island ........

[Sun Ra]

Just spent a week herbing around on K'gari. Just some fishing from the beach, camping, drinking, getting stoned. The usual.

In April I pulled the pin on a new Suzuki Jimny for some stupid reason. Plan on using it for gorilla grows .....

Looks like this .......

Nah, no probs, they only weigh 1,000kgs so they're as light as fuck.

Yeah, went with a mate - no kids. Also that's why I took a ball to play fetch with them.

I thought if you give them a feed, they leave you alone. Am I right ?

They are a bit gutless but they're a real old school drive, I got a manual - haven't had one in 20 years since an
old Peugeot 404 wagon with a column shift. It's fun. You actually know you're driving something.

I would actually like a long wheelbase one with just 2 doors and it needs a better motor maybe.

My cat likes to sit on the spare tyre on the back door .......

The 2 door ones are made in Japan, the 4 doors in India. Will be interesting to see the build quality comparison.
The labour in India is a lot cheaper which should bring down the price on the 4 door model on what it would have
been out of Japan.
