aitsa maar julle gaan groot assi omie weg is -- die skip-reis was BAIE lekker dankie. [en nei ek offi Dwerrrgie het george geroep of kat geskiet 'ie :-))]

Re die vul van tenk: Ek het 'n standaard opdrag: Fill till "auto-stop" and then round off the cents to the nearest rand" [en dan kom daai klipspringerjagtersonderheenkome nog steeds en "fill it to the brim"

Nou klim ek self uit en hou toesig - want die hoeveelheid petrol wat uitloop by my tenk as hy oorvol is .. eisjjj, ek kon virri Dwerrrgie 'n draai-rooomys gekoop het met daai dollars.

I used to do this but got tired and eventually just double clicked it all. I hate that diesel stain on my clean car when leaving on a trip

Roy as you may have seen, my car doesn't get washed too often.

I beleive the layer of mud adds extra protection againste branch-scratches. That't my story and I'm sticking to it. :rolling:
