With the Voice that "Super Sally" has..........I follow her anywhere!!
There has been a couple of times when I have had to override her instructions. However 99.9999 times I think she is right!! Maybe I just hope she is right. Who cares........she's the only female that talks nicely to me these days!!
I wonder if I can get her to talk dirty to me??
Maybe I could adapt dirty things to what she does say to me.
You've done it to me again Delta18........I'm having brainthrusts........................

One thing I do know........................
It is a hell of a lot better than trying to follow Daisy reading a street directory!!
Watching her trying to get the book in the same direction as we are travelling is a hoot!! Then comes the abuse when we turn a corner and she doesn't quite get which way to turn the page. LOL

implicitly, we've had some of our bestest trips when "naggin nancy" took over navigation, didnt know where the hell I was and didnt really care, just poke in "no highways" and "not shortest route" and head into backroad country!
always got there in the end

Guru was in Tassie and his passenger had to keep their legs up on the seat as they were going through a great mass of water.
They were actually on one of the main roads south.

I normally use "Aussie Ken" as my voice as I can't handle two females in the car telling me where to go, lol
Thats when I offer to get out and push.
When I want a laugh or a bit of variety I get the Ozzie Osborne voice to guide me. He has some colourful ways of giving directions believe me.

As long as it is only your brain that I get "thrusting" Duckie I will be happy. If I want more I'll meet you in my "going out" clothes
Lol, and I always carry an alfoil condom just in case.

One of us is going to be in pain..............
I really worry about you Delta18. I think it's the purple shoes. Thankfully you are a long way away from me. LOL
I think it is pretty gay to have a man tell you where to go, driving the car anyway :)

To get back on track,[if that's Ok guys] I was sent an E-mail of the STREMNAYA ROAD, in BOLIVIA. Its' nickname is THE ROAD OF DEATH. I can't post it here,[ I've tried] but if any-one is interested in seeing it, just Google it. I'm surprised some people don't die of fright just thinking about driving it.
Cheers, xina.

I've seen that email Xina........isn't it hairy. Top photos of it. Hard to believe it is one of their "national" roads. I would NOT like to drive that!!

The photo from Delta18 reminds me of the old dirt road that followed the Snowy River . I did it years ago in a Cruiser and campa trailer. If I met anybody coming the other way I would just have to push him over the side to the river some 200 metres down. No way to reverse or pass. Size is important!!

Hety Delta. Didn't I see you in the birdcage at the Melbourne Cup in that outfit???? Never forget a pair of legs like that! Our Tom is fairly trustworthy. only problem we had with him was he didn't recognise the road from the Lasseter Highway to Kings Canyon. Complete mystery. Terro

Neither would I Disco. That first photo on this thread by the way, as well as the Bolivian ones, can be found if you Google Most Dangerous Roads.

Looking at you falling all over the place I am surprised you remember my legs, but thanks anyway, I'm flattered (or flattened lol)
