I needed a new avatar and had a little spare time this afternoon.  What do you think of the result??  Pretty flash eh.???   Am I any good or what??


I used the spare time to commission Smokeydk to make this avatar.

What a ripper!!   Onya Smokeydk................Thanks HEAPS!!

Should any of you want a new avatar feel free to contact me..............send the cheque or money order to me and I will pass half to Smokey and he gets the pleasure of doing the work.  Fair Deal..............I think so.


You obviously need an agent Dave.  LOL

Thanks again!!

No avatar day Rosey??

Mate.......without knowing what system you are running with what software it is fairly difficult to guess the problem. Does it happen often??

I like it. You're much more handsome than that bloke standing by the campfire.

Just like my "Cruising Granny" - a portrait of the real thing.

You know Granny................I worked that out about your avatar. Is that a wart I see on the end of your nose?? Never mind.......Ibbo will remove it when he does ALL the rest of the surgery. LOL Just Kidding Granny!! Jut my little joke!!






The surgery goes on.......but the wart stays.!!



But you are right.......that bloke next to the fire is not really that flash!!   I just had another look at him. Actually I should apologise to all for leaving it there for so long!!
(I wonder if a mother could STILL love it ?? )

It would only be a mother who could love it, and maybe a loving wife.

Mr Duck I am really impressed with you new avatar! Shame you had to spoil it with the vehicle in the background. Only joking, the vehicle should have been a Patrol!!!!! Nicely done though would probably look good on your spare wheel cover!

Onya Sir Terro............

Just have to love the shopping don't you??

Getting back to the avatar............I am so impressed with my effort!! You have no idea about the amount of work involved here.!!

Took me ten seconds to Talk Smokeydk in to doing that. Did I do good??

mines the same Rose, no piccy's, I'm running windows vista home premium with internet explorer 8

cant see avatars or piccys! but in the case of that bloody Duck by the fire it was a good thing!

turn the putey on and get the bejabbers frightened out of me!!

"changed my explorer across to firefox and all becomes clear",

a shame mister duck that you inadvertantly left a wreck in the background, surely a little adobe magic could remove that old bomb from the picture

bloody blacks must have left it laying around and the council hasnt had time to clear it as yet, shame!

I have finally worked it out DaveO..............took me awhile, but.................

"You just don't have a clue!!"

If you haven't worked out what a good car is by now, then you are beyond help!!

However I do have to agree with you about the fella standing by the fire.  Oh well.....we can't all be good looking AND drive a good 4wd. I opted for the car!!

It has to be self praise week for the Duck Ibbo.. It's the only way he gets any.

I suppose if he did something to deserve it he might get more??

No ruffled feathers here mate.......I'v had experts have a go at me LOL


Believe it or not.......these are better than the originals off road. I have owned Landies for a lot of years and this one is best off road.

This is a picture of my previous Landy

cant see it, explorer playing up again, I installed firefox to see the avatars but I had some other problems with it, mucked about with the comb ground clearance and navigation program so I unistalled it, not my putey so I cant muck about with it too much

I had a defender for a while, not bad but electronics let it down

we dont get them much above port augusta, not enough parts backup for them

but if you are getting a good run then thats good enough!

I like "Duck Off" Justcruisin.

The reason I like the Landies is because the rules say......"You can't work on an old Land Rover without a carton of beer" ...........and I NEVER break the rules.

I had one that I put a 186 in. It was pretty good. ex army 2A. I put a long range tank in th back and an overdrive.

But if I were to do it again I would put a cross-flow 250 falcon motor and a pair of Range Rover diffs into it. The Rangie diffs are 25% higher geared. That would do away with the need for an overdrive. (Screaming heaps of crap they were but necessary) I saw one once and it went really nicely.

I was brought up in Kenya and South Africa and we had Landies since I was 5.
