    Are you a gravel road grader JB?, what a cool job. If so, which roads do you grade?

    Had a chat to the grader driver on the Peninsular development road up Cape York last year over the CB, very helpful chappy.

    What town is your shack? I live on the murray. (Renmark)

    Other hobbies of mine include:
    Coin and note collecting. (not a cheap hobby!)
    Scalextric slot cars!
    Camping
    Dirtbikes
    Work? haha!!! It seems to take up more of my hobby time so i gather it means its a hobby?

    This is the track we are extending at the moment. Converted to digital!. About to install a pit lane and also finish off all the scenery. Its my hobby with my lad (10 years old)

    G'day Ab, bit of everything, contract to local station mostly & bit of town & farm work.
    Anything where I can still wear thong-boots & have the rifle & fishing rod in the cab is preferred.

    I live in a hobby block of 115 acres about 10k's out of town. I do a bit of steer wrestling and roping at a few rodeos here and there, have been breeding a few Texas Longhorns for a while.
    Our house is about 100 years old and has had major renovations over the last 3 years, restumped, reroofed, and pretty much everything in between, so got involved in that here and there. Now doing a bit of landscaping/gardening to go with it. Always a bit fencing, horse & cattle work to do.
    I work away, 2 wks on, 2 wks off, so get a bit done on days off.
    Do a bit of shooting, tabbing at home, bit of water sports in the boat with the teenagers when they're home from boarding school.
    Love music as well, been very slowly trying to teach myself guitar, need to make more time.
    Pretty much a regular life for a middle ager from the bush I reckon.

    I've joined the local sporting car club and participate in lap dashes and hill climbs in my region.
    Not that competitive in my class because my car falls into categories that puts it up against WRX's and EVO's, and my car is pretty standard engine wise, but nonetheless, I still have great fun.
    Weapon of choice, 93 Liberty RS Turbo.
