ha ha joe ya cracker ..

nice car tho !

it was annie, the car was only a few years old when i bought it for $11,500.00

the A9X when new in 1977 was that price from the dealers, held it's value and crept up ever since

an average one these days can set you back about $125,000.00 

that one pictured had original panama green paint, straight as a die

sweet to drive

wish i still had it

I didn't even notice the spider 'till you mentioned it. Good eye!

with the Folio books, sometimes they pop up on eBay, but they usually appreciate in value.

they also tend to be printed then disappear after a while, but the Fairy books have stayed in print for ages.

I buy when they have half price sales or special offers, where if you buy four books you get a free set. That kind of thing.

the first time you buy they have introductory offers which are worth a look. There are minimum books to buy to get freebies, but other than that, it isn't a requirement to buy so many a year or anything.

being a member just means they send you offers now and then.

Am, your photo - we had tea in a little restaurant across the road from your grass - can't remember the name but we both really liked it, we were staying at the hotel on the water there.

Pimpy, I think your mug shot is almost perfect. Really great composition and the focus on the green one alone is just fantastic. I love it.

I don't usually kudo until Monday arvo when most entries are in but this time I couldn't resist 🙂

thanks Lurker. I only took two shots and got it right on the second shot. Often I have to take about 8 shots to get one I like.

I have had breakfast at that hotel, with lovely views over the harbour (a Thai restaraunt was in that space previously). It is a great spot.

The grass isn't looking too green at present. There were lots of brown spots and thin spots. I had hoped to get more of the grassed area in the photo, but it was a bit patchy.

The restaurant wasn't in the hotel, it was next door on the street directly across from the water, it was small, great food and service, Italian.

LOL Polly, now if only I could find Wally as easy as I did the spidey.
