man would be soo down for it, but we have walkthroughs at a few houses tomorow.... but have been given a pasout for world time attack this year :D

[fantapants]

ooooh yeah and i was soooo totally psyched, the first modded car i saw in launy was daim in his "whateverthefuckthatthingisicantremember" some random old guy in a rental xr6 honking at him probably didnt register though :D

[worked]

daims cressida?
pretty much depends what your looking for
being launceston you'll find dickheads everywhere, on the west side of the river it's nicer, from Kings meadows to Prospect to Summerhill to West Laun to Trevallyn (ohhh the memories) to Riverside to Legana (i've laid that out as if your driving through launceston via riverside going north, starting at KM obviously), you'll pay more but probs get a better house, quite neighborhood.
on the east newstead ain't bad, daim lived there for a while, St Leonards, Ravenswood and Rocherlea however, hang your two UFC title belts out the front and you'll get along fine
i wouldn't raise kids or leave your wife alone there however. premium place to shift drugs tho....so i've heard. mowbray and waverley are pretty bad too unfortunately. you'll find quiet streets and nice houses, but the local shops are always full of dickheads, of this i assure you
i'm keen to come say hi when i'm back from kalgoorlie. be good to meet you.
drifters are a rare species in launceston.

oh, and welcome!!! with some mint drift spots that barely get touched anymore (aside from the northwest where they session the fuck outta anything with a bit of a bend in it till SWAT comes in to get them) and people like delazy putting huge efforts into our drift series it's a great place to live and i miss it so much!!

[fantapants]

yeah the roads around here are everything i have been hoping for.

we went to look at a house in frankford, and it was fucking awesome as....... except for the madmax compound next door. i shit you not, it was a fort made with abandoned busses and shipping containers.... then we were heading to deloraine to look at a place in elizabeth tow. The gps got all kinds of confused and i didnt really pick it till we nearly hit cradle mountian :) Wasted 3 hours, but fuck it was a great drive.

ideally we want something a little out of town, but our timing has been a bit shit, the house we were going to be staying in while we built will soon have its owners living in it again.... things would be tight lol.

found a great block of land in llala... but dont know if we can afford the time to get anything built....

we stumbled on a rental in lilydale that was ok with dogs, but were a day late in ringing. :S

real keen to get my ke70 tas worthy and hitting as many of the local roads as possible :)

one question, whats the go with all the teenagers in the mall? am i so old they just look like school kids, or does no one go to school round here? :)

so true...dnt think ive laughed so hard in awhile...

[fantapants]

whats beaconsfield like? its a bit of a stretch in distance, but im used to brissy commute times where an hour is fine either way. So a 30 min drive is just a fun way to start the morning :) found a grouse lil place with a kicker shed :D ....

[worked]

beacy is good, there is a goldmine there so when that booms house prices go up, which will maybe happen soon with a new company buying it out and a quarry starting up nearby and maybe a nickel mine jus up the road
prob a good investment house
plus there are mint roads nearby (shhhh)
it's a nice quiet little town too

[biggo]

believe it or not, im now looking at housing prices in tas

hmmm

[biggo]

Fuck me! 3 bed brick homes for under 200k

hmmmm

[worked]

tassie has a no poser policy, heavily enforced at the spirit of tasmania and all airport terminals
the people in the mall fanta is talking abut is like our 'detention centre' with all our posers waiting to be shipped out
application forms to come here are available, but with very strict enforcement once granted approval, josh how, daim shelton or a nominated field service member will come and inspect your tyres once a week to make sure your actually chalking them occasionally, new technology has allowed us to weed out those who just do a static burnout to try and scam the system
government incentives that will be put in place soon to do a traineeship at 'not being crap' will allow you to relocate, but waiting periods are high, and the paperwork is quite involved
best of luck with it all biggo

[biggo]

So my absenteeisum has been noted. Must attend more often.

Im going to muse over this thought of moving to tassie for a bit. If i come down for a holiday, do i need to apply for a 'field trip' day pass?

[fantapants]

Hey "noshit2jbiggus" if this place in deloriane goe through, it has a real rustic like cabin that is self contained you could stay at for however long :)

[biggo]

Are there fine drinking establishments in Tassie? I found some Tas bitter at my local and now slowly drinking my way through them. i

[fantapants]

they serve cider on tap if that helps.

and most of the bouncers are women.... big rugby union playing women....

Non-Tassie people: "Bus" is what a car is reffered to in Tassie.

You should see what a "truck" means.

Toro's is pretty good too, they do a steak challenge if you're up to eating a 1kg or 2kg steak.

[worked]

[matt99]

Ed, whos the bloke you were living with in Leg? Saw him half way up the Midland last weekend, his face when he saw me was similar to yours when your about to let off.
