I also note that the GPS says David was driving on "Mt Panorama Scenic Drive" -- which it is 360 days of the year.
The speed limit on Con-Rod Straight is 60 km/h! :shock:
I think I hold the lap record for motorhomes on Mt Panorama: 9min 58sec!
That is, the record for the slowest lap... in our then carriage: a SWB 4cyl Coaster. I reached 35km/h across the top. :o
Of course, I obeyed the 60 limit down Con-Rod... ;) :D

I can assure you that I didn't break the speed limit on Conrod Straight. I do have a pic showing 44kmh.
Here is a pic of Bandit doing what he does best.

David,
Our two are just a teensy bit more active than Bandit when awaiting Dinnertime...
In fact, der Beagle's stomach-clock is often running a bit fast. He tells me it's dinnertime (1600h) at about 1515! Pandemonium ensues until it IS dinnertime...

Are you SURE you didn't exceed the Con-Rod speed limit?? Gravity can sometimes take over, y'know...;)
Regards & God bless,
Ray

Not when the bride is screaming stuff about bends and brakes and can't see where the road is going etc etc. But I must confess that I have, many years ago I exceeded the speed limit on Con Rod straight and probably every other road that we drove on at the time. Luckily for me and most of my D...H... mates we are still alive. Couldn't/ wouldn't do it these days though.
I would put up a pic of Bandit when he getting his dinner but it is pretty hard to get a shot in focus when he is jumping 3-4 feet off the ground. Will give it a try when the G Kids are here next.
Cheers

Surprisingly good clarity for such a difficult situation!
Congratulations Bernie!!

Yahoo, I won something...

What we should have got was a pic of me pulling Chis out from under the bus by the legs, someone actually drove past while that was in progress.
Good thing she had undies on...

Cheers.

I plan to stop procrastinating tomorrow.
