G'day!

Hello all

I'm down under in Sydney at the mo' and got a chance to log on and see what's happening. Sad to report that I've only seen 1 Holden Vectra in 5 days, although it was a GSi, or whatever they're known as here. Some lovely V8 growlers about. The HSV stuff sounds amazin' (think TVR on steroids!) and I like the new Ford Falcon, too! The TV ad for the new Falcon is brilliant. Lots of familiar but different cars about e.g. the Mazda 3 is a saloon, rather than a hatch and the Mitsibushi Lancer comes in flavours other than Evo. There's even a coupe version, which looks pretty good.

I'm just north of Cairns now staying in a beachfront apartment. The weather is rubbish ( not really ). Temperature is in the mid thirties and I've got a sunburnt head, being a baldie!! Went out on a boat yesterday to the Great Barrier Reef and got completely frazzled by the sun. That's why I'm indoors on the manager's PC.

Oh, forgot to mention; still not seen another C. If Holden are dropping it, it's no wonder!

Holden have a deal going at the mo' where you can buy a car at the same price as a Holden employee. Haven't seen any prices, but I guess the deals are good?
