I knew i'd find this thread if i sat around bludging enough. Did you teach the missus to drive...
I'm starting to doubt that it is you who is unlucky.. I think it is the ute. Get a wagon and your luck will change - But put in a rollcage first.

P.S Has got acquainted with the girl, http://cyberblady.com, how it to you? Only it is fair!

Beej - Don't know where it came from, it started today, i have searched my profile to try to find it and it's not there,
I tried to open the page and i can't, apparently i'm just advertising for it.
Don't know - probably one to many dodgy web sites:thumb: :thumb:

Hello Mrs Ravo, very pleased to meet you (forum-ly, of course)! I'm terribly impressed that at your own initiative you decided to learn to drive a manual - most silly girlfriends I've had needed to be carefully, gently encourage to learn to drive manuals. So, in my eyes, YOU ROCK - and don't worry, I think Ravo realises it too, he'll forgive you in no time!
