raised by monkeys · 10-07-2007, 04:52 PM

okay i know this is an E-series section, but i may as well put this thread in here cause i not only own an e-series but i only visit e-series.

a long tim ago, in a galaxy far away....

(long story cut short)

Fiance' + me go to dinner & organise wedding reception. choose champagne for the reception and decide to get some to try. (i hadnt had anything to eat all day after waking up at 7 to work on an assignment and playing golf and winning the day - YAY) had 3 glasses of champagne and send meal back - ordered kingfish and got sushi. left car in carpark. met mate at a party and had 4 brews. went to fiance's place, pick up car 3 1/2 hours later. pulled over + blew .012. 6 month on the spot. court 25th june, judge says 4 month from now which = 25th october license back. only had 3 points left but lost 5 due to DUI. so service SA say 3 month ban for holding a license cause of losing all demerit points which starts when i finish sentence from court which then = December 25th = Jesus' birthday so then license = January 2nd when service sa open again. sooooo..... i have applied for a good behaviour bond license which last for a year on 1 point, can still do 110km on the highway but 0% alcohol limit... I WANT TO DRIVE MY CAR DAMMIT.

so at the moment im having my interior totally re-done in black and charcoal velour and black carpet. gotta get tyres for my 19's new brake calipers and braided brake lines and new exedy h/duty clutch. have a bit of paint done... and i will take some photos if the bloody thing ever gets done. then maybe a long time from now rebuilt and worked motor or rebuilt and forced induction.

Ahh, the age-old mod catalyst: losing one's licence. Make the best of the bad situation

Oh yeah... I'd like to kindly thank QLD transport for giving me 6 months with which to work on my car, without being able to drive it, hence allowing many long term mods to be performed

gee... like i'd be really upset and embarassed by your harshening words.

Its not as if i havnt accepted what i did was wrong.
Drink driving is not weekend hobby of mine. planning my wedding over a meal i didnt eat and organising the groomsmen with the best man over a couple of beers... and its not like i was on a weekend bender.

ok for instance, i finished my last night shift in roxby downs 3 weeks ago, had 6-7 cans of bourbon and cola and waited half hour and then blew .004.

Do you think that a couple of drinks 3 1/2 hours of drinking water watching tv on a normal occassionand is enough for any person of any size to put them over the limit?

Go police your children you amish veteran.

i know this is meant to be about my car but... dude! the course is sic. when i post photos of my car interior, probably at the end of this week i'll post a couple from my mobile phone of the course from the clubhouse balcony. i had my engagement party up top and it was so nice.

same here... and ive been playing golf for a while. whats your name?

it was about 2004 they started the re-vamp of the course. the course was previously privately owned and is now owned by the whyalla council, so now any run off water (gutters and drains) is added with treated sewearge water. starting with the front 9 they dug in about 2 inches deep to pull up any limestone and crap dirt, re-soiled and re-grassed. the 2nd hole that once was similar the flinstones golf course is now lushes and green. did the same with the back 9. looks great.

the photos of my blue money whore ef should look good on it (to keep the conversation e-series).

when i have my license i'd like to come to adelaide on a ford or just e-series cruise.
