If you are on the Club Fb page ...

Plenty aren't on Facebook and won't be either, so best advise whoever runs that page to also post such notices here on the Forum.

The day and Central Coast runs were great, the traffic both ways M7, M2 and Pennent Hills Rd were total f×/#$& b#$!'#×+:.

Before M2/7 I could do Cecil Hills to Bateau Bay in 1 3/4 hrs.

When Wyong Rd upgraded to dual divided carrageway with roundabouts, M2 and then M7 just completed that time came down to 1hr 10 to 1hr15 minites.

Took 2hrs on M2 and strangley M7 coming home, no work, breakdowns or any such thing on M7, but traffic crawled.

The RTA needs to regulate any vehicle 2tons GVM and over into the LEFT LANE ONLY and fine a $1000 per breach.
They have cameras on the M7, maybe a years fines may pay for a third lane. They have this system in Europe and it works across borders.
If Europe can agree across borders, why cant this be mandated here, they regulate and fine everything else.

And for those of you who picked up on the use of RTA - thats deliberate, they can change their name, but they cant cover up their stripes.

Hey watch that "old" bit, and remember "your only as old as the woman you feel". (My mum used to say that).

AND. (I had to look it up as its not in my general use mental thesaurus)

Thats a double superlative, a curmudgeon is an "old crusty" person.

As my father used to say "son I may not be always right, BUT  I'm never wrong".

So, a double superlative must make you doubly old? :lol:
I think if I say....the RTA, the MSB, the DLI, the BLF, the 21st squad etc and you remember them, then you’re old....like me  :therethere:
I like your father’s saying. Mind if I steal it for use with junior? I will anyway  :kickass:

Yes the 21st. I remember when they started extended operations in the Eastwood/Hornsby area. The Ole Man told me to play elsewhere, and avoid them like the plague. From memory all were 6ft 4" or bigger,  me at only 6ft 1" with little weight would make a nice person to "help with investigations"........

Interesting types they were . I played football in the late 60`s with two persons who were in the squad.

Yes, they were a scary bunch. Back in the days of respect.
Respect for the coppers,teachers,elders,parents, etc,etc...
Take away discipline (a kick up the bum from the cops, the cane at school, a flogging from the folks) and you get what we have today. No way would anyone give a cop any lip back then.

And great car pics.
