Post by: cookey on September 21, 2013, 07:22:44 PM: Great photos.........keep them coming ;) ;) ;)
absolutely love the first image looking out along the Diamond Reo bonnet. Reminds me of the one I used to own (was converted to a tipper). Sadly it came to grief when a banking collapsed---ended up on it's side about 20 metres below.
