Dear Santa ...
It's getting near to that time of year when we all hope that Santa will bring us some nice things for our D3. I'll be writing to Santa for the following:
(1) Two new sets of tyres (Grabber AT2 for every day and Goodyear MT/R for off-road).
(2) A Mantec plate.
(3) A RAI.
(4) A roof rack and rear ladder.
(6) A winch.
... and I'd better stop there.
All this talk of Santa reminds me that our Aussie members have their own approach to "Dear Santa" letters: (YouTube link to Kevin Bloody Wilson's Santa Claus song. I've removed it rather than have someone's kid open it. Apologies. )

Santa has already dont the leg work for me,,,,,,BRAND NEW EXPO from TLO
My Santa List is a lot smaller now though
1. Genuine LR D3 Spotlights.
2. Spotlights for Expo rack
3. Cycle carriers x 2 for Expo
I asked Santa for an Uncle Ray plate and (s)he agreed...
That was a mistake - I should've asked for the things SWMBO (er...I mean Santa) will see. The underbody plate will be hidden...
Oh, and I asked Santa to get NJF a winch as well. That way I won't need one... The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Club "yes, I too have had the compressor replaced..."

Club "yes, I too have had EPB failure..."
Club "yes, I too get mysterious bings and bongs..."

Mrs NJF slapped me about the room and told me to fit parental control to the computer, to prevent such debauchery as Kevin B Wilson ever from entering our house again. She's written a letter to Santa to tell him what a naughty chap I am.

I
wonder if my daughter-in-law would still talk to me if I teach my 5 yo grand-daughter and her 2 year old
Steven, how could she be mad at you for bringing in a bit of Australian culture to the grandies.
Saw him on Denton last week. My attitude has not changed. He was funny. (20 years ago when I heared it for the first time).Did you think I would leave you crying,
When there's room in my D3 for 7,
Climb in here Joe we'll soon be flying,
I can go just as fast with 7.
